When looking for wood for furniture, there are a few considerations to make. Often, it is a matter of preference, although it makes sense to look into the timber’s grain structure, the type of wood (soft vs hard), and the tree itself from where the timber came from. If you have been contemplating on what wood is best for your furniture piece, you may have come across the Tasmanian Blackheart Sassafras as one of your top choices.

A pool table that works as a dining table with just a touch of a button is every entertainer’s dream. And that’s where the idea for the Entertainer came from. Not everyone has a spacious living area or a dedicated playroom. If you have limited space to work with, it does not mean you cannot own a pool table. Chances are, your dining table takes up so much room.

Finishing timber is the process of ensuring the wooden surface is more refined and protected. It marks the final stage of the manufacturing process. Through finishing timber, the surface of the wood gets desirable characteristics from its appearance to moisture resistance. When wood is finished, it is easier to clean. Sanitisation is straightforward because all pores are sealed, which keep bacteria away.

It is no wonder that The Precision is the most popular pool table manufactured by Quedos Billiard Tables.

The model is very modern and very minimalistic. A steel frame eliminates the “bulky” base of a traditional pool table with the 8ft. model requiring only 4 legs compared to 6 for a standard pool table. The concealed lycra pockets on The Precision replace the exposed nylon or cotton white nets on most pool tables.

Staying in is the new going out!

Australians are redirecting travel budgets to home improvement and, more specifically, home entertainment as a consequence of restrictions on travel and social distancing requirements.

One of the popular ways to enjoy time at home is by playing a wide variety of board and table games, including pool. Players of all skill levels try their luck as they take shots and strive to pocket the balls.

Pool and snooker tables require exacting standards to select the timber used in production. We want to ensure that every piece makes sense in the design and that the table outlasts generations. At Quedos, our craftsmen use many hardwoods in our tables, but we frequently come back to our favourite Australian native species.

There may be nothing more iconic than native hardwood species with their long, storied past in Australia.

Wood is the fibrous substance of a tree. It’s the very thing that provides support for the tree so that it will stay stable and grow. While some people tend to use the term “wood” to mean timber, these two terms are not the same. In Australia, New Zealand, and the UK, timber is sawn wood and processed wood products. They are used for home construction, decking, cladding, and making furniture pieces, such as pool, billiard, and snooker tables.
