I had to 'gently' force the table and bumpers back into the frame. That made my reassembly difficult because I wrapped the felt around the table and bumper ends. I simply am not satisfied with this solution, but hope I can get over it.Īs to reassembly, that table had TIGHT original tolerances. Unfortunately, I had to grind the bottom ring off which hold the retention legs to get them to fit all the way down in the hole.

I cracked out my trusty belt sander again and ground them down. Why anyone would have a 1/2" countersunk hole to accept these things, I don't know. Anyways, the problem is that the body of the plug is too long for the hole. Why in the world did they use this design, I don't know. Instead of just having a few legs, the body is long with the legs attached to the bottom part of the body. I finally hunted down an opaqe white replacement, but they are a bit different design.
A few originals were missing, and the rest were yellow with age. I saw mostly because you will notice the white markers are mostly missing along the edge. I had to quit here because I couldn't drill anymore due to noise. Do you know how hard it is to use a spade bit with a 3/8" starter hole? So, I had to make some modifications to the table as seen in this photo. Wrong again! It appears the bumpers I got were made for a 3/4" tabletop. After beveling the liners, I drove them into the table with a hammer and a piece of scrap plywood.Īfter that, I thought it would be a breeze to insert all of the bumpers. I swear I have used the sander on more plastic than wood. After trying to force them for a while, I cracked out my problem solver - the belt sander. The pocket holes were a bit too snug for the rings I had. As usual for me, things don't just magically fit like they do on the woodworking/home improvement shows.

I was just not a fan of the glue method originally used, because once the glue lets up, there is nothing there to hold tension on the felt. I decided to go with the staple underneath method. I got a substantial amount done last night on this (and I finally took pics!)įirst off, I laid out the felt.
