    By the serial number mine is one of the last 9A's made and dates to 1924 that is if I am reading Jay Allen's book right.

    Nice score at Alcocks (the best billiards table people in the world) got some fair dinkum ridgey dige wool baize for my 1A stand. Pretty happy with that I can tell you!

    Other than that lots of progress, the camera is re assembled, just have a little bit to do on the sliding base where I inlayed the brass to cover up the wood butchered holes.

    Fair Dinkum, indeed!


    What on earth is Phillippine Mahogany? I would thought that tongued and grooved would be more reliable than glue!
