Remember those orange and white ball counters above the tables at most tournaments and pool halls. Is that something you can buy or make?
Can't seem to find any info on them online.
Thanks
 
I believe practice golfballs come in white and orange and are made with holes like wiffle balls. Great score counters for a low price. Price should be cheap this time of the year.

Might be time for another project!
 
In our local room(from memory)-it seems to be 'perforated wiffel or practice golf balls that slide along-I'm guessing-brazing rod or some heavy wire stock. They are above and part of the wooden light box fixture.

Now, you have me wondering-I'll look closer next time I'm there.
 
They are practice golf balls, hard times in Bellflower has them above every table in the tournament room, I made my own, bought a metal rod and made the ends out of blocks of wood, although I spray painted some of the balls black, I didn't like having orange so I bought all white golf practice balls, I have a support beam next to my table which is in the garage and mounted it to that with screws.
 
I made a few sets using foam balls from a crafts store on heavy fishing line. I painted the foam balls the same color as pool balls. Came out real nice

Might have to give that a try. Thanks.
