Thanks for this video I just bought a table and have to transport it from Marrero to Kenner I was thinking of letting a professional move it but it would double the cost of the table (maybe more than double it) After watching this video I think I can do it I’m going to watch the other videos as well I think you just saved me a bunch of money I might give you a call anyway to get a quote in case I end up over my head so I’ll know how much my incompetence will cost me 😅 Thanks again!

instead of setting the slate directly on the truck bed, I put them on two auto/truck tires to take up shock
Comment from : @stevemerritt2721

After watching this, I’m pretty sure I can get this job done to help my friend move & avoid another costly moving fee Thanks for the help & pro tips Hopefully this is somethIng I can do on my own

Why does the cloth need to come off?
Comment from : @chuckplainview4085

How much does each slate weigh,I was going to do it by myself
Comment from : @gregory4247

How much did that frame weigh? And im guessing the slate pieces are about 300lbs a piece

Comment from : @GilSolanoREEGT

Do you have a video to put it back together
Comment from : @Tony-v7z7j

Thank you for the info! I do have a question however, the table that I am looking at purchasing is a 1920s Brunswick I was told that it was a single sheet of slate I guess my question is is that something common for that time Or are all tables set up with multiple pieces of slate? Thanks again
Comment from : @timbarker7585

Moving pool tables fucking sucks I am actually a professional mover with several years of experience I've moved everything, I even specialized in pianos for a bit and worked at a Piano moving companybrbrPool tables are my least favorite common household item to move I'd rather do a gun safe, two baby grands, a bunk bed, or a hot tub Pool tables are hard to balance, rails are fragile, and they can weigh over 1,000 pounds I have one today, it's an 8 footer We aren't disassembling anything, just using a fixed dolly and a lift gate Not looking forward to it

very detailed, thank you
Comment from : @gregpushman5793

I am picking up a gold crown III in two days and never moved a table before Any tips on pinned slate removal? do I just wiggle it but not up and down? maybe a rubber mallet? should I strap down the slate for bumps in the truck bed with rachet straps?
Comment from : @fu1168

Thanks for your videos helped me out a ton
Comment from : @TomRivera-wf8fo

4 guys in our 30s, removed the legs from a newer slate 8 foot table, carried the table up finished basement stairs, into a moving truck and into the basement of a house 30 miles away We reattached the legs, and it was as good as new I realize this video says "the RIGHT way",; and perhaps we were lucky I was giving my pool table to a friend, as I was moving out of state, so all of the work shown in the video was not worth it to either one of us
Comment from : @kwebster62

This was a Great video this video relaxed my thoughts on moving forward with the new table I just purchased and relieved me on trying to move the table with out any issues Can’t thank you enough for sharing your Experience and Knowledge
Comment from : @ernestbutler4647

Incredibly helpful video Gave me the courage to pick up a pool table at a steal of a price Thanks!!!
Comment from : @prestonwatkins9011

You dont recommend renting a uhaul and just throwing the whole thing in there?
Comment from : @eddiehernandez7119

Thank you
Comment from : @kennethsmith5494

Would you advise against putting those slates on top of some foam board and in between to transport?
Comment from : @Mrdubomb

Thank you-I’m going to send your video to our son 😊
Comment from : @juliatrotter9659

Love you could have been 10 minutes long instead of 17 minutes long
Comment from : @jefflevenhagen

What if the screw holes on the wood frame have widen and no longer tighten the slate on to the frame?
Comment from : @hectortoledo3384

Thanks!
Comment from : @billroberts9702

Thank you for taking the time to make this video
Comment from : @Tracer414

This video was awesome! Hardest part was removing the staples Everything fit in my small truck 8 ft table
Comment from : @bernarat

How would you handle a single slate pool table? Just use more people to move the single piece of slate?
Comment from : @ithomson3018

I have to move a 9FT Gandy with a ball return tomorrow I bought for $300 I could not find anybody in the area to move it so I have to with the help of two friends what size table is in this video?
Comment from : @jimlord8216

Need to specify what tools are needed Types of fasteners, etc
Comment from : @JohnSewart

Comment from : @davidlfugate4681

Comment from : @juanurena8249

Thank youyour videos are informative, intelligent and easy to watchthanks for helping me with looking for a used pool table, and safely moving itI'll get my local guy to set it up, but thanks for doing what you do
Comment from : @VinceZogas

@CreativeRestorations brWhy wouldn't you layer moving blankets underneath and between the slate pieces?
Comment from : @JWS-xn8ye

Thank you for the video tutorials This gives me confidence we can buy a used pool table that was debating on buying due how heavy it is Now i see how we can break it down and move it
Comment from : @ramone8554

Can you just leave the pockets attached to the frame? I’m going to be moving a 7 foot imperial international 3 piece slate table soon myself I didn’t see why the pockets came off Great video
Comment from : @danielmartin1328

Do I have to take the felt off on a one piece slate table? Also can I transport the one piece slate flat on the bed of the truck? Thanks
Comment from : @ecantu8841

If i wouldve watched this 10 years ago, I could've had TWO brand new brunswick pool tables I'm so mad and grateful now that I won't miss the next one Great video Thankyou Can u explain saving the felt or even installing new felt? I'm gonna go stalk your channel now 😁😆
Comment from : @tomeuler1979

if I have a trailer large enough, is it possible to just take the legs off the table and move all 3 slabs of slate while keeping them intact?
Comment from : @mrsteezyoctopus3767

why do you have to take the pockets off the rails?
Comment from : @kcooper9796

Super helpfulThis will giving our slate table to a friend super easy I might have taken every piece apart!
Comment from : @robertedwards9323

Great concise video Thank you Well within my capabilities, to my surprise!

Comment from : @lordlouiseadrielle

Thank you professor YouTube University never fails! well sometimes it does but nit this time! I was going to get the Uhaul and 8 friends 😅 but with your instruction all I need is my wife 😆 thanks!
Comment from : @tksts37

Hi my table is a golden west I got down to the slate and there are two screws in the center area and they are full of bondo so i cant get to the screw heads How do you loosen bondo and get it out of the hole? a torch?
Comment from : @BirdNerdJC

Thank you Nice job explaining and keeping it simple brDo you have a video for a table with ball return tracks?

Comment from : @angusgray3975

thank you for the information, great detail!!
Comment from : @tommarshall5751

and hopefully no rain on the long ride home I probably would wrap the frame in plastic, just in case

How do you move a single slate top table safely?
Comment from : @anthonysmit342

Thanks Doug, your videos are great brI spoke to you some time ago and sent you some pictures of my Brunswick 75 anniversary table We need to move it roughly 450 miles from PA to NC Some of the roads are very rough and there isn't any other way out and into the areas The side rails of the table are 9' long and don't break down any smaller than that best I can tell We have the table disassembled now and I plan on moving it after Christmas I am planning on renting a 6x12 boxed U-Haul I noticed you said to build a create and put in the trailer vertically I can and will build a 3-section cage to hold the slate as tight as possible and strap to the walls of the U-Haul I really don't have any other way to move because I know my truck isn't big enough and I don't want to move in an open trail per some of the comments I read before I have several questions for you if I may: br1) would I want to wrap each slate in a moving blanket? br2) what would I want to have the bottom of the slate sitting on? 2x6 or ???br3) the table is going to be stored for maybe 1 or several years until I refinish all the rails and aluminum pockets and skirts They are in rough shapebr4) How do I store the slate until I'm ready to put back together Does it have to be in a climate-controlled environment or in NC and I ok if it isn't brThank you for your timebrDale

Thank you from Minnetonka, Minnesota The video was a great help

Really great video thank you

This is stupid
Comment from : @jessecampos4172

Nice
Comment from : @ramanchhina1787

Thanks for the video I’m still new to the moving industry I’ve been learning from many YouTubers
Comment from : @dpsdeliveryandpickupservic1146

I'm going to be moving a Dynamo coin operated pool table can it be broken down like that, or just the slate, base, and legs?
Comment from : @DustinJohnson-c4u

This was perfect! The homeowner assumed we needed 3-5 people to remove the pool table but two of us did it by just following your video The hard part was getting the slate up a stairway with a 90° bend but that just took a little more time
Comment from : @JTTeske

Very good information I feel like I can move a table now
Comment from : @jamesroberts9849

Does it have to be disassembled? Or can it be moved in one piece if you will have a uhaul moving truck??
Comment from : @makeupbymelic

Do you know any technicians in Oahu, Hawaii? I have a Brunswick Prestige that needs to be moved
Comment from : @beauchatching9137

Thanks brbrGot mine torn apart for the movers, they will move it but wouldn’t do assembly or disassembly
Comment from : @trp2413

Brilliant how-to video You got all the solid points, made the work seem doable, and saved me some cash!
Comment from : @rachellepowell6404

Thanks for the video! Question, since the rails come off as two units is there a reason why you'd continue breaking them apart? Seems like keeping them together would save assembly?
Comment from : @csiaudio

What is the weight each of the three slates slabs? What is the weight of the 8' frame mines the lages?
Comment from : @johnmpeterson1095

Why not move it fully assembled? The door looks big enough
Comment from : @brianlittle717

I moved mine the hard way me and three other guys it was hell I have to move it again and will definitely do it this way
Comment from : @martinmendoza2447

Wow! And I was about to hire someone to do this?? Thank you for this video!
Comment from : @JohnChaseClayton

Can only the legs be removed to move the table more easily or does it have to be completely disassembled in order to remove the legs?
Comment from : @Universo07

Great video! So hopeful! One question I'm taking apart a fairly new Brunswick Contender table this weekend, and I'm not sure if the slates are pinned If so, will the pry method still work for the slate separation, even with bondo or plaster of paris? I'm not sure how the table was assembled yet
Comment from : @ChrisMonty44

Thank you
Comment from : @tonywoodford9119

Gonna give er a try, thanks!
Comment from : @scottrehak4076

Hi, thanks for posting your videos I don't know if you'll see my comment but a few questions I'm finding hard to get the answers to are; can I move my table a few inches this way or that way without dismantling? , And I see you have a rug under that table, our table is on tiled floor and it doesn't have a smooth sound as the ball rolls, could we slide a rug under to improve that, again without dismantling?
Comment from : @candiceblack86

Why couldn’t you just put the pool table on a trailer and drive it to your new house?
Comment from : @NaySeld

Thank you so much, a company wanted 1,000 dollars to move a table
Comment from : @ofcrdavidprestonopd6170

What is the best way to carry up stairs a one piece slate from a 7' Diamond table? I think it weighs 600-800 lbs? Thanks!
Comment from : @brianjanovec5162

Any advice with moving a 1920's era 5X10 snooker table? Seems it should be pretty much the same but heavier slates but I don't think we can keep the frame in one piece
Comment from : @therealthreadkilla

I appreciate the service you provide to those of us who can't afford an assembled pool table people like my self
Comment from : @Ken-uc5nq

I knew it wasn't rocket surgery but it's nice to see a good walk thru before attempting something like this Cheers

Who do you recommend I use to move a table in Orlando Florida ?
Comment from : @roc2253

Definitely going to move one myself now Thanks for the info!
Comment from : @RamMan2016

After watching your video, reading every comment and your personal advice that you answered from experience, I can say with complete confidence and applaud that you are a "teacher" One who revels in the success of others with your knowledge forwarded in hand A rare personal trait of which to be extremely proud Respect may come grudgingly and late to the party from those whose life is left only to denigrate but respect will come A fine man and person
Comment from : @danc3831

Used your videos to successfully recover 3 times twice my Dad's bar top and once my table Billiards Tech's are not available in the rural Midwest Just so very grateful for your Billiards videos
Comment from : @barthunt1590

I own a Dynamo coin-op table that I need to move Do you have a video that shows how to disassemble this type of table with the single piece of slate?
