Many years ago, my next door neighbor had a 4 1/2' X 9' table made by a company called Comet Cushions. I learned to play and understand the game on this table. I've played 8-Ball and/or Straight Pool for over 40-years now. To date, I have never seen or played on a table that had thicker slate than my neighbors table, which was about 3" thick! The slate on the table in this video appears to be about 1.25" thick.
Yes it's 1.25"
Estou fazendo a minha, espelhada com a Diamond 9ft PRO AM
Great looking table 😍👍.
Thank you! 🤗
@@vitalikliberi own a 9ft Diamond pro Am one piece slate though i love my table..
@@cryptonator1988 excellent
What was the cost of the table? Did you have it delivered to your home? Have you done this before? and the level of difficulty?.
4" pockets about 9K
Yes installed and delivered in the price
look at that side pocket wrinkle in it
Do you work in Vermont? I just wanted the table felt replaced... no need to do the rails.
Yes they do! Contact Diamond and set it up. When they get their crew in your area they will take care of you too.
I couldn't tell in the video, did they just glue the cloth or glue and staple?
Glue only , very fast job about 15 min for the cloth
Do you have a manual for installing the Pro-am? I recently purchased a table and wondered if you had a manual? Mine is also a 3 piece
No installation was included in the price and the crew didn't need instructions.
What was the filler used between the slate? - bondo? I got to say, it took me a lot longer to staple my cloth down and cover the cushions than it did you guys!😁 And I used playing cards for leveling my three-piece slate.
they used super glue between slates i think and glued down the cloth
@@vitalikliber yikes...
@@Garflips Super fast on the cloth I would say 20 min and done, no staples
@@vitalikliber hey if it works and you're happy then that's all that is important. I stapled my cloth but I made the mistake of using Bondo between the slates taking advice from pros on a forum and being concerned about melting beeswax. But I wish I had listened to the other 50% of pros that said to use beeswax or another product. But the end result is what matters and my 8' table plays great.
Yes they super glued the paper areas then filled the gaps with what looks like Evercoat Body Shop pro filler.
What's the story with that foam rolls being put like that under the slate?
I don't know for sure if I'm addressing exactly what you are seeing here, but I think what you're referring to is actually wood, or a similar substance. It's called a 'slate liner', and it has several purposes: It provides a base where the shims can be placed between it and the slates for precise leveling purposes; it also adds a certain degree to the overall sound deadening, for quieter play, as well as helping in sound deadening of the ball return system; In most cases, it provides a material to which staples can be applied, so the cloth can be stapled down, ( though, in this case, it appears the techs glued the cloth down). It also adds to help strengthen the slates, especially on tables which have the slate liner permanently affixed to each slate, and this adds protection from breakage when they are being moved or transported, (which is the way it had been done on almost all quality tables traditionally, particularly on the larger tables, which were almost always 3-piece systems, and was true especially on almost every antique table). I spent 30 years as a table tech, though I had retired before the Diamond 9' tables were produced. The 3 piece system is easily as good as any 1 piece system, and far more practical for most installations. However, it generally takes a skilled technician in order to dial them in to perfectly level, and it's more time consuming. Another advantage, besides the other obvious ones, is that a 3 piece system allows for the slates to be made thicker, and yet still be manageable in moving them. And it is normal for a slate liner to be attached permanently, which is an obvious benefit in providing strength and it helps in leveling by maintaining a rigidity to the slates; because, though slate generally doesn't warp, it is subject to bending, especially when the installer applies improper leveling procedures.😮 Therefore, It's ALWAYS better to have more mass (i.e.thickness), for the playfield, 😮 in helping to produce a better playing and a more level table. Don't ask me to explain the physics, I just know it helps.
@@dougoverhoff7568In 2:22 you can see them put that white stuff in there.
That's what I'm referring to.
It's kinda weird actually.
@@phanispal5069Ah, yeah! That's weird, alright. Never seen anything like that before, but I bet that it's just what I was talking about, as being there for sound deadening purposes. What else could it be for?
@@dougoverhoff7568 Perhaps you're right, but they just put it there rolled, you would think that if it was for sound deadening etc. they'd put it in a different way.
Anyway, i have never seen anything like that, that's why i thought it was weird, and i have seen other assembly videos in the past.
@@phanispal5069 Well, I've assembled somewhere in the neighborhood of 10,000 tables, and I've never seen anything like it before. So,.........🤔
Next time someone tells me that Diamond tables have one piece slate im gonna show them this video.
Some do. Depends what you order…
They come in 1 or 3 piece. Not any better than a cheap Chinese table. Doesn't even have leg levelers. Also cloth should have been stapled.
@@haroldwilliamson6390 tell me you know nothing about table tech without saying it 😂😂😂🤡
I thought diamond was a one piece slate
One piece slate for the main level installation, three piece slate for lower or upper level
@@vitalikliber I read that After I commented thank you bro
I thought slate on Diamond tables was one piece. I guess not.
They come in one piece slate for big venues or first floor installation, basement or second level three piece slate.
That is too much work for 1 table. My brunswick is much easier to put together and faster( bymyself).
It's a 3 piece slate, usually they bring it on the dolly,flip it and level it when it's one piece slate.
I thought the Diamond Pro-Am table had 1 solid piece of slate instead of 3 separate pieces? I guess I was wrong!
they don't install 1 piece slate in the basement only on the first floor
3 piece slate is always preferable
I believe one piece slate is thinner and they will not take it to the lower or upper level of the house @@user-bm7yl5nz2p
@@user-bm7yl5nz2phell no it’s not 1 piece slate is preferable for a number of reasons . They do make 3 piece slate if you order it that way because you have issues where it’s being put. Fortunately mine came right in the door.
@@vitalikliberyou are correct. Diamond won’t do it. You have to get a 3rd party installer to do that if it’s what you need with the 1 piece slate tables. 3 piece they will. You have to remember a 1 piece is delivered already together. All they have to do is bolt the legs on and level it
