This is what makes you tube great. Some guys with a skill just sharing it because they want to. I gave my pool table to a charity and this made the whole thing easy.
Thank you so much for posting this! You’re directions were spot on and my wife and I disassembled our pool table very easily. Plus, you saved us $275!! Thanks again brother.
Looking to pick up a pool table today and had no idea where to start. After watching this video, I'm ready to go into the pool table dis-assemble shipping business.

Thank you for this video!! I needed someone to move a table I bought and the people were asking anywhere from 495 to 1k - after this video, I was able to disassemble and load the truck, with the help of 1 person, all in 2h.
Thanks. This is very helpful. I need to move a pool table, but I don't think I'll be able to get it into it's new home without dismantling it. Going to be hard work!
Thank you! Was wondering how I was going to get rid of the pool table in the janky addition my new house has. Addition is almost gone, so too will the pool table. Thanks again!
🎉thanks you saved me $2000. and a huge headache the guy would book an appointment and then never show up? I’d rather not have strangers in my house.🎉🎉🎉
I have an olhausen table and the slate pieces are connected in the center. Any idea how to take it apart? Wedging screwdriver between the where pieces meet on the side hasn’t done the trick.
thank you so much! very helpful would u need a palm sander to remove bondo from the slate? idk what or why bondo is there but im buying a used one and that is whaat the guy said to bring
Is it necessary to dismantle the 3 slate pieces in order to unscrew the legs from the base? Just wondering if it would be possible to lift the top with the slates in-tact off of the legs, to be able to move it as one piece. And not have to deal with the individual slate pieces, as well as re-covering it! Thanks.
Thanks, but your number is way off. The most authoritative I found was here, which puts an 8' table at 143 lbs per piece. groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rec.sport.billiard/ep-CEqglER8
The real reason for not moving a 3 pc slate table w/o disassembling it is the creation of "slate ridge". Professional movers like myself run into this quite often. When you move these tables you will be binding slates together with tremendous stress at the seams. Just like plates make mountains, you are making a ridge along the seams that will affect the ball rolling across it. only way to fix it is remove the felt and plain the slate ridge off. Again disassemble it to move it, dont damage your table and break your back. Thanks Stu's Pool Table Movers & Services
Very well done video......thank you for the clear and concise instructions ......question: my slate screws are covered with a bondo type of filler therefore you can not see the screws....it appears to be a similar material as was used between each of the 3 slate pieces .....in your video the screws were not covered and thus easily accessible for removal.....anyway, the filler has become hard and I can not scratch out the filler with a putty knife .....I tried to put water on it to soften it but that didn't help very much.....should I use a torch to heat up and possibly melt off the filer so I can get to the screws?....your thoughts as to how I can get to my slate screws....thank you
Thanks for the information! Now that I realize how much f#*kin work is involved, I'm just gonna leave this old one here and buy a new one for our new house.
Never sand the slate! Irreparable damage. A wide putty knife is what we use to scrape it off. Furthermore, we use Durhams Rock Hard Water Putty rathere than bondo, plaster, or wax. Benn servicing tables for a few years, just throwing in my 2 cents!
On God thank you they want $1735 to move it and rebumper and rag it/. I opted for self removal and call it a day 😌 save 💸 gain living space/ I paid 300 bucks 15years ago/ can’t see paying more to restore than 3 times original cost//// to replace $1600.xx ????
Everyone criticizing the camera work instead of just saying THANK YOU! Unreal.... Thanks Sir... The video made my day much easier. Much appreciated!
I mean it's not super "professional" but at bo point am I confused about he is doing. Though, always charge the camera lol

excellent video on why you want to hire a professional to disassemble/reassemble your pool table.
Nice job with the editing and voiceover. Thanks for uploading.
This video is awesome! would a ball return system make a difference in the difficulty of disassembling a pool table?
Be careful headphone users 6:24 volume gets higher..
Very very informative video thank you
thank you so much! very helpful would u need a palm sander to remove bondo from the slate? idk what or why bondo is there but im buying a used one and that is whaat the guy said to bring
Hfrusnz
Thank you very much for this video. I would have made a disaster out of it had I tried to do it by intuition
Good Video, great tips. thank you.
Great vid thanks man big help
Thank you for guidance
HI, Great video. Can anyone know how much time is needed to disassemble
a table like this? Thank you
how log is the slate? will it fit in a pick up truck?
How heavy is each piece of slate? And how fragile is it? Just curious.
Great video! Thank you so much for posting this!
do you dissemble the frame as well or does that stay together?

Jack Jensen the slates are 450 pounds each. Good luck carrying

Jack Jensen i know, im just trying to rationalize not being able to carry one. :)

Did you ever figure out how to get through that filler to remove those screws?
Very helpful; you've convinced me not to do it myself.
What is the approx time for a couple of mechanically inclined novices to do this work??? Wild guess: guess 2-3 hours? (Great video... thank you!)
Thanks for the video awesome
Thanks great video.
Thanks for the information! Now that I realize how much f#*kin work is involved, I'm just gonna leave this old one here and buy a new one for our new house.
can you repair a cracked slate
Great vid thank you!!!
Thank you. Now I know to hire a mover!
If your table is ball return then you sould remove it after you pull out the pocket liners. This does not apply to coin operated tables.
Damn, problem ibhave is the slate is one big solid peice, no slate screwes or anything, and the felt is glued to the edges of the slate...
Thank you, sir.
Thank you!
Nice job but skip out your cameraman man... Grrrrr
ths was the best one
@ 11:20 marking slate
