lew Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 I've always enjoyed playing pool and have a large 27' x 17' family room down stairs so finally decided to buy a table. It was delivered and installed on Friday and we had friends and family over for the weekend and had a blast breaking it in. Gonna be a great way to spend those long cold winter evenings. 3
DanD Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 Nice looking table or should I say nice piece of furniture. Dan.
lew Posted October 22, 2018 Author Report Posted October 22, 2018 Thanks Dan and your right, it really is a nice piece of furniture entirely made with hardwood throughout.
Rustic-Fisher Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 Nice , just sold ours to make room for kids toys and sports equipment lol. i do however Have a Billiards type light that hung over the table . Three lamps . yours for free if you want it ?
lew Posted October 22, 2018 Author Report Posted October 22, 2018 Thanks bud, extremely generous offer and much appreciated but the area is already well lit from above now. Goodonya to make the offer though.
Phil S C Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 Should move pretty nice with a 60 horse on the back. Love the 6 rod holders. 3
crappieperchhunter Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 Thats a beauty Lew. And yes it would be nice to have especially in the winter. I used to play a lot of pool and always wanted a table. When we built our house in 88 I specifically had a steel "I " beam installed so my 24 X 24 basement would have no jack posts in the entire room....leaving me lotsa room for a pool table. Cost me a good penny extra back in the day to have this done but I wanted a pool table. Fast forward to the present and I still have no table...lol. Still love to play but things just progressed differently and the room always ended up getting used for other things. No regrets whatsoever and I no longer want a table....but DAMN....that set up you have looks good. Enjoy it Lew. I can just imagine the hours of enjoyment you and your friends and family will get out of it.
BillM Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 I was hoping I'd see a 9'6 muskie rod and Tranx 500 attached to it j/k Lew, gotta love a few rounds of pool!
ratherboutdoors Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 Love the felt colour! We inherited my in-laws and put new red felt on ours following their downsize. No pics handy but it sure doesn't hold a candle to the craftsmanship in the frame that yours has.
misfish Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 Nice new entertainment Lew. Played lots in my younger years. Mostly snooker. 8 ball on the smaller tables.
lew Posted October 22, 2018 Author Report Posted October 22, 2018 Thanks boyz, I'm lookin forward to many enjoyable evenings at the table.
Fisherman Posted October 22, 2018 Report Posted October 22, 2018 A very nice addition but when it comes to billiards, I couldn't sink a ball unless I tilted the table. ?
farsider Posted October 23, 2018 Report Posted October 23, 2018 Nicely done sir! She's a beaut! Cheers, Mark
AKRISONER Posted October 23, 2018 Report Posted October 23, 2018 had a pool table in my parents house growing up, one summer my best friend and I would hang out every day and play a game of pool, then a game of madden, then bike to his house and go swimming, then come back and repeat. We did this for an entire summer, and that winter I was staying at horseshoe resort for a ski trip with my friends family and there was a "pool" event where you could compete in a tournament...turns out that playing 10 games of pool every day for 2 months straight turns you into a pretty good pool player lol. I was 14 years old and beat everyone haha.
bigbuck Posted October 23, 2018 Report Posted October 23, 2018 With a couple of logs burning and your bevvie of choice, many an enjoyable evening will be spent there. A light directly over the table adds to the ambiance. Just saying.
lunkerbasshunter Posted November 2, 2018 Report Posted November 2, 2018 I still play a lot of pool. Love the game! Its a great way to spend a winters night! Cheers!
Rattletrap2 Posted November 11, 2018 Report Posted November 11, 2018 Beautiful addition to the room Lew! Enjoy!
Old Ironmaker Posted November 11, 2018 Report Posted November 11, 2018 I know tables and that Sir is top notch. I always had a table, when I was single. It appears smacking balls around in the middle of the night keeps people awake. The best table I had was a 3X6 and took loonies to play. Buddies had to buck up to play.

I/we paid a pretty penny too to have the garage bumped out an extra 5' so I could keep my future boat nice and dry inside. I finally bought the boat in 2005, no garage.
plowjock Posted December 5, 2018 Report Posted December 5, 2018 I once knew a girl who had legs like that table. Beautiful piece of work, the table that is.
