I installed 4 2x2 led panels in my basement's drop ceiling.The panels are color tunable and dimmable. They cost about $40 each. I use a meter to measure light levels, and use a dimmer switch to set the lights at 600 lumens at the table surface. I have the color temperature set to 4000K which I...

100% correct. Frankly it's a rather simple thing to deal with the non-porous surfaces. A hassle maybe, but simple. It's the cloth that's a challenge, especially if players aren't wearing masks.

Fair enough. I'd always thought of pool balls as strictly utilitarian, but we look at them a lot more than our cues! Over the years I've spent thousands on cues - most of that on looks.

You have to have been in Vietnam to do simple math?

For insurance - easier to sell the table if necessary. You can move a 3-piece table to a non-walkout basement or upper level. Costs the same and plays the same.

My understanding is that Lysol is safe for fabrics. I'm sure at least one of our 5 local pool halls will be OK with it.

I’ve been thinking quite a bit about pool room safety. I want to start playing again, but minimize the risk as much as possible. To do that I will do the following: 1. Go to the pool hall on week days only, as soon as possible after it opens (10 or 11 depending on the venue). I expect that...
