Pool Table Accessories For Your Game Room

What else do you need in the way of pool table cover accessories for your pool table now you have one at last? Well for a pool table unlike a snooker table you don't need any so called long tackle (the extra long cues and rests) as the tables are much smaller. However you will need a spider. If you are not sure what a spider is, it's a cue rest with a high arch to it that can go over a pool ball so you can play over the ball to hit the cue ball when the cue ball is resting near or against another ball. They are usually made of brass.
And as with all billiards tables, you need to take care of the cloth, so a soft brush would be useful to keep it clean and you can get billiard cloth cleaner for getting rid of any stains as well. You can also vacuum the cloth with a low suction vacuum.
You will also need a triangle for the pool balls, which is usually for 15 balls if you play the 8 ball game, just make sure you specify the triangle for the size of balls you've got, a 15 ball triangle for 2 inch balls for example. And if you want to vary your pool  games to play 9 ball, you'll need a 9 ball diamond rack for your size balls as well.
A pool cue rack would be good to have, do not just leave the cues on the table, stand them upright in a rack and they are less likely to warp.
An absolutely essential accessory is a table cover, either plastic or cloth to keep the cloth free from dust and to stop the colour from fading too fast.
