Being in Portland, you may want to talk to others with garage tables. I had one briefly in an unfinished, unattached garage. It took forever to heat up the room, but it could double as a 'party' area. A friend also has a garage GC, which he uses more often in the warmer months or after drinking enough to not mind the cold while it heats up. Another local player has a 9' Diamond, but it is in, iirc, a finished garage with heating.
Since there's a serious lack of 9' Diamonds in the PDX area, that's probably what I would opt for. You can hit up all of the bars for barbox-sized ones. Either way, enjoy.
whynot both , send kids and peop u don't want on 9 footer to small table , lol!
I had a 8 foot cheap brunswick in the garage but when I got my new car and bike I wanted the garage back so I got rid of it.
Now my wife let me turn the dinning room that we never use into a billiard room with my new 7.5 ft Olhausen Drake.

You cant be married. A pool table in the dining room would never fly.
You can put a 9' in the garage. The garage will have to be climate controlled. Humidity is your biggest enemy.

Neither, change houses.
I'm married and just got my new olhausen onto our dinning room which is now becoming my billiard room.
I've got a 9' GC and a car in my two car garage.
I hope your car isn't white.....
..otherwise, it leads to misunderstandings when you say you're trying to
learn to 'park whitey'....

I'd hire a private investigator to follow your wife.:wink:
Just kidding of course. My wife agreed to my table sharing the greatroom which put a bit of confinement on the other useful section.
I agreed to her playing ball for many years after our marriage & having children.
A good marriage is a two way street of empaphy, understanding, selflessness, giving, & sharing.
I'm glad your wife is willing to share eating with you while sitting on the floor, because I know you are not going to eat from off of the pool table.:wink:
I have the most fun on full-size tables, but that's preference.
You have to hold your stroke back so much on the 7 footers, just don't enjoy playing pool that way.

you could put a 9 footer in the garage and heat it like mine. i have a finished garage w a heating system in the table that i leave on so its warm and fast whenever i go out to hit balls and coincidentally im in oregon too. i use space heaters to heat the rest o the garage and it heats up fast.
