Some billiard tables will have three pieces of slate and some will have 1 piece. Even professionals sometimes cannot tell by looking at the billiard table if it is a 1 or 3 piece slate. If assumed it is a 1 peice slate and handled that way by an amateur one could end up without a billiard table because the slate may be broken.
Slate is heavy!
Billiard table slate dates back througout time as being the ideal choice for the playfield of a billiard table due to it's density and abiltiy to make flat, one piece slates that are 8 foot long are generally about 7/8 of an inch thick and have a shipping weight of appox. 400 lbs. After tearing down the billiard table it must be transported which can be difficult if you don't have the right equipment and vehicle. After transportation the billiard table must be set up or "installed" which is a whole process of screws, levels, nuts, bolts and professional experience working on billiard tables.
