Steel Block Dimensions

[hsn]

Hello Every one. I've stripped down my snooker table in an attempt to put new bed and steel-block cushions.

I am going to build the steel blocks from steel plates myself. I don't have exact dimensions of them so can any one please help me in this regard.

At the moment what I am missing is the width and depth of the groove for fixing the cloth in it. Also the the distance from the edge of the steel-block.

Additionally the width and thickness of the wooden blocks is also needed that are installed at the end of each side of the steel plate.

What I know at the moment is as follows for the sake of information;

Steel block
Thickness = 12mm
Width = 4 inches
Length= Depends upon the exact installed measurements of the slate and the pocket template.

For readers curiosity I am also building the bed myself. It is of marble instead of slate because it is easily available to me.
I can share what I know in return with pictures.

Thank you very much for your help and support.

At least 45mm thick. My previous marble bed was 46mm, it was in 29 x 75 inch five pieces. This time I am planning to buy 3pcs of
27 x 75 inch and 2pcs 32 x 75 inch in order for the bolt holes to adjust at least 3 inches away from the 2nd slab corner.

Thanks for your interest anyway.

It would be an awful favor indeed! I am visiting my family these days out of the UK.

Thank you for your offer but I am out of country and I can buy 5 sets of marble snooker beds here for the collective price of the slate and the shipment. Also, marble is stronger than the slate and won't sag too!
