All my life, I wanted a pool table.
Back in June, my wife purchased a pool table from her cousin in Missouri. She didn't want it and had it on Craig's List to sell. My wife saw it, called me to ask if we should buy it from her for $1,200.00, and my reply was, "Hell, Yeah!" It is a $4,000.00 table.
It finally arrived tonight in crates on pallets.
The slate...
Retirement is looking good. I cannot wait to put this thing together!
Of course, once we finish the flooring in the recreation room, we will assemble it and enjoy. This project has been put in a "rush" status.
As of yesterday, here is the progress...
I cut some 2x4s like this to support and stabilize the joists. I was think of using shims, but shims tend to loosen over time. With this kind of support, I can place to fit under the joists and screw the support into the joists.
