Title: What brand table is this **Pictures**
Post by: Fino on January 18, 2009, 02:45:17 PM

Can anybody help me identify the manufacture of this table? I played a tournament a local bar and the grand prize was the table. It was promotion put on by Foster's beer and as you can see the Fosters logo is all over the table. At first glance the men look very similar to the tornado men, but as you look closer you will start to see differences. I need to purchase some random parts for it and if I had a brand that would help tremendously. I'm very happy with the play and quality of the table, but I fear that it's a Chinese knock off and won't be able to find any parts.

The part that I'm having the most difficult time finding is the locking screw for one of the handles. I've check with several hardware stores and then even checked on Grainger.com and I can not find a compatible screw. The problem is the head of the screw needs to be small enough to be able to recesse into the handle, but all the screws have heads that are too wide.

Any and all help is appreciated.

Evan

Cool table.  Can you post a pic of the other side of the man.  Is that the front or back of the man.  Also, post a pick of the screw you need.

Thanks. Yeah, the picture of the man is from the front. If you look closely you can barely make out a simple smiley face on him. I had one other pic that I didn't post on my first message where you you can get a better look of his foot. I will take another pic of back side when I get home tonight.
