    And a regular replacement of the cushions always serves to enjoy playing. Nothing depresses more than a ball that falls asleep on the way.

    But if you have to make the rails new and the old rubbers are bad, you should consider cutting the new rails so that the K66 fits on them. This is a profile that you can get anywhere in the accessories trade. The result is optically the same, only the cushions can be changed without problems in the future.

    regards, Valero

    John- that is also my guess. In the decades after the war, steel was much rarer and more expensive in many countries than in America. Also machines to deform this steel. However, the upper pockets corners cannot be handcrafted in the large quantities that the factory requires. As an alternative, only a strip of sheet metal was mounted on the board where the player could put his cigarette down. In poorer countries, therefore, very little steel was used on pool tables and other machines such as jukeboxes. It was then often improvised with other materials.

    When you rebuild the rails you have to pay close attention to the angle. If the edge of the cushion is too low, the ball jumps and if it is too high, the ball is braked.

    What is that number?tadu57u81muou74r2fnco8rvrteeonzs

    Hello, Jacob

    Hello Jacob
    Commercial tables had a serial number. for tax registration. This is attached to the bottom edge of the housing. If it is not a commercial billiard, it has no number. Ambassador and Nassau, which were only used privately, are such models. These were rounded off on the lower edge of the housing. Here is a picture of my Nassau 8 that falls under this category. What is the number of your table? Post a photo of the table and the number.
