i love that phrase, gentle adjustment with a mallet
Christopher Wong this works on kids too. 😂😂👼🏻
British engineering has had this ethos for centuries!
if I was rich a snooker table would be the first thing I'll get
@Robin Wilson yikes
@Robin Wilson Let's hope your wife doesn't see this comment! 😂😂😂
If I were rich I definitely wouldn’t have those carpet tiles! 😛
Yeah.you need a big space in another words big house.small house and the table might can still be in the house but no more space for player to go around the table and cueing.
@@maxsonanthonywilliam-1284 thats why if I was rich
I like to imagine there was an entire classical orchestra in the room playing music as they built the table.
I wish I had a snooker table
I wish I had room for a snooker table
.... I wish I was any good at snooker
me too.. tho

good idea i'll start by winning the lottery
I wish I was a little bit taller.
I wish I can fly
I wish I was a baller.
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.
Nah, nothing pro about it.
You're just really bad at math.
if something seems easy it is difficult if something looks difficult don't even bother trying.
Alfred Thomas same. I thought me & my mate can do this up until the cloth.
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.
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.
Why the heck am I watching this Friday night at 1AM drinking beer. Wtf is wrong with me.
Either Poor or Fantastic life choices depending on perspective, haha.
I'm sitting here at 0133 drinking cuban rum watching the craftsmen build a splendid aristocrat table of snooker. At day I usually spend my time restoring french clocks. thats simply life, nothing wrong with that:)
Because you have great taste, why else?

It's friday, it's 1:25 AM and I was thinking the same thing. Except beer... I'm going to grab a beer now. Thanks!
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!
You can clearly see the craft in this man's hands. He must had done that million times already. Great job!
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.
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.
Wooooww i didnt know how complicated was to build a snooker table! WONDERFUL!!
That hand stitching was intense.
Thank you for a most interesting post. I've never before seen the entire process start to finish. Bookmarked.
I bet this film was made for the customers that thought "I bet I can save money on assembling this myself". No, no you can't.
:)
Hahahaha, so true!
I am having my garden snooker place built in 2-3 weeks and my Aristocrat installed in 5 weeks, can't wait for that!
That is a work of art and the men building it are artists.
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.
This video shows exactly why Riley Tables are the best in the world. Pure Craftsmanship.
there shit
+SteveoMagician They're*
Rat Trap Burroughes and watts steel block r the best tables out there
I want to try using tacks for the bed cloth but first i need to get one of those magnetic hammers. Don't lick your fingers. Have a wet sponge for that. Nice video.
Am I the only one thinking the table is far too close to the wall? :(
no, you are not.
Kramers maestro stick will soon sort that out.
To make room for the filming equipment

This is real art..! Just beautifull to watch..!
The guy fitting the cloth has done it before no doubt beautiful table.
No shit.

Great professional work guys. Hats off.
Wonderful Craftsmanship.
best porn I've seen in a while
Interesting video. Nice music.
My table has never let me down thanks
What a good job. Thanks for sharing
nothing better than watching the assembly with some BACH on 😂
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!!
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.
Beautiful table!
looks like the fitter is having a cheeky 'hand shandy' at 2:23
pocket billiards perhaps?

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

with that music, i feel like you guys are installing a snooker table for Charles the third
Dire positional shot on the black after that red.
kenny jonczyk and that break was terrible, didn't even pass the blue
Realmente incrível um belo trabalho de arte em equipe é claro
Fantástico, incrível, sensacional, meus parabéns à todos os profissionais da equipe, abraços fiquem com Deus.
This is dream coming true!
what a beauty...
This is a first class job and these boys have earned their bonus...Cost at least $25,000.00 CA installed I bet...
superbe travail
Omg!
Cant believe he put the 'jack' straight onto the carpet!
sami sami nor me we always use old carpet n a block b4 jacking
I would give my right bollock for a snooker table in my house.
you need balls when you play this game so dont give your right bollock up
Person working at Riley: "Yet another bollock sent to us, guys throw another 12 footer in the van!"
Lol
@@neilfarrington5212 😂
that job wud drive one mad !!
why am i watching something i cant afford and dont have enough space for!? haha, i guess i'll just carry on going to the snooker hall for me!
You can pick up a secondhand one for a few hundred quid. Just that most people don't have the space.
@@nuntana2 And what would be the price of the brand new unused snooker table? Like that in the video?
@@eternalbattle1438 Thousands.
Eternal Battle14 6 to 14 k .Get an antique for peanuts and recover .
brilliant - absolutely craftsmen. wonder how many tables they have installed to get that fast and skilful?
11 seconds in and could't help but notice the attention to detail with the stitching crossed over on the pocket. " Pain staking attention to detail "
Ok using tacks when there are staple guns is just showing off! Good show!
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.
At riley we sell top quality snooker tables, presented by a 480p video.
art.!! i wonder how many hours they needed to assemble the table..
It is a thing of beauty though. I just wish my eyesight was as good as it was when I played. I was never great. 54 was my best break, but I do miss playing.
Great video, thanks. Curious to know how long the entire process takes, and approximately how much the total installation cost is. Cheers
Very good video but why was the grouting between the slates omitted ?
impressive
reteipdevries
my gosh thats hard work !! i wud never want that job !!! never !!
Well, that's a heck of a lot easier and quicker to put together than IKEA furniture.
lmao
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?
Growing up i always wondered why billiard and snooker tables were always so expensive... now i know.
OK Mike, put it on the slate.
your Ginsters from the fridge?
There's one thing that doesn't ever change, and that's tiny wheels on British vans :)
Just a funny observation I've made over 30 years :D
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
as anybody got the Riley lads a drink?
Ds
Wonder if this at their demo room (see no smoking sign on blue double door in background, unusual in private house!)
Are the side rails bolted to the slate directly? Do they use plastic plugs inside the slate holes?
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
British irony at its best. Seventeen minutes of precise directions all amounting to one silent message: 'never ever try this install yourself.'
What do you use to fill the gaps between the five slabs?
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?
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?
Hi i've just bought a 2nd hand 3/4 snooker table i'm a keen snooker player and realy love the game ' would please asist me in assembling ,covering and spec;s of the table as well as the measurements of the D and all other marks marks on the table can' wait for ure reply .Thanks Tollie
why aren't all parts a exact factory preset block up to mount>? why all these brackets and and leather cuts etc.?
Seems like they would do about one or maybe two of these a year.
the end looks close to the wall
wow
top
Setting the frame up without using a single bolt to hold it is an absolute no no! I was just waiting for it to fall to pieces
I wonder why they left out filling the slate gaps with filler or bees wax ?
I am watching this at 2.27am. fuck my life
Is this table good for serving dinner ?
how long do you think this took them ? 90 minutes?
All that care and attention when putting on the felt, and then the tools are just left on top.
Which animal leather is used for pocket ??
Allo . queria saber se o bilhar de SNOOKER grande e aquecido .obrigado
What is the radius of center and side pocket holes?
I'd be kicking myself if I spent hours putting this together and the nap was running the wrong way
So long as you realised before putting the markings on
Missed out a bit regarding putting melted beeswax in the slate joints.....or have they stopped doing that?
i was wondering about the seams too....... your beeswax reference cleared it up though
Indeed, where is the beeswax???
dimplez dimples the older tables they us plaster of paris this is 2 get a better fixing n a smother finish.
beeswax is by far the best product for ensuring flush slates, much better than plaster of paris, which may be prone to cracking.
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 .
Voice over by Sir Harish Bhimani?
Ten grand for that table! I would love space and money for one of them! Oh well, I can dream!
