Step 4A: Locate the center piece of framed slate and
position it on the cross beam assembly so that it is
centered to both the length and width of the assembly
(you must be very accurate with placement). Pre-drill a
hole through the slate screw hole using a 3/16” drill
bit. Vacuum out debris and secure using slate screws
(H). Continue with same process with both outside
sections of slate.
Step 4B: With a level or straight edge, be sure that the
slate seams are flat and level. If adjustments need to
be made, loosen slate screws and place a shim(s) in
area that needs adjustment. Tighten screws and check
for levleness. Use Bee’s Wax or similar to fuse the
seams of the slate together.
Step 5: Remove any wax, dust and debris from the
slate surface to prep it for the bedcloth. Layout
bedcloth centering it over the slate surface. Starting at
one end, staple cloth to slate framing working from
center out toward the pockets stretch cloth toward
pockets. Go to opposite end of table and repeat
process but pull the cloth tight while stapling. Repeat
on long sides working from center between center
pocket and end pocket stretching cloth toward the
pockets as you staple. Once cloth is completely
stapled, cut pocket openings by cutting small vertical
incisions in cloth to relax the fabric so it can be
stretched and stapled around
opening. Finally, make “X” style slits in cloth where
rail bolts will go through the slate holes (see photo).
