I’m with you, I always laugh at this recommendation. I mean I’m sure my chanman comment was equally as unhelpful. But not only do you need tools, woodworking know how and the like, it takes a lot of time to build a nice looking table.Build 0ne???he might want to spend the 5 hr drive to buy one. He might have the 5-10 hrs in building one. ...Not everyone is a woodworker....
Then you can buy custom cloth? Is it required?
Build two, sell one for a profit.
Funny this is exactly what I did. And unsurprisingly it hasn't panned out lol.For someone to be building a table for the first time, it's unlikely that they'll be recouping much more than material costs if they build and sell a 2nd table. Factor in time spent, and it's probably a losing proposition.
That’s a nice looking first table @Jackypoo if I lived closer I might take you up on it.It sounds like you're gonna go down the route of building your own which I fully support but in the off chance you're interested in my table here it is.
