Pool Table Assembly: Detailed and Illustrated Instructions for Most Pool Tables

by Mose Duane

“Pool Table Assembly” is a complete, detailed, and illustrated instruction manual for assembling almost any pool table. Mose Duane, author of A Rookie’s Guide to, “Pool Table Maintenance and Repair,” “Buying or Selling a Pool Table,” and “Playing Winning Pool” wrote the manual. The need for it came about with the realization that far too many people are talked out of assembling their own pool table because “professionals” can do a better job. Nothing could be further from the truth. Assembling a pool table is not hard, and with a little insight and this manual, any rookie should be able to do a proficient job in an afternoon.

A Practical Well-written Guide for Maintenance and Repair of Pool Tables and Cues

I obtained this book to get a recommendation on the best level to use ( Four foot Carpenter's Level) and was drawn in by the great, practical writing and ended up reading the whole book. I have been playing pool for fifty years and have a rather keen interest in the game. I was getting ready to level my own table and after reading about that topic, since that is part of the restoration/maintenance process, I read about that as well.The next thing I know,I am writing this review. If you're a handy person with a couple of tools and attention to detail, you could save some money by following this book. On the other hand, you might realise that the people who do this well are worth what they charge.

Great book for the DYI pool table enthusiast!

I was able to resurrect and perfect the table I’ve had stored in my sisters back yard for nearly 10 years!! It now looks and plays GREST
