What is a relaxing week end without a game of monopoly or scrabble? But that was in the past. These days, you may like to update the game table to play foosball and similar.
To enjoy a good game, the 1st item you must acquire is a good, robust game table. So here we are, telling you about different types of new game table assortments, so that when you go to pick up one for your home, one will know precisely what to pick and why.
Room for improvement
Do you have a game room, or is there a corner of your living room that you would like to convert into a game area? In the case of the former, there are loads of things you can try. To begin with, there is the option of having multiple tables for different games The big table could be for poo. And what about a wood table for table tennis as well. In that case, of course, you have to consider lighting, walls, storage space and suchlike.
Different age, different games
Bubble hockey and foosball are games invented in recent times, as so too have their accessories. Consequently, the tables designed for modern games can be fairly complex. There are several multi-purpose game tables. And these tables have admirable designs so that you can change the functions by rotating or switching. This helps you save space in your room, while offering you the variety of games that you were looking for.
Board rules
Shelti and Playcraft are common makers of of game tables for shuffleboard. These tables are usually made of the best quality wood, such as oak, cedar, cypress. Many dealers today store customized tables as well. However, you can't try out your new video game on these tables. That diversity is still in the future! Most game tables you come across will have four straight or curved legs, or a straight central pedestal. Tables meant for games like foosball are commonly rectangular, with a few having green felt on tops, like secretariat tables. The usual ones are a meter or so high, and several have chairs attached. Since foosball and air hockey are both games with complex equipment and pieces, it is understood that the tables come equipped with the playing paraphernalia. And that's such a relief, don't you think? You don't have to spare other energy to get the table and the games.
Build yourself one
This is an option for those with a creative bent of mind. Several sites on the web will offer you directions to build or assemble your own game table, for a price. Air hockey and foosball being rather complex games, it is imperative that you understand the games like the back of your hand. You could also incorporate your own improvisations of the game into the table that you make. Now here's a sure way to win accolades from friends and neighbors the next time you have a game party at home.

A Brief History Of Carrom Game Tables
In 1889 Henry Haskell, a Sunday School teacher, was concerned about the growing number of boys who were hanging around pool rooms. He decided to use his clever and inventive mind to create games for the boys would be wholesome and enjoyable. Carrom has been providing family entertainment for all ages ever since. Some games tested your skills or used strategy, other games were just for fun.
The Carrom Company went through various name changes through the years (it was originally the Ludington Novelty Company until 1901), but today is known as the Carrom Company, just as it was known from 1914-1939.
The original Carrom game tables were table top games. They were usually made of wood, about 30" square which often had rounded corners and some with pockets in each corner for various games. Different game patterns were featured on each side.
Here is a brief look at the Carrom game boards manufactured up until 1945.
- A - The most beautiful and elegant board ever made, produced without change from about 1902 until 1941.
- B - "4-surface board" with removable panel, 1902-1939.
- BB - Baseball/Crokinole, 1938 - 1941.
- C - "Crown Combination" w/ Spider and Flies game, 1899-1943.
- D - No. 2 - "Flags of the Nations", 1902-1941.
- E - No. 1 - A hugely popular board, 1899-1939, painted red and black with a 1-1/2" thick rim; rare very early editions in red and green. Replaced by the "Q" style in 1934 but was briefly reintroduced from 1937 until 1939 with a 1-1/4" rim.
- F - Austere (economical) version of the "A", 1901-1938. Probably second to the "E" in popularity.
- G - No. 2 - 1901 until around 1930, a much-improved edition of Ludington Novelty Co.'s first board which had wooden pockets. Rare early editions came in red and green. All others are red and black.
- GP - mid-1940s, called "Carrom-Checkers", an unusual variant carrying the old "E" Checker design on one side and the "C" Spider & Flies on the other. 29" square.
- H - Octagonal Crokinole board, 1900 to 1936; 1904 catalog shows H-1, 29" across; H-2, 31"; H-3 exactly like H-2 but with green felt in ditch; several other varieties exist.
- H-4 - Sharp-square-cornered 28-1/2" board, 1937-1939, maybe 1940; very scarce for an inexpensive board.
- J - Elaborate baseball board produced from about 1908; still present in a 1927 catalog. Very scarce.
- K - 1939 -1941 Carrom "Viking" edition with Chinese Checkers on reverse. No marbles - a flat playing surface with lots of little wooden markers.
- LF - 1938 - 1939 baseball board honoring Lew Fonseca, baseball celebrity 1920s & 1930s; other side of board is blank. Game identical to the "BB".
- O - Late 1930s Carrom game tables, called the Carrom-Backgammon board. The Carrom/Checkers side is exactly like the corresponding side of the "E", and the opposite side carries nothing more than a full-size Backgammon pattern in red and black.
- P - "Carrom-Pleasure", late 1930s, 24" board; one side carried the Spider & Flies game and the other side carried the old game of Fox & Geese.
- Q - The "Viking" board, introduced in 1934 as replacement for the "E". Disappeared about 1947.
- QS - 1944 (only?), identical to "Q" but "finished in brown stain" according to ads, (wartime wood supply problems).
- SP - "Sport board", 1939-1941, baseball like "BB", football on other side, hard-to-find.
- T - "Carrom-Tennis", 1940-1943, 168 playing pieces, the 5-Surface board, the designers at Carrom Industries really had a ball with this fun edition, very scarce.
- X - Late 1930s, called the "Cadet".
- Y - 24" "Playboy" board introduced 1935; one could call it a more austere and smaller predecessor of the "GP"
- YP - Identical to the "Y", wartime edition made of composition-board.
Carrom still makes some classic games, but have also evolved with the times by introducing the popular games of today. Some of the Carrom game tables that are popular in family rooms across the country include air hockey, stick hockey and foosball.
So, whether you like the classic games, or the modern Carrom game table games, you can’t go wrong with a Carrom game, it is always great to see an all American company with a great and long history like the Carrom Company.

I need Table Tennis paddle/rubber/ball insights please?
My buddy and I have played for around 8 years now. We have gotten really good. However, we have always used the wooden paddles that came with the table.
We began looking for upgrades, and we found that there are so many!
Any advice?
We are both strong hitters (offensive) with about 50/50 spin/power.
Also, what does having a Level 3 ball do compared to a Level 1?
Join a league, this will determine your next level jump if any.
