To mark any pool table(as they vary by manufacturer in exact size,)first measure the width of the slate then half this measurement. This is the spot mark, (which should be the centre point between the middle pockets and the corner pockets in an imaginary cross between the pockets). IE if the table is 39" wide,then measure from the edge of the slate,19.5"up the table and place the spot mark 19.5" from the edge of the table where the measurements meet.This is the exact spot mark. The line (baulk line) is one fifth of the slates length from the edge of the cushion. IE if the slate is 75" long then a fifth of this is 15"...measure 15" up the table from the edge of the cushion,place a mark on both sides and draw your baulk line. centre of baulk line spot will be 19.5". Sounds more complicated than it is and its easy to do but harder to explain. This method works for any pool table size up to 8' as far as i know. Hope this helps.
