Professional pool tables weighing up to 2,000
lbs. and costing up to $2,000 use slate for the
table beds. This inorganic material is not
affected by atmospheric conditions such as
heat and moisture.
Home pool tables can not use slate because of
weight and cost considerations.
LEVELNESS
Every table has customer instructions for
setting up and leveling these tables and the
customer is expected to perform this operation.
THE BED
The "Bed'" or playing surface of Hawthorne
Pool Tables, Models 5031, 5032, are made of
a special high-density particle board designed
to be warp resistant. Models 5066, 5068, have
an extra thick, high-density particle board that
is highly warp resistant due to its slate-
impregnated finish that seals out moisture,.
called
"SLATE-TEX". Models 5069, 5098,
5099, are built with beds of what we believe to
be the absolute finest man-made material for
this
purpose
known
as
"SLA-CO".
This
material is totally warp proof and chip proof.
LOOSE CLOTH
Occasionally, the cloth may stretch and wrinkle
due to absorbing moisture. This can be re-
medied by running a hot iron over the cloth to
restore its original tautness.
LOOSE POCKET LINERS
This should be considered an ordinary and
expected problem throughout the life of the
poòl table and can be easily reattached with
staples or small round head nails.
SELECTING PERMANENT LOCATION FOR
POOL TABLES

keep these important items in mind:
