Worlds Best Ping Pong Table

The Welding Shop Calgary Solid Metal Ping Pong TableBefore you make the worlds best ping pong table you have to take a moment to see where the common particle board, stuck in the corner of the basement, suburban ping pong table came from.

Table Tennis or Ping Pong, originated in Victorian England, where it was played among the upper-class as an after-dinner parlour game.

It has been suggested that makeshift versions of the game were developed by British military officers in the 1860s or 1870s, who set up books across the middle of a normal table and hit a golf ball back and forth using other books as paddles.

The next major innovation was by James W. Gibb, a British enthusiast of table tennis, who discovered novelty celluloid balls on a trip to the US in 1901

In the 1950s, paddles that used a rubber sheet combined with an underlying sponge layer changed the game dramatically.

The table itself underwent various iterations as technology advanced until 2018 when The Welding Shop Calgary hand welded the first Full Metal Ping Pong Table.

Want one? Get one!
