This was the third billiard table I built. I built it for my church’s new youth center. I built it in the Mission style. I used white oak. I wanted something that was a solid design without alot of clutter on it that could be damaged by teen use, but at the same time look classy. The problem I had with all of my billiard tables is the lack of space in my shop. I had to put this together in my dining room. My wife is looking forward to my shop expansion so we can avoid this situation.

Beautiful billiards table to a worth while ministry. Thanks for the tip, I’ll be assembling projects in my dining room from now on until my wife approves a new workshop. Thank you for sharing.

Mike- Heck, I don’t know what she’s complaining about… slap some ply on that baby and you’ve got a dining room table… lol…
In all seriousness, FANTASTIC JOB!! These look like they would be a really serious build… I’m not sure If I would know where to start.
