Best Pool Table EVAR!

Posted by Alex in Home & Garden, Pictures, Sports on September 20, 2009 at 3:08 am

All right. So John Farrier has posted a couple of really cool pool tables. The first one is Deep Green, a pool-playing robot created by the robotics lab of Queen’s University in Canada. The second one is the $200,000 Obscura CueLight Pool Table that creates an interactive image using an overhead projector.

Well, fie! The first two rounds belong to you, John. But in this game of Neatorama one upmanship, I’m compelled regain top dog status and post a pool table to beat ‘em all.

Behold, the Snooker Sofa, created by Accrington upholsterer and UK pool table maker Riley in the 1970s.

Can your pool table transform into a sofa, John? Just look at that beauty and weep: Link

Note: And yes, you may have seen this one round the Net back a couple of months ago, and was on eBay (since then it’s been out of eBay).

Sofa Transforms Into a Pool Table

I must’ve been living under a rock since I missed the bidding on this super awesome sofa/pool table combo. The sofa, a 1970s collaboration between Pierce upholsterer and pool table manufacturer Riley, is probably one of a kind prototype – it’s perfect for a retro bachelor pad!

The sofa/pool combo has made its way round the Net, but I found it while surfing About Colon Blank: Link

Glass Pool Table Is Very Neat!

For only $26,150, you too can own a G-1 Glass pool table by Nottage Design.

It almost looks like you’re playing pool in mid air. By replacing the long traditional, tried-and-true felt and slate table top for some slippery glass, the game might not feel quite normal, but it will look stunning.
