    Don,
    What kind of information do you need on Fischer pool tables. These tables have
    not been built for over twenty years. I have worked on many Fischer tables, maybe I can answer some of your questions. In fact I just recut the angle of the rails at the pocket openings for a friend of mine who owns a Fischer. He played on it for over twenty years and never really liked the way it played, so
    I improved it a little. It was not one of the better playing tables. Aluminum channels to hold the rails in place and no cushion facings. I think the Valley
    was a little higher quality even back then. There are still lots of people playing on them so they can't be all bad.
    Sincerely,

    Hi Jerry!
    I'm not Don, but I am looking for info on a Fischer pool table.
    I am inheriting my Great Grandfather's marble top Empire VII purchased in February 1968 (he kept the receipt). I'm going to have to disassemble it to move it and can't find any information on its assembly. I wondered if you can offer any advice or if you
    might know the answer to some of my questions... There aren't any visible screw heads or obvious removable panels to be able to take off the bumpers so the marble can be lifted out. Do you know how to get the bumpers off? Also wondering if the marble top
    is one piece or three piece?
    Thanks for any advice or info you can offer!
