A Pool Table That Fits On Your Desk! This innovative game features interchangeable layouts that make the gameplay more exciting. Each player starts with four marbles (½" diameter peewee marbles, available on Amazon), which they place on the black dots at either end of the table. Using miniature cues, players must shoot through holes in the side of the game to get all their marbles into the pocket on the other side. There's also a penalty hole that adds an extra challenge: if a player hits a marble into this hole, they must put it back where it started and give their opponent an extra shot! You can even create your own rules for this hole or the entire game! The game is made up of nine separate pieces: two support stands, two drawers to catch marbles, two cues, the main frame, a interchangeable game field, and a side tray for the penalty hole. Two alternative playing fields are included in the files attached below. To increase friction on the playing field, I applied a layer of double-sided Scotch tape and added a small piece of white fabric on top, then cut out holes and drew black dots to mark the marbles' starting positions. The model was assembled using super glue, but don't glue the drawers in place! The total dimensions are 4.5" W x 6.5" L x 3.25" H (including small bump-outs for cue holders).

The Replicator 2 usually doesn't need rafts, but you might want to add them depending on your printer. This design was created in SketchUp.
