Tables? Are there any Table Builders here?

[Son of Cliff]

Right now because glass is basically in fashion in modern architecture there's amazing things being done with it. I first thought about it about 6 months ago after watching a couple of episodes of Grand Designs. There are specialist glass companies out there now making custom built hardened laminated glass that would do the job well I'd think. Although I'd stress I'm far from an expert on the subject of snooker tables! But glass can be built to be bullet proof, it can also be built as 'Blast resistant'. It's tough enough I have no doubt, it has to be resistant to the elemts because it's specifically designed to be. But the costs involved, and as mentioned the sound, may be the issue.

What you must remember is that today under table heating is used on tables at matches and on ordinary tables in houses, and slate will hold this heat because it is so dense were glass will not, also I would imagine that the roll of the balls will be different depending on what is under the cloth.
