10 player poker table, good deal?

[AgentJack]

Thanks. I wanted a poker table and figured I would try and build my own and it came out pretty good. I had to unstaple the rail a few times in certain places to get the wrinkles all out and restaple it but it was worth it. I am in the process of building another table and the only thing left is putting on the vinyl (which is the hardest part).

That is probably THE nicest table I've seen that is a DIY.

Could we possibly get some shots of the underneath? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I will try and get a shot. Here is one that I already had but it does not have the rail on it.

That table is awesome Agent Jack. I want to build one in the near future, I was wondering if you'd post your plans or just an approximate materials/cost list.
Thanks

I am acutally working on a page that shows most of the construction. I am working on a table right now and just have to put the vinyl on the rail (the foam is already done).

Do you have a padding under the material?

[AgentJack]

Yes there is padding under the material.

It is far from done, but this is going to be a tutorial on how to make a table.

Just an FYI, you might want to make a home poker table 4'x6'. The standard long skinny tables are for games where you have a pro dealer. If you are on the end of the table, it is murder to deal to the other end. Speed fabric from Kardwell is nice because it allows cards to slide and is spill resistant!

The guy that hosts my regular game, just bought two of those tables. I think they are reasonable quality; very good for the price though. They are sturdy enough, the padding and felt are very nice and seem durable.

I must say that I think an 84" table is to cramped for 10 players; why cant they just use the whole peice of plywood and go 96"?

On our 8' table we just rotate the deal amongst the 2 or 4 players seated closest to the center. Everyone else is a shuffler.
