Im calling this a project table.......Dont care if it looks good or bad 
Im thinking about just putting a polyester cloth from jo-anns on it, I have a cloth from Rye Park but dont think I want to put it on a warped table because Im anal like that.......... | A warped table! Firewood I say. Start over you lazy bum. With that many t-nuts, you'll never know when it is finished. |

With that you would really have yourself a PAD (Poker After Dark) table...  |

just picked up the cloth from Jo-Anns. Its a polyester/spandex blend. In my opinion, it is very nice. Cards glide with ease and it wont pill. Feels very soft to the touch and looks casino quality......On sale for $7.49 a yard, cant beat that.. deceided on a burgandy/red color... |

I dunno, but for a 'project' table, I'd say it's looking pretty good so far.
I'm gonna hazard a guess that you're going to be very pleased with the final product.
As you've seen already, even if the playsurface ply is less than perfect, the attachment to the rail will help true it up a bit. And even though I know you're not looking to spend an arm and a leg on this project (and since you got the first batch of ply for free anyway), if you attach a sub-base it'll help striaghten things out further.
You might simply be 40 or so dollars away from a perfectly straight and true playsurface. |
