Craig Nottage decided that, for the final year of his design course at the University of South Australia, he would redesign the common pool table. His new design is a sleek metal frame with a glass top covered with a transparent film that simulates the friction of a felt top.
Then he formed a company to sell them at $25,000 a pop.
In case you think this is the only thing weird that’s been done with a pool table, ever hear of the round pool table? Here are a few other strange ones.

When I was younger, my parents bought me a small oval pool table. But the balls would always migrate to the outer edge. It was heck to get them off the wall and toward the hole in the middle of the table.
A true masterpiece ! Unfortunately I’m not sure it’s great for serious players… ??
