Default Pool table recover

I guess the worst thing is pulling all those staples.

Best tools to pull staples with is an awl and a pair of diagonal
cutters. Dont use the cutters to cut....grab the staple with the
cutters then roll the cutters instead of pulling.. Use the awl to pry
up the staple enough to get the cutters on it. Did this for 7 years.
Getting the cloth at the right tension comes with experience.

Jimmie,

This guy, Steve B, is asking this question in a Billiard/Pool
newsgroup where there are professionals that recover pool tables, that
have given him all the answers. Why he would ask here is beyond belief
unless he is very lonely old man.
