I know there is a "show your home room" thread but this will take several posts over several days so I'm starting a separate thread. I've been away from the forum for a few years due to other priorities, not playing much, work related travel and generally putting pool on the back burner. I'm in a medium size ranch house I built about 11 or so years ago. It has a full "walk out" level basement that up until a year ago was a workshop/junkyard full of stuff I kept only because I had the room for it. A few years back, after one too many bad experiences playing in local halls/bars, I decided to get a table at home. I had a 80 year old Brunswick in my previous home...never again. I found this Gold Crown III in a bar an hour away, $500 + new cloth + a 15' x 25' chunk of Home Depot carpet and I was back in business. Not pretty but the table played great and was a gathering spot most every week for a few years.
