Title: Billiards Post by: jay on January 20, 2010, 01:39:29 AM My home game room includes a Pool table and a Bar with a draft Beer tower. Having no taps for this I went on ebay and purchased around 32 taps for what it would cost me to purchase 1 or 2 new.
Rather than then let these sit in a drawer I wanted to display them. I have since built a ball rack to hold my spare set of snooker balls and my spare tap handles. (Pictures soon). Anyways I now want to add a score board onto this but I can't find any parts to build a scoreboard. The snooker score board consists of a rails with two markers on it and they would point to the values below. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 00 Typically there would be a rail above the scoring for player 1 and a rail below for player 2. Does anyone know where to get such parts ?? Title: Re: Billiards Post by: Ron (r273) on January 20, 2010, 11:49:24 AM My home game room includes a Pool table and a Bar with a draft Beer tower.

I ordered some wood scoring beads. I don't have a pool table. :103- http://www.ozonebilliards.com/ (http://www.ozonebilliards.com/) Richard Title: Re: Billiards Post by: jay on January 30, 2010, 07:27:29 PM Here is what I built.
It displays some of my spare bar taps and holds my spare ball set...... I was going to add in the scoring across the bottom. Title: Re: Billiards Post by: Ron (r273) on January 30, 2010, 07:37:03 PM Not bad but next time let's see some wood buttons over those mounting screws. :97-
Just kidding Jay! Looks real good, did the wife come up with the design? Ron (r273) Title: Re: Billiards Post by: jay on January 30, 2010, 07:39:13 PM Your absolutely right about the mounting screws. I really should remove them, counter sink a hole then fill them with some plugs.

This is what I did with my spare tap handles. The chrome spouts are cheap and look cool. Title: Re: Billiards Post by: StatFreak on February 09, 2010, 07:58:17 AM It's better you to have a kind of furniture that has a functioning as a score board location. This might be help you to develop new ones rather to make a compliment. It's good also to know the best factor of what other say because it can help you to gain an idea. Exactly! :103- Dan #2 Someone please nuke this jerk off Not much on content. :127- K+ to all three of you for keeping this active until a moderator got to it.
