The playing surface of a slate pool table will give the best and truest playing surface and will not deteriorate over time, whereas an MDF base may warp slightly. Slate pool tables can be sourced at many sports shops or from specialist stores such as Home Leisure Direct.

Should a pool table be slate?
Depending on construction, yes. Although it may be possible, it would not be recommended. The obvious reason to change to slate is a better playing surface. However, the slate will be much heavier than the composite or wood it is replacing.

Is slate board better or worse than regular slate for pool tables?
The first difference is cost, as slate tables cost more. The second difference is weight, as a slate table weighs more than non-slate. The third difference is "playability". A non-slate table and a slate table that has less than one inch slate will not provide the same tolerances and ball reactions as compared to a quality one inch slate table. This third item is the reason all regulation pool tables are required to have one inch slate.

How do you transport a slate top pool table to another town on a trailor with out pulling the felt or slate out?
If you have a large flat trailer, you can use a pool table jack. These are designed to go under the center of the pool table, jack it up, and roll it. If you can't find one to rent locally, look for an auto transmission jack, which, with the use of strong boards, can serve the same purpose for less cost. The pool table can now be moved safely without disassembly. However, you will need a 36 inch doorway and 6 strong friends to assist in moving it through the doorway with damage, if this is in a house.
