Picked up the Pool table from Nino today.
Handmade by his father in 1969, in great condition for it's age.
All working coin mech and locks.

Thanks again Nino, my brother and i had a few games after we got her set up and level.
Thought i was doin quite well, won first 3 games in a row, till we discovered there were 2 more small balls than bigs!!

Good one, the only trouble with a pool table is it leaves less room for pinball machines.

[Duckman]

Tell me about it, I have no idea where i will put my spacies and wcs. 
But i'll just have to re-organise when the time comes.

i bought a brand new pool table. it lasted about 2 months before i gave it away to a mate for free cause the pinballs were complaining that the big green guy was taking too much room.

always great to play some pool whilst drinking bourban !

well done duckman. well done nino, another mancave ! 

[Duckman]

Thanks Cavey.

Guess i'll have to move (Get rid of) the gym equipment when my pins come home, I know what will get more use!!

No worries Tim - Glad you a piece of my family history is in your gamesroom. I told you it was a heavy table mate 

I thought Dad said it was made in 1965 - but he was making them right up to 1974, as I have pictures of me as a child playing inside an incomplete table. Was interesting to note - That this table style of table was the fist coin operated billiard table in Australia. The FIRST table is still in storage and will remain in the family with the first Soccar table (in my gamesroom).

I blame Dad for not counting the balls mate - Let me know what you need and I'll post them to you. I'll check with Daniel's set tomorrow.

Enjoy it mate

NICE Setup tim your doing well.  Table looks shit hot and dont worry about room i ran out of room at 3 pinballs i know have 10 THERE IS ALWAYS ROOM.......   If you get stuck let me know ill work out a way to arrange it all 

[Duckman]

Thanks Daniel, she's certainley solid i'll tell ya that.  Looks real good, i plan on buffing the metal peices of it (coin mech, and metal corners) give it a bit of bling.   

Just been on ebay rounding up some accessories, Table brush, cover, chaulk holder and "special cue" just for me. LOL

arrrrrr love the mancave aint pool tables grand but not when you move them, how quickly friends dissapear when you have to, and it always reminds me off a photo of a russian weight lifter that poped his sphinkter (spelling?)

[Duckman]

Thanks YD, As i said to Dan it sure is solid. The one upside of moving it to it's new home was that we didn't have to get it through any small doorways once we got home. My brother and i, one each end. First the base then the slab. Wasn't so bad, sent my sis out for fish and greasies and enjoyed an arvo of music, pool and drinks.

AHHHHH, this is the life....

[Extra Ball]

good to see garages better used for toys, which means we all own rusty cars 

[Duckman]

It's all good, I had the cars in there...........once
