Can anyone tell me the best way to fit a cloth on a pool table?

Question

I'm making a pool table for school, I have the cloth/baize but I was wondering if anybody would be able to give a brief description on the best way to fit it. Thanks alot.

Answer 1

wet it and streach it.

Answer 2

Glue it to one first then stretch the he--l out of to the other end be sure both ends are glued  then stretch to sides and glue in place careful trimming around the pockets is the only trick trim 1 in slots glue one at a time till your done good luck  the cushions are alittle trickey but it the same way be sure to trim excess cloth so it fits together even no bulges

Answer 3

use some type of glue on the top of the table.and staple it around the sides.don't staple it on the top of the table because the balls might hit them

Answer 4

It has to be stretched with clamps on one side and you on the other and then you can staple it down on the edges before you put the railings on.  There is an episode of "How it's Made" on Discovery that shows this.

Answer 5

Just go to refelting.com and it will show you exactly what to do.

Answer 6

Very carefully. Accuracy and precision is crucial when doing this. You might want to have a professional do it.
