Where was the table done? Did I miss that part?

I don't think I mentioned it...local guy here in Chicago. He's retired and builds them out of his garage. Just so happens he's literally 3 miles down the street from me.

He does awesome work. I spent a little more on some upgrades like the legs, chip tray and chip slide. I bought them, dropped em off and then he only charged me installation. He is very fairly priced and a great guy. I've heard several other PCFers have used him. Doesn't ship though so you'd have to pick it up. He's by O'Hare Int'l Airport.

Here's a link to his FB: https://m.facebook.com/Table-Image-Poker-Tables-of-Chicago-194836141366/

I just took tons of pr0n and will be posting soon, along with a breakdown of everything and where I got it in case anyone wants to reference down the line.
 
Some pics are dupes (flash vs no flash). Also just got word (and pics) that my Gassers are shipping tomorrow (from Vegas) and I'll have em Tuesday. Before/after photos also attached. The red are the before (they're from Mandalay Bay) and the black are after -- reupholstered and powder coating applied to legs.

Hahahaha. Hit me up if you're ever in Chicago if you wanna check em out in person. It's funny, I'm in a condo (single and no kids so no need for a house) so the table will take up a good chunk of my living room when I have it set up.

And I'm thinking about re-doing the $2 in DG Tiger...but we'll see...

Everyone below was an absolute pleasure to work with and I will definitely go back to them if I have any more poker chip/table/accessory needs in the future!

Chip, Table, Button and Card Cut Design

- J5

Dealer Buttons & Card Cuts:

- Alain-Pierre Forsans @ http://www.pokerchipsdesign.com

Chips

- Classic Poker Chips

Table

- Builder: Jerry @ https://m.facebook.com/Table-Image-Poker-Tables-of-Chicago-194836141366/. Local to Chicago area (by O'Hare / Harlem & Higgins). Does not ship so you have to pick up but you can go check out some of his in-process tables in action. He'll work with you/send you pics along the way to see exactly what you want. I met with him a few times throughout the process.

- Jerry's table price after my upgrades (chip tray, drop boxes, cup holders in rail, arc for dealer cutout, etc.): $705 + my additional costs below. Jerry offered to provide some of these (chip tray, rake slide, etc.) but I wanted to go balls out with upgraded materials :)

- Poker suede (felt): $256 via http://www.pimpmytable.net -- per Jerry's recommendation since he'd worked with him in the past. Felt is amazing and it's all I'll get from now on over the suited speed cloth.

- Polished aluminum slim style poker drop slide: $180 via www.916pokerdepot.com

- Aluminum chip tray: $235 including lock & key via www.916pokerdepot.com

- Money paddle: $15 via Amazon

- Legs: Hafele brand: $160 for the set via www.rockler.com. These are the foldable kind and work perfectly even though they fold inward in an X position under the table. I was worried they'd be in the way of the toke boxes but they're not. Even if they were, you could just remove the boxes when storing, which I would prob do anyway. They also sell this same style as non-folding legs for $80 for the set -- I used on my previous table but def prefer the folding version. Both options (folding vs not) have adjustable feet in case your floor is uneven. I love em and prefer the look of them over the standard folding legs.

Total table costs: $1,600-$1,700 (including J5 design fees + costs for dealer buttons and card cuts)


Chairs

- Greg at http://casinoproductsworldwide.com / gpeez@cox.net. He gave me his ok to list his email. Chairs were from their used inventory and were originally red. He reupholstered and added powder coating to legs for $59/chair = $531. That was for 9 chairs and then he threw in a 10th chair for free so technically $53/chair. It was $35 to put them on a pallet/pack them so $566 total. Shipping from Vegas to Chicago via Conway Freight was $233 for 4-day transit.

- He gets lots of chairs and also quite a few poker tables...just FYI in case you're looking for some!

Total Gasser chair costs: $799 (+ another $100 for my dealer chair, from Amazon)
 
My favorite $2 chip ever. Awesome work on the chairs, too.

And I'm thinking about re-doing the $2 in DG Tiger...but we'll see...

This makes me sad and happy at the same time. No doubt the tiger $2 will be awesome, but if that means the originals will see less play.... then I dunno. Or you could just sell them to me. :cool:
 
Looks amazing and I can't believe your in my neighborhood. Shoot me some information about the game via PM. There are several PCF members that play locally already and it would be great to have another to add to that list.

I think I finalized the new $2...same design as current $2 but new colors and worked the Tiger into a hundo...the colors on the hundo remind me of the $5k WSOP chip.
