Title: Pool tables, don't you love 'em!
Post by: Crashramp on December 21, 2014, 07:41:32 PM
Who else has a pool table and does it get as much use as mine?

It's gets heaps of use and occasionally we even play pool on it.

Never considered one because of this reason. They're not much fun to play on your own.

Yep, when I built the room I built it for a pool table and thought I might put a pinball or two in there as well.... I didn't know they bred!
Apart from being a work bench I do like having the pool table, it doesn't get that much use but when it does occasionally have the cover off I do enjoy it.

Bought a brand new pool table and loved it. But it took up too much room so I gave it to a mate for free and bought new pins to go in its place. Will buy another one when I buy a bigger house and will enjoy playing pool again.
Some great pool tables in kit form on ebay that play really well. And priced well as well.

I never realised what great work benches they made until my mate bought his first pin (and seven now of course), and I started using his whenever I am over there fixing something, very handy indeed!
