Article: The size of a shuffleboard table can range anywhere from nine feet to twenty-two feet. Keep in mind the amount of space you have to build and store it. You wouldn’t want to build a fourteen foot long table in a twelve foot shed. Remember you need at least two feet of additional space on each end of the table to actually play. The size you decide on will affect what dimensions and plans you use for the playing surface, the bed and the legs. You can find dimensions for shuffleboard tables online. They can save time and help you avoid mistakes. Looks for plans that are detailed and that tell you exactly how long the table should be, the width of the box, and the height of the legs. Map out the dimensions of each board you use, if you make plans yourself. Find pre-made plans at http://www.zieglerworld.com/shuffleboard-plans.htm. While maple or oak will give you the most durable table, these materials may be too expensive. For something more moderately priced, consider using plywood and bamboo flooring for the surface, which can be just as good once it's sealed and polished. Use mahogany for the trim, if you want a classic touch.

Singing in a new place can be a little frightening. To get around this, go to the stage when no one else is around. Take some time to walk around and look out towards where the audience will sit. If you can, ask to test out the sound system or a microphone. You may not be able to practice at the venue, such as if you want to perform at a karaoke bar. You can, however, go to the bar and listen to other people perform. Flex not only your vocal cords, but your body as well. In addition to vocal warm-ups, such as humming notes in your vocal range, do some basic yoga poses. Raise your arms, touch your toes, dance around, and loosen up. Staying active can help you forget your worries while also preparing your body for singing.  Any good stretch can help, but don’t go overboard and hurt yourself. To get out excess energy and adrenaline, do some jumping jacks or air punches.  Always loosen your vocal cords before singing. Try choosing a word like “Re” and singing it up and down your vocal range. An important part of building confidence is mastering your posture while singing. Plant your feet firmly on the ground, standing straight. Lower your shoulders, keeping your head level with your audience. This keeps your airways free, allowing you to project your voice. Even the act of standing in a position like this can cause you to feel a little more confident. In addition, your singing voice improves, leading to even more confidence. Slowly breathe in and breathe out. Let the air go all the way down to the bottom of your lungs. You will need all that air when projecting your voice. You can also do this while singing. Focus on taking a deep breath, then using the air to radiate your voice out from the center of your chest.  Deep breathing is calming. By breathing away any nervousness, you can relax, focus on your voice, and gain confidence. To further calm your nerves and help you focus on your performance, spend a few minutes doing a mindful meditation.

All professional singers make mistakes. They don’t let this stop them, however. They take risks when choosing songs and keep going when they slip up during a performance. Most of the time the audience won’t recognize a mistake and won’t remember it after you’re done singing.  Starting out can be scary, but mistakes are normal and help you grow. Remember that mistakes can’t harm you. What matters is how you react to them. Don’t be afraid to take risks with your performances! Choose challenging songs, go for that tough note, or sing in front of an unfamiliar audience. Get lost in the song, not your audience’s thoughts. You’re not a fortune-teller and their thoughts don’t matter when you’re performing. Nail your song’s lyrics and your singing technique no matter what you think of the audience. If you have to, imagine that the audience is cheering for you.  Focus on the lyrics and meaning of the song. Remember why the song is important to you and why you want to share it with the audience.  Even if music isn’t in a language you understand, it can still move you. Express the music’s sound and energy, since this is what will captivate your audience. You don’t even have to look much at the audience. Instead of looking directly at someone’s face, look at their forehead or look past them towards the back of the room so you don’t get distracted. Many professional singers struggle with stage fright. While you may not be able to eliminate it completely, you can lessen it by using tools like cognitive appraisal. Rather than focusing on what could or did go wrong, think about what could or did go well! You can even channel the boost of adrenaline from fear into your performance.
