Thanks Craigsub, it is actually Home Theaters like yours that have given me the drive to take on this project.
Bray, thanks for the comments. Actually that is a cheap fooseball all-in-one table we picked up at a garage sell for our 6yr old. It has table tennis/shuffle board/bowling/ etc...
After I get everything carpeted, my dad is giving us his 3/4" slate pool table. They don't use it like when us kids were around. Most likely I'll add air hockey and a nice fooseball table at some point. I already have a decent electronic dart machine.
thanks again.
