How do I find a table mechanic in the Washington, D.C. metro region that will take a look, recover and what ever he thinks would improve the playability of nice Gandy Big "G" 9 footer?

In the past I have looked up pool halls and retailers on line and called them to get mechanics names.

The offer is tempting, believe me. I'm a sucker for good food! Nov. 1 is usually the opening of my busiest season and I won't take any time off until Feb. I will ask a few people that may know some one. If I come up with any results, I'll gladly let you know.

Here is a list of five rooms in DC. I went to two of their web sites and They seemed to be high end rooms with GCs. I would suggest giving them a call. I understand you were hoping to find some one on here. This is just about the best I can do.

Call Bill + Billie's in Arnold (410) 544-8185. I forget the name of the guy who does their tables but he definitely does a good job.
