I find myself in possession of some very heavy slabs that were clearly the top of an old billiards or pool table. There are 3 pieces in total, all of which look to be in great shape aside from the holes in the pocket locations. They are heavy as FUCK.

Throwing them away seems like a waste but there isn’t anything immediately coming to mind to use for them besides maybe a table top or something which doesn’t sound very exciting. Cutting them isn’t out of the question but I don’t have the tools for that on hand.

What sort of stuff would you do with them?

    Assuming you’ve an appropriate outdoor space, stack them with some landscaping stones between them into some kind of 3-tier formation.

    Possible uses:

    • Water feature (in my mind, the water would sluice down through the cutouts for the pockets)
    • Plant stand
    • Conversation piece

      Some kind of outdoor landscaping is a good idea. I don’t think I want to bother with a water feature but maybe there’s a cool way to use them for plants. Thanks for the suggestions.
