So I finally have got the pool table home after the cyclone we had in Brisbane. I am stoked to see the table looking fresh after I broke it and it seriously plays like brand new! CHeck out the photos below and let me know what you think of the finished product! One other thing I changed is I swapped out the white nets for black nets. I found the black nets made the table much more modern.

Beautiful, the blue is really nice. What did it cost to have the felt done or did you do it yourself?

Much to Omniscient's disappointment, I paid someone to do it. I had to get two legs fixed with new dowells and the whole lot cost me $1600 AUD.

It was worth it I’m sure the final product looks great!

Nothing like a evening with the boys, some cold beers and some pool.
Looks great, loving the blue color as well, so used to green haha!

The pool table looks amazing! The black nets definitely give it a modern touch. Great job on the recovery!

It's a very nice looking table but as you said, I'm disappointed you didn't take it on yourself. It was a doable job imho.

I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

That there is some awesome looking felt! Wish I would have gotten into pool at some point or another. Enjoy your refinished table.

Blue felt looks great, I'm really glad to see this was restored rather than thrown out!
