how to re-felt a pool table?

If you aren't a trained professional, go to a billiards retail store to have the cloth replaced.  It's very important that it gets done correctly.  M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.

Are you talking about the entire board?\n\nIf that's what you mean, I've never heard of anyone doing that. Nor can I imagine in what situation that would be worth the effort.\n\nFew thoughts:\n\n1. If it's a vintage board that you want to restore to pristine condition, you'd still be better off painstakingly fixing each ding. You'd really compromise the shape and risk utterly destroying it by attemping to rip off all the fiberglass. \n\n2. If it's a magic board - a shape so perfect that you don't think anyone could ever reproduce it - then maybe you'd want to consider re-glassing it. However, I still think you'd be better off simply fixing all the dings individually. Plus,  after ripping the fiberglass off and re-glassing it, chances are you'll have altered the board fairly substantially. I guarantee it won't be the exact same board ever again. \n\n3. If it's a board that's simply so thrashed, and so full of holes, that re-glassing seems like the best course of action...well, I still don't think it would be worth the effort. Your time and money would be better spent on a new  stick.   \n\nBottom line: surfboards are semi-disposible products (ironic, considering the toxic, long-lasting materials they're made with). Unless I've missed a potential scenario, re-glassing a board really isn't worth your time or money. \n\nHowever, if you're simply talking about re-glassing a section of the board, then absolutely. That's Ding Repair 101. \n\nThere's a good "how to" site here:\nhttp://surfsource.net/dingrepairguide.html\n\nAh, one more thought. If you have an old board that you want to spiff up and add some durability to, then you might wanto to consider adding a coat of gloss. \n\nThere's a good forum on Surfline about that very thing:\nhttp://forums.surfline.com/showthread.php?s=e2b338cfb16a64f0ed9a0b0b51a3ba1c&t=27741\n\nHope this helps!

If you are using Windows, Paint is the best way AFAIK. Open Paint and then under Image select Stretch/Skew.

Go to tools and fix it up

Go for a wooden one that can be extended. Usually, the back third can be replaced by an extention that you use when using the rest. Avoid gimmick cues like aluminium and carbon fibre. Leave those to the fishermen!

I can't answer your question with absolute certainty, I apologise, but may have something to point you in the right direction...\nThere used to be a show on HGTV called Modern Masters- there was a metal artist on there once, the cut 1/2 inch wide copper strips, wove them into a 'fabric', carefully folded it and placed it into a kiln (1500? 1600? degrees f), he let it soak in the heat for a while (can't remember how long), then took it out and placed it into a water bath.  I think part of the colouring process might have come from the rapid cooling?  The piece had the colours you were looking for, as I recall.  \nI like the sound of what you're doing...hope it all works out for you...

Take the particle board off! That is a really hard thing to smooth out. The best thing to use is 3/4 ince Marine grade plywood. Put it in place, prime it, sand it, prime it again, then put polyurethane on it and it should be pretty smooth. If it's still not smooth, put bowling wax on it. That should give you a good rail.

Ours cost about 400 dollars, but we needed new cushions all the way around and we ordered custom felt, Sonomas 860.  That felt was a more professional grade and was considerably thinner than your average felt so the ball speed was much faster.  To find someone to do ours we just asked the owners/managers of several pool halls in the area.  We had no trouble finding someone to come right to the house and do it for us.  If you do not need new cushions on it you may want to consider doing it yourself.  If you order the felt online it is pretty cheap and the actual job is not hard.  We recovered our other two tabels after the first one was done.  If you think you might be interested in going that route then you should check the book "Minnesota Fats On Pool".  The last part of the book is an instruction manual for redoing your own felt.  That only applied if your have leather pockets.  If you have an old bar table then the felt is usually glued to the slate on those and you will need to hire someone to do it for you.  \n\nFor the new legs, check with the Olhausen store in San Diego.  They do all kinds of work to the pool tables there and make them.  I was able to get a great price on a set of new leather pockets from them that were used but in great condition.  They may come across used legs or slightly marked up legs they will sell you.

If you really want to have it done right send it to the GolfWorks to have it refinished. \n\nhttp://www.golfworks.com/product.asp?pn=IREFINISHING

Let the club heads soak in some soap and water for few minutes, then the dirt will come us with little effort.  You can use a brush if needed.  The rubber grips - soap, water, and soft brush and dry.  Grips will feel like new.

whatever someone is willing to pay for it.. but truly take it to a billiard shop and ask them. expect them to be low by about 20% as they would need to make profit on it also

I think your best bet on such short notice would be to sell it to a local billiards retailer.  Did you buy the table from a dealer?  They will have the necessary equipment and personnel to get the table out of your home.  If you had more time, you might be able to get a better price, but you're cutting it awfully close.  Also, maybe a local bar or pool hall would be interested in purchasing a practically new pool table.  Best of luck.  M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.

Something like that is best found locally.  If it were on eBay then the shipping might be more than the cost of the cheap table.  Check the local newspaper want ads or just ask around.  Yard sales also might have one.
