Here are the parts I had lazier cut on Wednesday at 1:00 P.M. There are nine pieces in total. Note: (These parts are smaller than the actually planned size.) Measurements of the full size: Backboard and surface 12.25 in wide and 22 in long. Six holes measure 1.24 inches wide and 1.24 Inches Long. Three railings the size of 12.25 in wide and 22 in long. Sides are 22 inches long and 5 inches wide, and Corner boards are 13.25 inches long and 5 inches wide. These are the measurements of the full-size model and not the prototype. These parts are made from scrap wood, and the actual wood I will use is a quarter-inch plywood.
Here is the model put together roughly with the materials I had on hand. For the most part, all but two pieces of the pool table fit together perfectly. My measurements of the corner pieces were off, and I will need to adjust the designs on Adobe Illustrator. Lastly, I need to figure out a way to remove the pool balls from the table in an easy-to-use method. Perhaps I’ll add internal ramps and an easy access hole for the pool balls to be removed from.
