How Olhausen Thinks About Table Craft
A pool table is a system: frame rigidity, slate support, rail response, cloth installation and room conditions meet at the playing surface.
From Material Decision to First Break
Define the play
Separate casual family use from league practice and intensive commercial duty.
Build the support
Choose frame and slate support that can be assembled, leveled and serviced.
Calibrate the finish
Level, seam, stretch cloth and verify cushion response in the installed room.
Evidence Before Adjectives
“Premium” is not a specification. A useful conversation identifies table dimensions, slate arrangement, rail and cushion condition, cloth choice, installation scope and service access.
Model names and finish options can change. Project documents should confirm the actual configuration being quoted.
Playable
Geometry and leveling decisions serve consistent roll and predictable rebound.
Repairable
Wear components should be identified, inspected and replaced without discarding the whole table.
Explainable
Buyers deserve the reason behind each size, material and service recommendation.
