I have an old dining room table that I want to repurpose as a poker table. The table is 42" wide and it has two leaves/extensions to adjust the length of the table, 52" , 70" or 88" in length. It also has these faux-leather pads that fit on top (photo below is an example from the internet). If I were to cover these in suited speedcloth it would make a great playing surface, just the right amount of cushion.
I'd like to build a cushioned rail for the 70" and 88" size. So my question is this: Is there a way for me to temporarily secure the speedcloth down on the top of the table? If I drape the cloth over the faux-leather topper, then put the rail over it, will the pressure from the rail keep the cloth from moving around? Or is something like velcro a better idea?
I'm trying to avoid having to build two or three different playing surfaces. I don't have a ton of room for storage, so this seems like a good solution for having multiple sized tables without taking up all the space. I'd rather just build the rails and keep the speedcloth rolled up in a box until I need to use it.
I hope I'm making sense. Any feedback is appreciated.
