Perfect padded poker rail (6 Viewers)

here is another pic of the current table. The 1.5 " foam from SPS compresses to 1" when tightly wrapped with vinyl. My rail only overhangs my current table by 1/2" at the most, and that is the foam that overhangs it. I'm a few days away from finishing a new rail, and this new one is 6" wide to have cup holders in the rail. It will overhang the table by 2.5 ".
Too bad about habs logo but awesome looking tables
Hoping to start a build soon likely getting supplies from straight poker supplies too since I’m in southern ON
 
My smaller table has a rail and that’s what I use for when I have cash games with. 8 or fewer players. To be clear I have two hands but one was rendered paralyzed in a stroke I suffered 5 years ago. Here is a photo of my small table. On the hand thing it’s weird in that even though I cannot use it I still can feel everything that happens to it.

Unfortunately, we all have our faults, mine being a Hab fan.:rolleyes: You can always do an ice rink with the Leaf logo...Although it might crash the puter, I could do an ice design with the Leaf Logo :cry: I did one with the Kings Logo.

We need a gif of a power dealer whirling and doing it's thing.
My curiosity got the best of me. I'm buying one. I have a regular that has hand issues and finds it hard to deal...I'll deal the cards for him, he can use this to distribute the cards./

Wtf. I don’t know whether to love it or hate. If anything you gotta buy two and leave at the ends of the table. Those are the people that always flip cards on the deal.
 
I got this when I googled it and I was like LAME

It will deal from ends of oval tables to the other end no problem. I deal my cards into a bean bag stopper and gather them from there. Also burn, flop, turn, and river.

This has got to be one of the funniest/weirdest things Lol. Not only do you use a mechanical grip to deal the cards, but you have beanbag bumpers to catch them. Apparently I’ve been doing it wrong all these years.


Edit: card pitchers and card catchers. Does anyone have a device that peeks them for you?

I really have no choice so this system allows me to deal instead of depending on others which is what I want.

Okay so I missed this post and now feel like a jerk. I’m sorry for my insensitive comments. I assumed you were using the dealing machine and beanbags as a novelty, not out of necessity. I apologize.
 
@joeyshin no problem brother it’s life. This system allows me to be self sufficient. I also bought a shuffle tech to shuffle for me. Gotta love technology.

This is a perfect padded rail? Doesn’t look too bad at all.
 
I made this a few months ago. I used both this padded rail product and carpet underlayment for this, lol. But it actually came out good for pretty cheap. have other tables now with a more legit foam rail, but we still use this one and players like it a lot. The rail is more like a very large version of heavy duty pipe insulation than it is a pool noodle. Its dense foam. But it does need to be stapled down. It is definitely not the same quality as a real padded rail. But it also requires no construction at all beyond stapling it down, so you kind of get what you pay for with this. At the end of the day, it works just fine for resting your arms on and for an edge barrier preventing chips/cards falling off the table.

I bought some "Perfect Padded Rail" back in my early table building days, about 15 years ago. It was junk and I threw it away. Not sure if it was the same product you are asking about, but I what I bought was horrible.

I may have missed it but where did you find the cover for the led strip lights that has the different suits? I’d love to try that over the basic color changing strip I currently have on the table.
 
It’s junk, bought it around 12 years ago, it lasted one game. Don’t waste your money.
Can I ask what happened to it after one game? How did you attach it to the table and what kind of table was it? I was looking at using it on a 60" round 1" thick banquet table so I am interested in the details. Thanks.

Here is a pic of the finished rail with the cup holders in place.

When someone big leaned on it, it broke down and peeled off the top lip of the table. It was trash by the first break. They would have to improve by 10,000 percent for me to try again.
 
I appreciate the info. Thanks.
I've had mine a couple years now. No issues with it. Its a you get what you pay for type of thing. Much less expensive and easier to install than an actual rail. Also much less nice and solid than an actual rail. I will say the guys I play with have never complained about it at all if we do use it.

It’s almost like slitting a pool floaty tube. Maybe a little better foam, but still not durable.

I'd say its significantly denser/high quality foam than a pool noodle. Its more like a high density pipe insulation foam. https://www.amazon.com/Insulation-M...xibility-3-4x2x200cm/dp/B0F1Y8S18X?gQT=1&th=1
