When considering what room size you need for your pool table, you have to take into account the length and width of the pool table and the length of the cues. This will allow you to determine whether your room has enough cueing space to take your shots around the table. 

What you will need: 

1. Tape measure

2. Play field dimensions of your table

3. A calculator

Step 1: Measure your room length and width in cm

You can also do this in inches but centimeters will give you a more accurate measurement

As you can see here, you need the "cue envelope" space around the table in order to take shots without any obstructions. It is simply a case of adding the length of the cue from the edge of the cushion to see if you have enough room to take shots along the length and width of the pool table. 

Step 2: Measure the room size needed for your chosen pool table size and cue lengths. 

Cue lengths come in various lengths and you will need to know which cue length you need for your room so that you have enough cueing space to take your shots without any obstructions from walls or furniture.
