Silverthorne 8ft 3pc slate - Silverthorne used to make custom finish/felt combos... before they went out of business.
We've had it for almost 30 years. Only one I've ever seen with black/white color combination.

A Billiard thread! Now we're talking. Championship Green is classic and inbetween blue and green.
Peter Vitalie table; the last manufacture of billiard tables in america along with my Meucci Hall of Fame 01 cue.

Refinished 1964 Brunswick Gold crown I and my wrapless pfd studios. Table is a tank that will outlive me by 100 years.

What are the other two?

Quoted from drummermike:

What are the other two?

Connelly and AE Schmidt, but no fear, Olhausen is the table of Champions and as you'll
see, has a very solid rating..
I might add that I've seen tables that seem to play fine that aren't on this list..

Okay here's a little homage to my "home model" Brunswick pool table which currently lays on it's side between a wall and 3 pinball machines because I have a problem with wanting more pinball machines.

You have one of those chairs to wait your turn like the tournaments. I would like those but dont have the room.

For me it’s one of those chairs to change out light bulbs in the ceiling when I don’t feel like getting the ladder out

When covid hit it was priority to get the basement finished. We shoot for a couple hours basically everyday. It's our entertainment as we haven't been to a bar in 5 months now.

Who needs bars with that place? You just need people to play against. The light tone wood table is original.

... You just need people to play against. ...

One of the key reasons my gameroom transitioned from pool to pinball.

My wife and I would shoot pool three or four times a week at the bar before covid. A couple of beers each and 10 games on a shitty old table is $30 a day.

When we started dating 20+ years ago we'd hang out at our local pubs playing darts and shooting pool. We love that we finally have our own table.

Helps that your other half loves shooting pool as much as you do.

I scored a couple sets of original six NHL pool balls at a yard sale last week. Well if you ever want to be confused, this is the set for you. We had to swap in a red snooker ball as the cue ball and still have a habit of hitting random white balls as the cue ball. The novelty has already worn off and will look better on the rack.

Just finished a little tribute to a buddy’s(he has passed)band from high school. Those guys built something pretty special early in life.

Speak of the Devil, I just mentioned to the wife tonight how cool a logo on a table would be. She said hell no but a giant 49ers logo on a gold cloth would be amazing! Or a Raiders logo on a light grey or black cloth would be sweet

I didn't know they made those, I'm a hockey fan but what a terrible idea. I would love to get the blacklight set with accesories for fun but it would be too much for me to change over.
