Might be worth calling local upholstery companies in your area.

Thank you!

I’m thinking of maybe taking the easy path and just order https://pokershop.de/Foam-pad-for-poker-table-7-mm

It’s just annoying that they don’t specify what it is. I’ve even mailed them.. their response was that they ”dont know but its good”

Yeah, contacted 3 that I could find. None of them have single sheet/roll wide or long enough for a poker table in one continuous sheet

Might be less hassle to order from the German site..
I’m not sure what type of business you called precisely but I was able to get stuff from a commercial upholsterer, through my friend who owns a restaurant and used them for all his custom seating and booths. They’ll have or be able to order virtually anything that is made, but you might not hit their minimum order quantity.

It's hard to tell from the photo whether it is open or closed cell. Either way, it will probably be good for table building.

Just note that they sell by the 1/2m unit (if you need 2m, you need to order qty 4 )

Yeah I noted that, thanks

I found this Latvian website today that also have stuff, including legs that I’ve been struggling to source as well.

Their sheet is 5mm, but maybe thats ok.
Their rail foam is not big enough to be able to do it all from 1 piece.. not a problem for the rail maybe? I figured for the play surface having multiple pieces could cause issues down the line?

WDYT, will it work out fine?

They also have 2 vinyls to choose from:
440g/m2
530g/m2

I’m thinking 530g is probably the one closer to 1mm and the best to go for. 440 is probably thinner?

I've built 2 tables using legs removed from used Ikea tables. It seems silly to buy a table just for the legs, but the cost savings is significant.
