Scoring beads/balls

Scoring beads are a nice touch, make sure tho wherever you place them that they can be seen by both the shooting player and the seated player. If your room has allot of drunks and ball bangers, plan on them getting damaged, but they are usually not that expensive considering there probably from China. Very few players actually know how to properly use them in 14.1 so they might need assistance in the beginning.
Oops, when I hear the words beads I think of a string of beads with 50 on each side. :sorry:

I just made these up last week. We typically just count games Won and race to 11 or something similar so it's all I needed. They are one and a half inch balls bought off Amazon and drilled. They were too heavy for wire and the first small rod I tried, the steel rod sags a little bit in the middle with an 1/8th inch rod I may have to upgrade it to a 3/16 rod but I'm tired of working on it! I think they look pretty cool !

Not bad, Thanks. Might be a tad heavy to hang between the chains on the bar tables.
Looked those over at K-mart today. They want 5.99 for 9. I'll need 77. Kinda want to get it done a little cheaper. thanks
Check Amazon and eBay. I'm pretty sure I seen bags of 50 colored balls for around $10 a bag
I've been in a poolroom where they purchased Styrofoam balls and painted em and put the holes in each for mounting on the rod. I think there are different sizes to be found.
