Re-felt and re-foam (1 Viewer)

[dirty moose]

Hey guys,

I have a poker table that I'd like to re felt and re foam. The foam was glued and and the felt stapled. A ton of staples....

I'm wondering what the best way to re do both of them?

The table also has a racetrack around it so the center comes off with out any screws. I'm wondering if just flipping the center over is an option?

Any suggestions would be great.

Is cutting a new center an option?

Only issue I see with using the same piece is the height. If you have foam and felt down, flipping it over can add 1/4" of height, and a flush play surface (to the racetrack) is important to functionality.

It really depends how the table is assembled. Every table is different so it's hard to say without seeing photos or more description of how is put together.

Otherwise the best thing to do is to remove the felt and foam completely and replace them. Find a good staple remover and prepare your fingers for some punishment.

Needle nose pliers and an old 1/4" chisel are my stable removal tools of choice.

I actually just removed my old felt and added foam to a custom table I bought off someone really cheap. My felt came in just waiting for some help to install the felt on the table. I had to remove all the staples. I sprayed adhesive on my table to attach the foam and it didn't sit well so gonna try one more time. Here are a pic of the table with foam and the felt
