Summary |
Technical Information: From the 1988 Brunswick Billiards Buckingham sell sheet: Brunswick’s Buckingham is an intelligent choice for excellent playability and maximum durability. The rails are solid wood with a burn, stain, and scratch-resistant over-laminate. This table also features burn, stain and scratch-resistant aprons and legs. Canvas-backed SUPER SPEED® cushions to assure true ball rebound and professional accuracy. Six cross support beams, two full-length side beams and a center beam assure lasting strength. All wood used in the construction of the Buckingham is kiln-dried to resist warping. Pearlized inlaid sights and two professional-style rail-mounted score counters are standard. The Buckingham is available in seven and eight foot models with automatic returns or in traditional pocket style. Rails: Burn, stain, and scratch-resistant rails are supported by and bolted through the slate for maximum rail rigidity. Score Counters: Two sets of professional-style score counters are flush mounted in the rail. Legs: Heavy-duty laminated legs have solid wood feet for maximum stability. Construction: Laminated wood construction used for maximum strength. All wood is kiln-dried to resist warping. Base frame: Base frame is composed of six cross support beams, two full-length side beams, and a center beam for lasting strength. Aprons: Burn, stain, and scratch-resistant aprons for maximum durability. Cushions: SUPER SPEED® canvas-backed cushions, the standard of the industry, assure maximum accuracy, true ball rebound and consistency. Sights: Pearlized inlaid sights have a maximum tolerance of 30/1000 of an inch for accurate play. Cloth: Cloth is optional; however, Brunswick recommends a professional blend of wool/nylon billiard cloth to assure excellent playability. Pockets: All pocket openings are made to exacting industry standards. Slate: Three-piece, precision ground slate provides a permanent level playing surface. Slate is precision-machined level to within 10/1000 of an inch and extends underneath the rails for consistent play. Machine nuts and bolts are used for maximum stability. |
