Waiting List
Hello fellow players! My friend and I are building 2 identical tables and almost have the first one completed (his table) but I would like to make small changes when it comes to my table and would like some advice from anyone who has made their own table before and can help point me in the right direction when it comes to foam padding that will be placed on the outer rail and wrapped in leather. Although it is not included in the picture, the foam he chose to go with felt to me like it had too much give when compressed and I fear that players will be feeling the edges of hard wood against their forearms after 20 minutes of game time. While we are discussing foam, it reminds me that the padding we used under the playing surface, although it is good enough and has a decent bounce for the chips and slight give to make card pick up easy, I'm curious if there is a padding more specific for this purpose, or commonly used in casino tables? Does anyone recommend a specific felt for the playing surface? I will say that his table is good and the materials used serve their purpose well enough, but when we construct my table next... I want it to have a bit more WOW factor to it finally, there will be LED lights ran in the 3/4" gap between the cushion rail and race track. Any LED suggestions? Any at all? Run with it! I'm open for design ideas/Comments on the table as a whole, and not limiting to my questions
