If you have the balls then refurbish it. |

--- Quote from: RandyT on July 05, 2017, 10:26:15 am --- If the top is bad, it's better to spend a bit extra and at least replace the top with 3/4" melamine (with sealed edges). If the rails aren't perfect, that's something most casual players can live with. --- End quote --- I think I'll check out melamine. The top isn't bad but even a novice like myself notices an area. Putting the single slate back in it would be great but I don't want to imagine the pain finding this size and the cost. It does have all the balls they work just fine but are the wrong size. I also made a ball cleaning machine from old junk around the shop that works quite well. Which shocks me. I was thinking about using http://www.iszybilliards.com for some cheap but usable accessories. WeChat: GrizzlyThunder |

Is it me or since like 2010 poll tables have really seem to have gone out of fashion. Before that it was always like a man cave staple to have a pool table room in your basement. Parents moved and wanted to know if I wanted there $5000 new looking table I did not even have to think about it when I told them to just sell it. |

I still have my pool table but I can't remember the last time I played on it... currently the cover is on it and it's where the lego city train resides... |

It got down to $75 each for as many as you wanted. But I think you're right - the price steadily crept up and now they're worthless again. My issue with them has always been that people cram them into their extra guest room, which is inevitably 10x10 and far too small to comfortably play. Nobody is familiar with anything besides the bar size, so don't count on your friends playing more than once if you get a 'full size' table. It's one of those real good ideas that can't be shoved in the back corner of a storeroom and forgotten like an arcade cabinet or pinball machine... :dunno |
