for a right arm table and overlap each other by 1/2 to the left of
center for a left arm table.

f)
|
Touch
Pads:
|
Should be on an angle,
5" out from the inside corner of the elbow pad to the inside
corner of the pad and 1/2" from its respective edge measured
to the outside corner of the pad. Running at an angle
towards the hand peg it should measure 2 3/4" from the hand
peg to the outside corner of the touch pad.
If it’s for a right arm table, these
measurements should be made on the left side of the elbow pad and
reversed if it’s a left arm table. |

|
Hand Pegs:
|
Should be placed
midway at 13" on each edge of the table, 1" in from the

MATERIAL |
|
| |
The best material to
use is square tubing although tubular steel, flat iron or
angle iron may be used,
but not more than 2"
in diameters or width.
The table top and seat
top are normally made of 3/4" thick plywood.
The table top and seat
may have a thin sheet of foam, covered with vinyl/rexin type
material to add a comfortable finished look.
No plexi-glass or
reflective tape is to be used on the table top or seats. |

RISER PLATFORMS |
| |
Riser platforms can be used by competitors who have a height
disadvantage. Riser platforms can be used in combination with
platform shoes or multiple platforms, to raise the competitor, to at
least bring their waist to the table top. Competitors can use a
personal riser with prior permission of the Head Referee before the
start of contest.
For consistency and ease of handling reasons, riser platforms will
be built of 1/2" thick plywood, 4" high x 36" wide x 32" deep. They
will be notched at the top part, as to fit the table legs on each
their respective side, to prevent them form slipping out during
competition. Approximately 3" from the top, the notches, on either
side will be located.
A hand slot will be cut in the center to facilitate the removal and
installation of the riser platform. |
