If I earn enough money, I will get one, the craftsmanship is just excellent. Yes, this table is expensive but I am sure it worths every penny.

In the beginning i thought it was easy. Just before laying the slabs i thought its difficult but possible. When i saw he placing the cloth and doing the adjustment, i realized, certain things should be done by the pros. Amazing video, thanks for sharing.

It seems easy, but the truth is that assembling this table is anything but easy. You have to be very precise, patient and cautious when you are taking the measurements because one mistake will completely ruin the process.

I knew it was difficult because years ago I saw some guy changing the cloth of a simple pool table and, even without any of these specs, it was still a real craft work.

You can tell these guys have done a few tables in their time. They just came in and set it up like it was nothing. They didn’t miss a thing, no wasted effort, very impressive.

So beautiful craftsmanship! Everybody should remember what great work it is to "make" a snooker-table, when they see a snooker-game. Great respect for and to the men, who prepare the tables! Thank you for uploading this!

I had me Steve Davies snooker set when I was a kid. It was something of a half meter across and 30 some centimeters wide. Cues were toothpicks and the balls were as marbles. I truly felt like I was a "aristocrat" played snooker on our living room table.

This video shows exactly why Riley Tables are the best in the world. Pure Craftsmanship.

Great video. Can't imagine someone who hasn't been trained in doing this would ever want to take this on. Such skill and craftsmanship required.

I am so envious 🤤 I would love a full size snooker table. When I was a child my parents squeezed one into the living room of their flat in Glasgow. It was only there for about 2 months, by then my mother had enough 😢 and it was gone.

Watching this at 4am.. what the fuck is up with my life

Thank you for a most interesting post. I've never before seen the entire process start to finish. Bookmarked.

Interesting video. Nice music.

this snooker table is my dream table. Tight tournament spec pockets (not the large buckets for pockets you find on club tables.). steel backed cushions w/ northern rubber. and strachan 6811 cloth. its set up just like the tables youll se on TV.

A thing of beauty is a joy forever! However, only a knob head would have a snooker table of this Quality and weight asssebled to live , on "TOP" of carpet!!

My table has never let me down thanks

thanks! very good,shows many ,things about how to set up snooker table. nice to see professionals at work! good vídeo work too! music 5*

Good job nice work 👍

Why set up the table right in the corner of the room where cueing would be hampered by two walls? It looks to me like it would be difficult playing off the left cushion or especially the bottom cushion.

with that music, i feel like you guys are installing a snooker table for Charles the third

Great clip, but some minor questions: why don't use a different cloth to dust off the table, and why not use pieces with the same colour as the legs to level the table?

Well, that's a heck of a lot easier and quicker to put together than IKEA furniture.

British irony at its best. Seventeen minutes of precise directions all amounting to one silent message: 'never ever try this install yourself.'

i've never played snooker, barely know pool, havn't held a que in my hands for more than an hour collectively my entire life. but this was interesting to watch...i will say its about the "posh"est thing i've ever seen. XD

Great video, thanks. Curious to know how long the entire process takes, and approximately how much the total installation cost is. Cheers

Growing up i always wondered why billiard and snooker tables were always so expensive... now i know.

What do you use to fill the gaps between the five slabs?

When the players execute a power shot on these tables the ball that goes into the pocket goes perfectly.In my table which isn't a Ryley table,sometimes when we play a power shot,the ball go into the pocket and come back... why is that?

Are the side rails bolted to the slate directly? Do they use plastic plugs inside the slate holes?

Is it wise to put the nails on the cloth? C&n't they make holes as they move when other nailes are hammered in?

I am watching this at 2.27am. fuck my life

good work boys.. but instead of having to craft your own wood under the slate to put the tacks in, why don't you use the glue down method with the scotch weld 10 like diamond? also why don't you use a electric or pneumatic staple gun instead of tacks? just curious

wax will melt when you iron the cloth , soft sand car body filler is used tin modern tables , plaster of used to be used years ago , but good hand floated slates are made as a set and if done correct no filler at all is used . Wax is an american filler , we do not use that here in the UK .

my gosh thats hard work !! i wud never want that job !!! never !!

how long do you think this took them ? 90 minutes?

Is this table good for serving dinner ?

the end looks close to the wall

What is the radius of center and side pocket holes?

Wonder if this at their demo room (see no smoking sign on blue double door in background, unusual in private house!)

04:09 been there, done that :)))

why aren't all parts a exact factory preset block up to mount>? why all these brackets and and leather cuts etc.?

I wonder why they left out filling the slate gaps with filler or bees wax ?
