    I just noticed GeodeJem's post of a similarly 'repurposed' dartboard earlier today with kind of a double-take -- "WOW" (I says to myself) "I guess I'm not the only one that's ever had that idea?!! :-) :-) :-)

    In my case, the dartboard is a BUD LIGHT branded version made by DART WORLD in England, which I got from a buddy (~20yrs ago) who was then an active dart player at a local bar -- he got it from the same bar when it got replaced with a new one due to being rather "worn out" around its center, such that it would drop people's otherwise accurately thrown darts. (and people didn't *like* that?!! <lol>)

    For a pedestal I used a hollow black plastic spool which was handy at the time, something saved from the trash at work which originally held a few hundred feet of rubber hose. The round glass top (probably also tempered, but I don't think its marked as such) was once the front of an industrial light fixture (I think) which was also handy, plus being the perfect size. :-)

      Great idea and sounds like the price was right. HAPPY NEW YEAR !

      Very Nice. But if you get some lights and put them under the dart table you get a room lamp as well...a disco ball might be overKill!

      I have no suggestions as I'm know as an "inferior desecrater".

      THANKS blunderbuss2, fortapache, Brunswick, & especially GeodeJem for your <loves> and comments!! You'll havta trust me GJ, there's no shortage of other 'light up things' already in my living room with this table (incl. the brass lamp that usually lives atop it, moved for pics) so I don't really need more lights under it -- but OTOH, I'm *still* looking for a disco ball to add to my collection...? <lol>
