the table looks good, if you want it higher could you not get 4 more 8 balls and double stack them to raise it up?

Not a bad idea but i measured the height today and it's about the same as the table I took the glass from so should be ok.

Piston tops didn't quite sit level so put a notch in the con rods  Better (although it doesn't look like it from the picture)...  Not sure why the photos are bigger than normal, uploaded them the same way as before  |

All polished up, not very good on close inspection but not bad, it'll never be perfect as the face of the block has some pitting and imperfections. Just waiting on some new rubber feet and a few washers here and there to finish it off.....    |

Thanks.
Been looking at the 8 ball feet, something's not right so I've moved them closer to the edge - the centre of them is now equidistant to the sides and edge of the base which has helped.
Got some aluminium round bar to turn down into feet for the balls to sit on and the existing rubber feet to sit inside, which should finish it off nicely.......

New feet done (well, not done, they need tidying up a little) - original set up on left, new version on right with rubber foot now inside aluminium part....  |
