Sounds nice dude. Make sure to take a pic when you are finished.
The tables that guy makes are pretty damn sweet, I'll agree. Will probably buy one for my house next year. As for now I'm just using one of those cheap 4 fold hexagonal ones that I won in my first holdem tourney ever.

I'd say get a hot glue gun for the middle of the table, that way you don't have staples over the playing surface. If you have access to something where you can bend would you could use that as a liner around the table so the staples don't show. Most people don't have the steam equipment for bending wood, you could also go to a hardware store and pick up something like pvc pipe and use that. Go to an arts and crafts store and pick something up to line and pad it with. If you wanted to go really in depth with it, you could pick up insulation sheets for padding underneath the cloth.
Anywho, those are my ideas. Helped a buddy build a table back in Florida. Good luck with it, it takes a long time and it's worth it. |

You definitely want some sort of padding for underneath the cloth/felt.
If I wasn't so darned lazy I'd make one too.

Ooop, guess I should have been a bit more clear: the staples are going on the bottom of the table
![]() I definitely could go more indepth with it, but I'm really just quickly throwing these together for my poker night next week. I'm not really concerned about the padding or anything (although it would help for riffling chips). These are just temporary tables for the monthly poker night. I'm hoping that by June or so, I'll be getting one of the tables from that guy in Windsor that I mentioned. I'll probably keep the table tops around after that though. I've got a (almost) 4-month old that is going to need a train set in a few years ![]() |

Hey you having another home game, on or around the 10th of Feb.?
I have a friend's hockey tourney in Ottawa Hull on the 10th of Feb., and we're thinking of taking a little road trip to Toronto, if all goes as planned. Maybe I'll stop by and see you and Nikita, would be nice. ![]() P.S.: that's if I don't lose my money at the hotel which I'm staying at lol

Our home game this month is set for the 7th, we haven't set a date for February yet though. The 10th is a possibility, but we get more people to show up if it's set for a Saturday. This will probably be decided during our home game this week. Or Rob might have already decided on a date (he'll likely respond later, he's not home at the moment, I sent him out shopping).
You are definitely welcome plus there is a lot of fishies at our home game. We've got at least two calling stations, one guy who thinks it's all luck, another who plays her gut feelings (if she shows up, she's rather flakey too). It was fairly easy money for Rob and I during the first home game we held. Just be warned though, London is a two hour drive from Toronto, so I don't know if you want to put that much time on the road just to get to our place. |

Well if anything I can't be there on the 10th to the 12th of Feb. Don't worry bout fixing your poker schedule around my time. If I do end up coming near London maybe I'll email you guys and we can have lunch somewhere, ok? That will be kewl.
