Find out more about the design process for the bed
The bed is made from a medium density wood fibre composite called Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF). This design choice makes the table light, flat, smooth, and robust. We drew inspiration from aeronautics (see Unique features) by adding stringers underneath the bed to further reinforce it, render it less sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity, and help the bed withstand the weight it often supports during practice.
Unique features: stringers
In the design of longitudinal frames on aeroplane wings, stringers, coupled with the fuselage's ribs and frame, stiffen the structure to support pressure and deformations. Following the same idea, we have added metallic stringers and longerons underneath the bed. A reinforced frame prevents the drooping that occurs on tables lacking a good structure, including slate tables.
Your table's added benefits
Your billiards table includes sights (called diamonds) on the frame for improved accuracy. Its net pockets are quiet. Its felt is robust. Its feet are adjustable and made of metal. The stainless steel corners are reinforced and round for improved safety. Finally, your billiards table is certified FSC (Forest Stewardship Council).
Necessary playing space for comfort
You have to feel comfortable to play billiards, and this largely depends, among other things, on the playing area. The best way to delimit this area is to have the length of a billiards cue (1.45 m) on each side of your table And you must provide for an extra 5cm for your stroke (the back and forth motion of the cue before your hit).
In a nutshell? You need 21.5m² for the BT 700 billiards table (or 514 x 418cm).
Marbles or balls? HOLES OR POCKETS? Here is some billiards vocabulary
"If you ever hear the term "holes" in reference to pool, that isn't the right word for the sport!
That's right! If you want to start playing pool, you'll need to put balls in the pockets (not the holes).
But how? By shooting the white ball with a cue. Here we talk about a cue, rather than a stick."
Are you learning to play pool? OUR TEAM HAS SOME TIPS FOR STARTING OUT
Contrary to popular belief, pool is actually a sport! And an accuracy sport in this case.
Take your time finding a stable stance so that you are comfortable and capable of reproducing the same accurate movement.
Finally, rather than leaving it to chance, rely on strategy, accuracy, and success.
Makes sense? Visualise your shots and dare to shoot at the pack to see what you can get :)
Maintaining your billiards felt
Your billiards felt is unlikely to tear. Maintenance improves quality of play and increases the lifespan of your table. Here's our tips:
- Avoid sun exposure and cover between games.
- Keep food, drinks and cigarettes away from the felt.
- Avoid chalk marks by chalking your tip away from the table.
- Use a vacuum with a flat brush to remove dust.
- Use warm water and a piece of felt to remove stains and improve glide.
