Anyone browsing or lurking here make poker tables?

Wanna make a little money off of some of your scraps?

I'm looking to commission someone to build me a 2' x 3' poker "table top" to sit on my table.

Nothing too fancy, just a board, felt (green preferred) and padding. No rails, cup holders, legs, etc needed. A padded felted rectangle, is all. Maybe slightly rounded corners would be the biggest request.

The wife and I play heads up NLHE (and other card games) quite often and until we buy our house this summer and we can leave the good table set up all the time, we play on the coffee table.

It would be really cool, to just reach behind the couch and pull out the mini table when we feel like pushing a few chips and cards around.

Any takers, contact me at brett"at"jblo25.com with a quote, with shipping to zip 92120

Thank you!

Good idea, i also play poker with the wife and have been thinking about building one of these. I have a nice solid wood poker table but would love something portable that we could take outside on the deck.

Suggestion you can go to the lumber store and get a 1/4 piece of plywood
I know Home Depot will cut it for you. Get some quilting batting and some felt and staple it on the plywood.

I bought a bean-bag lap table at target for $10, ran next door to joann's and picked up some scrap moleskin and some foam... add a little glue and some staples... it's perfect for solitare, war or go-fish w/ my daughter, shuffling your chips, or a little heads-up hold-em or rummy w/ the wifey.

Thanks for the advice, I know I could buy the stuff I need to do this and do it easily...

But I thought someone here might have some scraps that they might want to sell, and we would both be happy.

I have lots of scraps but I think it would be to heavy for what you are looking for and shipping would be outrageous..... Especially from wisconsin here is a link to my 3 tables I have built so far

It may be bigger than you need, but Target has one of those octagonal padded tops that fold into quarters, for $35 (seen at $39.95 and $49.95 at other chain stores and web sites) It's a 42" octangonal top, but I think you can leave it folded in half and just use it at an approximate 21x42 size (a little like a small blackjack layout.) Unfortunately it has the obligatory chiptray and cupholder that other similar layouts like this have. The one at Target is under the Cardinale branding, though this particular top is sold under a variety of brandings.

If you see the Michael Graves poker chip sets at your local store, grab all you can at 9.98 a set. I found 2 sets hitting 4 stores last night. Don't know if I"ll do anything with them or if they're going to become Christmas presents, but I couldn't turn them down at that price. BTW that rack may hold 30 of the included plastic chips per slot, but they will only hold 25 normal chips (actually 26 but that makes counting difficult). So if you're going to use real chips, with it, plan on it being a 200 chip rack instead of 240.

Why does it say "failed to post" when it actually does?

The next one is my actual response, lol.

The tables are beautiful! I hope to have the space to do that soon.

Might you be interested in selling me just some padding and felt scraps then? That should not cost much to ship, I'll even give you my companies FedEx number for 3 day air. Stuff it in a box or tube and away it goes.

Not that I'm in a hurry, just that we have an air account.

That way I can just go and buy a board locally and have it cut to match the size of the scrap material.
