Challenge 483: The pool pocket problem
I came across this interesting pool table recently (and that's not a phrase you hear very often). The interesting part: the builder seems to have forgotten to include any pockets. Can you correct his mistake? High res is here.  |

Re: Challenge 483: The pool pocket problem
I'm very glad you did that Gordon  . I'd be off brief again.
Excuse me: Pedantic. Fyi I've played billiards without pockets quiet a few years ago. Does not mean I was very good but was competitive and enjoyed. Ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carom_billiards . I prefer pool and snooker but get lost on snooker table so large... So pool fine, I can even win pool sometimes so that is better .
But hey, need to get making my FC entry in. |

Steve , I couldn't get any pictures of pockets to quite match the scene perspective so I made my pockets in 3D --- while I was there I made the rest of the objects in 3D as well -- small message on the front pool balls.  |

Cheating, as in htCHEATips??? Getting the cover to fit was a lot harder than I thought it would be! _________________ "Imagination, not invention, is the supreme master of art........" Joseph Conrad |
