Table 230B - AEBBA Table 2

[Chris_Sav]

230B
Flat slate but poorly dressed (rough and no shine to surface), wooden surround in poor battered condition and has been reinforced, I may need a lot of plastic wood on this one to give me a more even surface to staple on the wooden surround.

The pictures give you some idea of the amount of chalk that gets through the cloth over time especially when they are not regularly brushed when used.

Recovered, slate and cushions OK, slate is very tight in the surround and there is a considerable longitudonal sag, thin wedges to be inserted under frame alongside the fifty holes.

Recover completed, still sags a touch longitudinally.

This was table 10 at the Surrey open and, although the break was not quite as easy as some of the other tables, it played quite nicely.

I found that the leatherette at the baulk end was a little loose. I bridge off the leatherette and as I leaned forward to take my shots, it gave slightly, which was a bit disconcerting until I got used to it. :-/

Table 10 at the Surrey Open, the reason the break was a little harder is because the Red Spot is slightly to the right which makes the break quite thin or need more left on the break.

Replaced leg socket at Bournemouth which had broken loose.

Looks like top has been given a jolt recently as hairline crack left of centre and some of plaster filler broken away, Braced slate.

Dave Ingram reports a sharp bounce on right cushion breaks

Bournemouth 2015 Saturday and the break got more difficult as the day went on. Slate is convex in front right quadrant, slackened the brace slightly and set the front right hand corner slightly high on the level. No problems Sunday and Phil C. hit a 20k break on it. Recommend right corner is set slightly high on future use.

Knick on cloth, front left quadrant, cannot think how else but from a coin toss, same on four tables!
