Yes, good tip! The standard size playing surface for an 8ft table is 88x44" as outlined in the video. However, there are tables out there that don't conform to the standards (like your table in this case). All of the rules for positioning of the spots outlined in the video remain relevant, but if your table does not confirm to the standard sizes you should be able to easily calculate for your specific requirement using the information outlined in the video (which gives breakdowns of percentages, e.g. 1/3 as well as measurements).

Hey there! We can probably assist with that. Be sure to watch our Snooker Marking on Pool Table video (here: th-cam.com/video/qpSyuPh2ML0/w-d-xo.html). So, for the black spot on a 6 foot table, the same principal would apply for 6, 7, 8 and 9 foot... any size really, the principal is 1/11 of the playing surface length from the rear cushion. We don't give the figure for a 6 foot table as we've focused on USA/Canadian viewers mainly using the larger ball size, but you can do the claculation in 5 seconds with a calculator, playing surface length divided by 11. That is how to get the scale correct, and on a 6 foot table that will be getting pretty close to the rear cushion, but on a 6 foot (assume British?) table you will be using smaller balls too (not the 57mm used on 7/8/9 foot USA/Canada tables). Hope that helps :-)
Yes, this is something that we may actually delve into in the future! It's usually fairly easy to work out as the long side is divided into 8 sections, and 4 on the ends (short sides). So, a 9ft standard tables should have a 100x50" playing surface, so 100 divided into 8 is 12.5" between targets, which you can measure outwards from the centre pocket for the sides. There's more to cover such as depth from the cushion face etc. Hopefully we can cover this in-depth at some point in the future! --- To help support us (for both you and others reading this) there are a few things you can do: 1) Donations both needed and welcome!

Great explanation!!! (As they all are!!!) love ‘em!! 👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you,. much appreciated!
Great video. Just a heads up ...measure and confirm your table dimensions before you mark. My 8ft table has a playing surface of 46" X 92"
Yes, good tip! The standard size playing surface for an 8ft table is 88x44" as outlined in the video. However, there are tables out there that don't conform to the standards (like your table in this case).

I always found it funny that a snooker table is the size of a prison cell lol
Yes, bitter sweet irony 🙂
Nice

Can you please do a video on marking the black ball on a 6 foot pool table for snooker

Do you have any videos of you (or anyone) playing snooker on a 9ft American pool table?
I don't, unfortunately. But there's got to be something on TH-cam somewhere 👍
What about measuring the diamonds along the rails ( pool table )many don't have diamonds. Would love some help with that please.
