Construction & Materials

 

 

 

Cutting Timber

Each billiard table in The Yellowstone Collection is constructed of a thick hardwood frame, braced and Applying a Stainfurther reinforced by extruded aluminum fasteners.

 

Using a DrawknifeThe frames are leveled top and bottom to ensure that the diamond-honed three-piece 1" slate lies flat and true to satisfy even the most discriminating player.

 

The logs and timbers are standing dead or down and are further seasoned at our facility.

 

The Yellowstone Collection offers a tasteful selection of textures and stains (see below). We use only environmentally safe finishes to achieve a deep satin luster.

 

Hand-crafting the Wood

 

The top rails of each billiard table feature an exclusive Drawknife insert, assuring that the pocket-to-rail connection will last a lifetime.

 

We use Olhausen Accufast© cushions available for consistent and accurate rebound. Each rail is bolted through the slate for maximum rigidity. The target sights are round mother-of-pearl or our own French-diamond sights of exotic cocabolo hardwood inlaid by hand. Pockets are available in many attractive designs and colors.

 

 

 

Drawknife billiard tables & accessory pieces are available in three different embellishments:

These designations refer to the amount of natural character in the logs that are used. When building tables, more highly specialized woodworking skills are required when there is more character in the materials. Standard tables are available in a clean-peeled, skip-peeled, gray weathered or beetle tracked texture. Wilderness and Burl logs are limited in availability therefore specific textures may be difficult to obtain.


Standard - contains primarily straight logs with minimal knots, bends or unusual character.

 

Wilderness - contains logs that feature what is sometimes called "cat face." The flowing patterns in the surface of the lodgepole pine trees can be caused by animal interaction (porcupine chew), a disease (paradarym harksieniam) or a past event that has left a scar on the bark of the tree. Each piece is truly one-of-a-kind.

 

Burl utilizes the highly rare and bulbous burl wood in its construction. Over the years, the master Drawknife craftsmen have developed the skills necessary to build a burl table. Our team of designers and craftsmen will work closely with customers to create these works of art. A true collector's item.
