slate bed snooker table upstairs?

[chelsea25]

Would i be able to have a slate bed snooker table upstairs in my house 6 x 3 ft, or would it fall through the floor?

Do you live in a flat?? if so try it and it does fall through the floor at least your neighbour below will always get that pool table in his lounge he`s always wanted.
Couldn`t resist :) LOL

LOL!!
I live in a 3 storie(sp)? terraced house

LOL, I guess it all boils down to the size of the age of property, floor joists etc.
We`ve got a slate bed pool table in our family room, but we did get it for free!!
From the neighbour above us LOL
Oppps couldn`t resist (again)
TBH theres not that much of weight in them, throw caution to the wind and get yourself one

If you are worried, why don't you place it on a large sheet of 3/4" ply to distribute the weight over more joists, will be a lot safer!!
