Custom cloths (2 Viewers)

[T_Chan]

At this time I have enough to print about 100 tables so it should last several more months, maybe even to the end of the year with my current supply. That being said, I've probably printed about a dozen cloths in the last month which is a bit higher than normal.

 

[rocollis]

I've been thinking for about two weeks now that I should order one of these. I guess now is the time!

 

[krafticus]

Yup, might have to get my design done and worked sooner than later....

The news is not good regarding continued supply of the gaming suede. I am being asked to purchase 3,000 yards at a time.

Snap call.

That's crazy, literally a thousand tables can be done on that. How many tables do you average a year? 150-175?

My company gets the fork in that way a lot when it comes to high end cell phones. Big order or no play time.

And not all of my tables use a custom cloth, there's still orders with suited speed cloth. 3k yards would probably last me 5+ years.

Share order with another builder?

I wonder if this is their minimum order and they are just passing it on to you, since they don't want to carry it anymore

Maybe if that’s the case and you can speak to them and get their supplier name, contact them directly and find out if there is another reseller?

I wasn't planning to do my table builds until the summer, but I may have to do my dimension-ing and get my cloths ordered ASAP.

Thanks for the notice!!!

I'm still talking with the supplier to figure out some sort of compromise, but getting shot down left and right.

They also increased their prices by 25%...

You talking to your old supplier or the manufacturer?

Good idea. Can you bypass the supplier and go straight to the source?

 

[T_Chan]

This is speaking with my supplier, they won't give up the information of the manufacturer.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Maybe you could call up YAT and see if they are willing to do joint buy? Or maybe they can source it for you?

We still have some of the current gaming suede in stock, but in the meantime we're trying different fabrics.

This one is quite fuzzy on one side which feels nice but the cards don't slide as well. The other side (printed below) has a much more plastic feel, reminds me of SSC. Still waterproof which is important.

Throw me a line a have a supplier I might share with you. He has both suited speedcloth and gaming suede.

 

[T_Chan]

Will do. The only issue is that many supplier has gaming suede but many different types. I've encountered 7 different types which are all different. I'd like to grab a sample of it though to see how it compares.

Cheers.

I'm guessing we'll see these new felts at the tournament next Friday?

 

[T_Chan]

The new rental felts, yes. Only have 4 to roll out at the moment, still replacing old felts slowly but surely. The rest will have SSC or old misprinted custom cloths.

Awsome layout...reminds me of the HFCC (Hungry Frog) table.

 

[T_Chan]

I probably have a new fabric lined up for when my current supply runs out, which is probably in about another month or two.

I'll have more info tomorrow.

Cards fly so smooooth on this felt

You could always cover them up with a fitted bedsheet when they're not in use....
