WTB custom table

jamby · #1 (**permalink**) 05-30-2006, 02:52 PM

I'm interested in having a custom poker table designed and built for me. However, I don't want to deal with shipping.

If you're in the Chicago area and build custom poker tables I'd like to hear from you and see what you have done in the past.

Regards,

I do make tables, would be interested on how you want it to look. You can PM me and we can talk about the details. I live at the very southern tip of Wisconsin, your just a hop skip and a jump away...

Here is a picture of a Blackjack table I did.

Thanks for the quick responses, guys.

I want something unique. Thought that I wanted a racetrack, but played on one recently and noticed that because the felt and track weren't flush my cards kept getting stuck when dealt. Do like the look though. I want a somewhat unusual felt and would like to see color/fabric samples. Blue/tan is a favorite color combination.

As to the base. Not sure if I want it to be foldable or not. Would like to hear pros and cons.

Also not sure at all what kind of money or range of prices we're talking about here. Would like to find out that too.

I'm not in a huge hurry as I'm doing remodeling now to my upstairs, which will house the new card room.

Happy chipping,
jamby

It would probably be worth paying the $150-200 in build costs, just to get to visit, and see your collection at this point.

Have whoever makes your table build it so that the felt playing area is flush with the racetrack.

No lip = better.

I would hate to see the custom table that costs $150-$200 in materials. Materials would not be quality for those prices but it would be worth it to get a peek at Jamby's collection.

Good luck on the table Jamby and if I can help with any questions let me know.

Hey Boon,

That was my first time playing with a racetrack. I think it was at the Alladdin. I was bummed, but it sure looked good. I'm glad to hear it's maybe not a common problem.
