We have a client ( Dan ) who wishes to sell his very well cared for 7×4 traditional style pool table with turned legs finished in mahogany style cabinet
I actually re-covered this table a short time ago and because the seller has other interests the table has not been used much , so the cloth is still in good order.
The reason for sale is he is buying a brand new top of the range version model as used in County pro use .
Dan Heaths cloth condition
He would like £350 for this table , and if local he may deliver it ? as he does have a large van for his other Hobby and work. but you will have to sort this out with the seller.
The table will come with balls and triangle .
Dan heaths 7x4
This table has been well looked after in an heated Log Cabin , the seller plays pool in the local league and would not buy a rubbish table therefore you can be sure you will have a good product even if it is second hand .
these type of tables new are around £1000 new , so at a third of the price of new , you will be getting good value for money .

The table is situated in the CH47 post code area which is in Merseyside , dual height tables rise for playing snooker and when you wish to use as a diner you lower the table top down and then put the two section table top on.
I cannot see the dual height system from the photo’s supplied so it is something you need to ask on inquiry .

Photo’s below of  their really nice aged faded oak table which had a renovation a few years ago by Riley who refurbished the cushion rubber .

The cloth and rubber condition has been described as good , but what is good for one person may not be for another so please be aware you may require a re-cover and a re-rubber , but from the look of the table it looks OK as it is  , so a viewing may be required to try it out before you purchase .
GCL billiards have not inspected the table , this is a Private sale and is sold direct from the owner to the buyer using only GCL billiards web site to offer it for sale in this FOR SALE section for private adverts .

Mr Cooper , Riley Snooker table for sale near Derby Offers please .

Inquiry reference , Mr Cooper Riley full size . 14/2/15

We have a client  ( Mr cooper ) who wishes to sell their full size snooker table

the Table is a Riley turned leg , circa around 1930/50 they made these design of  tables for a long time period right up to the 1960s
IMG_0438
My Client is looking for £350 for the table , Buyer responsible to dismantle and take away  , If you wish GCL billiards will be pleased to quote to dismantle load and deliver plus unload and assemble plus any other work you may require
Just email Geoff at c.large@btinternet.com  or phone 07753466064 .
IMG_1163
as you can see the table comes with a full set of rests balls and cover , plus a Brush and metal lighting shade
IMG_1166
This leg design was very popular for E.J riley the Manufacturer and was produced from 1910 to 1960’s
The table will have a 5 section 2 inch thick WELSH slate bed which is far superior slate than most modern tables made from Italian / Brazilian or Chinese slate  , Welsh slate is the best in the world .
You would be buying a quality slate bed table which is far more better to play snooker on than  a more modern table with soft slate , welsh slate is more denser and slightly more heavier than Italian slate  .
as for Chinese slate this is even more softer , it is well known that the slate quarries in ~Wales and Ireland  have the best slate for Billiard tables in the world .
for comparison you can say the same for curling stones , the best are made from Ailsa Craig green Granite , a product of Scotland , so Welsh slate is best for Billiard tables .
IMG_1162
Our client is looking to have the table sold within the next 4 weeks if possible , being located in a garage makes for a easy dismantle and load to take away so it may be possible for someone who knows how to take one apart to do this part of the job as a DIY task
But please be aware those slates weigh 1/5th of a ton each , and the van used to take away should have a payload weight of at least 1600 kg .

As you can see GCL billiards do have the man power and the tools to take a table apart and load it safely , our van also carries the table and all tools with up to three men all within the legal weight limits .

NEW SNOOKER Private Games room Members only club opening close to Derby / Uttoxeter / Burton -on Trent Area

A New Venture for Jon who is opening a slight twist to the normal Snooker club Scene
This Venture is going to be like a Games Room for Hire by membership.
the room being based in a rather large Barn loft area , and has been recently fully refurbished to a high standard
SONY DSC
I think the format is going to be based on a limited members joining and paying a Membership fee with free table time or maybe smaller membership fee with table charge per hour bookable by going on line
But I am sure Jon who is opening the Snooker Games Room will let me have more information on the format as it is due to open 1st of April 2015 .
The two tables are already in place and I have a few Photos provided by Jon to let you see what the small club is all about .
SONY DSC
I think this is a one off type of club as I have never heard of anyone setting up a Games room use before , it is targeted at all those people who wish they had a Games room at home but due to space could not have or  not being able to afford one or not get planning permission of one .
Details of the club can be got Direct from Jon on 07970 443549 , please leave a message if you do not get an answer straight away .
What I will say is this club offers very warm playing conditions with plenty of heating , so no cold rooms to play snooker in this establishment , plenty of Free Parking , also a professional games driving machine as used by professional F1 Drivers is also being installed but no loud speaker to annoy the snooker players , Head phones only  on this game which is in the far corner well away from the snooker playing part of the room .
There is also a small kitchen area and toilet and hand wash facility area .
SONY DSC
First table being installed , position of the table being in the center of the room , there is plenty of cue room as the room is 16 ft wide at this point .
As you can see there are plenty of heating radiators and the floor is fully carpet tiled , all interior decorated as new and also new lighting , extra table lighting is now being organised and will be ready for the 1st of April 2015.
SONY DSC
Sliding the slates onto the first table , there are 5 slates to each table weighing 1 metric ton
SONY DSC
The bed cloth having been refitted and re-stretched back on , I center a line for the spots to be positioned .
Muntin Brackets jon sully
On one table I noticed that the center slate bearers ( Muntins) where located in a sliding rebate , so after I had a few words with Jon about adjustable slate brackets and the benefits of fitting them , He  had his friend make some adjustable brackets to move the sliding muntin beams up to support the slate and prevent possible slate sagging , I always recommend this if it is possible , these brackets where made on site just around the corner for the club in a workshop within 24 hours , a job very well done by the engineer who made them . without these brackets the center beam was 1/2 inch below the slate and doing nothing and in time the slates may well have started to sag down in the center of the table resulting in balls rolling inwards from both sides of the tables with no way of leveling this out without adjustable Brackets fitted
SONY DSC
Lucky for us , the owner of the Barn has an extending beam fork lift , which we used to get the slates up to the First floor through what will eventually become a fire escape door .
SONY DSC
these fork lifts are very good to get to above ground floors with ease , I have used them on various job’s that I have worked on and below are a couple of other job’s where we where fitting tables and the chance to use one was gladly taken up .

So if you fancy becoming a member who enjoys snooker or billiards in warm quite surroundings rather than the normal noisy club atmosphere then Give Jon a phone on 07970 443549 to enquire and get the full story of this one off limited numbers Members club .
Again I am not sure on the opening times of the club , but I did hear they where planning an all day booking time so maybe it is going to be open 24 hours a day .
I think you will be able go on line and book a time on the web site when it is up and running , this could be as simple as logging in on your smart phone to see what times are available on each table and book it .
The Games room is located close to church Broughton just a few minutes off the main A 50 Nottingham to Stoke road , plenty of parking in the main courtyard of this very large Farm on dry gravel not Mud !
