These tops are
made from
multiple layers
of
Precision
engineered
felt,
not particle
board or
plywood.
This interior
felt is milled
to stringent
quality specs
for thickness
and moisture
content.
More
layers
means a
stronger
lamination,
a
straighter
surface
and
resistance
to
warping!
Never a
void,
never a
knot,
always
perfectly
straight!
Dozens
upon
Dozens of
layers of
felt are
laid down
and glued
together
under
pressure
to make
an
extremely
rigid
top that
will
resist
warping
for years
to
come.
P
olyvinyl
"white"
glues are
used
rather
than
animal
glues or
staples
to hold
the Tops
together.
Polyvinyl
glues
stay
flexible
rather
than
turning
brittle
as other
glues do,
without
the
offensive
odor of
common
animal
glues.
This give
the tops
uniform
thickness
and
eliminates
many of
the odors
other
tops
acquire.
With
a .547"
core
thickness
and .710"
overall
thickness,
we are
substantially
thicker
and more
durable
than the
imports.
NOTE:
People
ask
exactly
how rigid
it is,
and if
the top
will tip
or break
on the
edge.
I
have the
top
overhanging
the
bottom
table by
12" in
this
picture.
The
equivalent
of
putting
the 58"
top on a
24"
table.
That's
a full
gallon
bottle of
water on
the
edge!
The
rest of
the top
has
nothing
on it at
all and
is not
being
held down
in any
way.
