How we write these guides
Every figure comes from a rulebook or from the product data of the tables and cues we sell. Where we give a rule of thumb, the guide says so. Prices are from the knightshot.com price list of 13 November 2026 and include 5% VAT.
We link products we sell because that is what we know. If a question is not answered here, ask the showroom: the people who install the tables answer on WhatsApp.
