Step #8:
With a precision level, level each end slate
section by driving wooden slate wedges (provided)
between the top of the baseframe and bottom of the
slate. Keep the wedges as close to the countersunk
holes as possible.
Step #
9:
With both end slates perfectly level, continue
fastening the end slates at the joints. Recheck for
levelness and if necessary, back the screws out and
adjust the shim position, then retighten the slate
attaching screws.
Step #10:
When satised that both end slates are level,
shim the center slate section as required to obtain a
ush t at both joints, then screw the center slate down.

Step #11:
Slate joints can now be lled with fast setting
rock hard putty. Lightly sand or scrape across joint after
grouting.
Step #12:
From the end of a bed cloth, cut strips of cloth
approximately 1-1/2" wide by approximately 8" long and
glue the strips to the pocket cutouts (3m Super 77 is
recommended for this step). This is important as this
will provide cushioning from ball impact and the bed
cloth will last much longer.
