Pool table light

I was going to buy a pool table light, but didn't feel like spending the money. I thought that with the Kreg Jig, I could make one that did the job and was a lot cheaper. I was right.

Comment by Kurt on March 18, 2011 at 12:00am: You are right James. I will put a picture up with the light on. It lights up the table very well. I wanted to show how the light was made so I didn't turn the light on. I looked all over the net for homemade pool table lights, but didn't see very many. Hopefully this will help others that are looking for another option rather of paying the high price for a light. This one probably would have been about $30 in materials, but I used mostly extra materials I had around the garage. You'll notice the boards are pieced together on the sides. I think it matches the room just as well as any I could have boughten.

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.

I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
