Weekend Project: Disappearing Trap Door Pool Table
By Doug Aamoth
Summer's over, the kids are back in school, and weekends are starting to slow down a bit, right? So why not take the weekend to dig yourself a giant rectangular enclosure right in the middle of your living room, add a big lifting mechanism, and drop in a nice pool table?
I have no idea how hard it'd be to set up a system like this, but I'm pretty sure you'd want to know what's directly below the floorboards and be confident that you'd be able to stick hundreds of pounds of felt-covered marble down there without causing any problems.
Still, this is very, very cool, huh?

Wow. Am amending rule #95 'Never play craps with a guy called Snake Eyes' to include 'or shoot Pool for cash with a guy who has his own retractable table'.
