The table is 274 cm by 162 cm. The room needs to be bigger than that by a long way, because\nthe game happens behind the table, not on it. As a rough guide, allow at least 1.5 m clear at each\nend and about 1 m each side for a casual game, and more if anybody is any good.
\n\nA garage with 2 m of run out at one end and a wall at the other still works. You just always\nserve from the same end.
\n\nFold one half vertical and the ball comes back to you. It is the cheapest way to practise\nconsistency, and it is the feature that decides whether a table gets used midweek or only when\nguests come.
\n\nThe safety latch matters here: it locks the half in the upright position so it cannot come down\non somebody. Check it engages every time rather than assuming, especially with children around.
\n\nBecause the halves are independent, one of them can be a side table, a buffet or a work surface\nwhen the room is doing something else. It also makes moving the thing possible: 67.6 kg in one\npiece is a job for three people, and in two halves it is a job for two.
\n\nEach half has four casters, and they all lock. Lock them before play; an unlocked table walks\nacross a smooth floor during a rally.
\n\nEngineered wood is stable indoors and hopeless outdoors. Damp gets in through the edges, the\nboard swells, and no amount of care flattens it again. A garage is fine if it is dry. A\nconservatory in August and a shed in November are not.
\n\nWipe with a barely damp cloth. Never leave water sitting on the surface and never lean the\nhalves against a wall in a puddle of condensation.
\n\nA clamp net with tension adjusters lets you set the height properly: 15.25 cm at the posts,\neven across the middle. A saggy net changes the game more than most players realise, and a net\nstrung too tight bows the posts over time.
\n\nIf you want a net you can take somewhere else, the retractable net in this range clamps to any\ntable up to 5 cm thick.
