Finally joined the round table master race. Couldn’t decide what I wanted do, but eventually couldn’t avoid the allure of classic green/brown

60” with a 3/4” raised rail finished with Osmo oil to preserve the natural wood color. Scuba suede for the rail covering. Maybe in the future I’ll build a 2nd with the burgundy rail.

After playing on a round I think all my other tables have to go.

I really like those table legs. What material are they, cannot tell from the pic. Do you have a link?

They are metal. Very stable, look great, and a solid price too

Where did you get the template for the round table @JeepologyOffroad? On a scale of 1-10, how difficult would you say a build would be for a first timer? Thinking of adding a smaller round to use for multi-table events at my place and considering trying my hand at a build. I'm not completely useless with tools, but I don't use them daily either.

I didn’t use any template. I just winged it tbh and I don’t think it did it the typical way. It is super easy tho. If not doing a raised rail it would be extremely easy. At least the wood work (and I’m no carpenter by any stretch lol).

As long as you take your time and don’t rush the process I think anyone could do it. Imo the key is the upholstery. That can make or break how nice the final product is.

I’ll also add that this was my first build. Get the right tools for the job and it will be easy.

Can I borrow your tools for like..... A few weeks. Thanks.

If you have a router, a circle jig is super helpful for making clean circles.

You can buy or make one.

I have a small sized one for making recessed speaker cut outs, but they make table sized ones as well.

Or, if you don’t have a router. The old fashioned way is get a long thin piece of wood (yard stick or something) and make a protractor with it. Drill the yard stick into the center point of the board. Measure 1/2 the circumference and drill a 2nd hole at that point on the stick. Use a pencil in the 2nd hole to trace a perfect circle and use a jig saw to cut it.

Basically what I did. I actually used an old spare laminate plank lol. I did use a router tho and highly recommend using one of those

I agree! A router makes a much nicer and cleaner cut. A good spiral cutting bit and make several shallow passes creates a really nice finished cut!

BTW - your table looks fantastic. Amazing work!!

I'm pretty sure this statement will get me kicked off of PCF but I HATE hotstamps. But these are one of the most awesome things I have ever seen! Definite dibs.

Agreed until I saw these. Absolutely unreal.
