X3WD - Making a Poker Table
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 08. 2024
- This was my first time attempting to make a poker table. While the concept is very straightforward, one major obstacle I had to overcome was upholstery. Since I don't do upholstery as often, I definitely was a bit nervous starting this project. Overall the woodworking part of this build was easy enough with a circle cutting jig along with some half-lap joinery for the table base.
All of the foam, vinyl, and speed cloth were purchased from www.buildyourownpokertables.com.
MATERIALS USED:
3/4" Oak Plywood
1/2" pine plywood x 2
4x4x8 Douglas Fir post x 3
2x4x8 kiln-dried x 2
TOOLS USED:
Kreg Pocket Hole Jig
Kreg 24" Rip Cut Circular Saw Guide
Irwin Quick-Grip Clamps
Dewalt DW715 Miter saw
Ridgid 5" Orbital Sander
Ridgid Router
Ridgid Impact Driver
Ridgid Cordless Circular Saw
Ridgid Cordless Octane Jigsaw
RZ M1 Mask

Thanks everyone. If you have any questions please comment below and I’ll try to answer them as quickly as possible. Sorry for the delay in getting back to some of you.
looking into building a racetrack poker table. where did you get your felt for the table? I looked at amazon and they have one for 25
I see where you bought it now
Nice table! But I didn’t see how you attached legs to the table
Hey what state are u in? How much to build me one
What kind of rotor bit are you using to clean up those edges/cut out the half circles?
only thing i'd recommend is that when you do the rail upholstery, lay it down like you had it but don't cut out the middle. staple it to the outside edge first THEN cut out the middle and staple the inside edge. it's easier to see where wrinkles are before it's all stapled to the wood and you can make adjustments easier as well. also cut longer thinner strips along the inside curve of the rail. it helps with wrinkles. otherwise it's a great looking table.
I love the inlaid lighting. Looks just like a WPT table.
I really like this table great job! My only suggestion would be to add a thin plexiglass diffuser infront of the LEDs to give it a cleaner glow. But great work!
Great idea!
This is badass, I wish I had a table like this, or had the talent to build one.
Thank you! It was my first time building one. It's intimidating at first, but just take your time and you'll get there.
That’s beautiful
Dude well done! I'm thinking about using magnets to attach/detach my top to the base for easier detachment
great build man!!!
Very much enjoyed the video! Going to build my own now! Thank you sir!
Really nice job on the table. I think I know the guy you made this for.
Thank you Tony! Cool.
Loved this video
Amazing job man
Great job 👌 it's very beautifull
Thanks a lot 😊
what did you learned? with this project? and how many % are you happy with it?
Nice table!!
You wrapped that rail the hardest way possible.
Don’t leave us hanging! What would a better method?
Absolutely amazing
excelente trabajo. 👋
Muchas Gracias!
I have a wooden octagon poker table but no table to cushion chips on the wood top. I want to make a 36" diameter top covered in foam and speed cloth. Non skid on bottom. Could you do a video on how to make it???
Somebody teach this man how to do the Oklahoma Planer!
What is the Oklahoma planer? I searched CZcams and couldn't find anything relevant
@@samueldeter9735 the Oklahoma planer is when you are needing to cut a section out for joinery, but you have no tools so you take a circular saw and with it running, move it side to side to hog out all the chunks.
It would have worked at the 9:00 minute mark.
@@claythomas9467 I got ya...I didn't know it was called that...is there a good way to do it when the dado is too wide for the circ saw plate? (ie if he was cutting out an 8 inch section)
Hello so i like the poker table it looks so nice if I order one how much would you charge please let me know I am interested.
Very nice job
Thanks Scott!!
El paño de la mesa de que tipo es?)
What are the exact specifications for each piece? Are there any CAD drawings we can have a look at?
That's my problem with CZcams nowadays, its all flex. Look at what I can do, but I don't explain it
@@Ufos4dahoes you can probably figure it out if you tried
So Sicc!! You have skills!! Awesome
I'm wondering if I can have a few more details on the upholstery on the riser and 3 inch arm wrest I'm building my own and wondering those steps a little more concise. Do you have the foam a little bigger so it can wrap around?
Curious what air compressor you use in this build. Can you provide the details?
I was using a 21 Gallon 2.5 HP 125 PSI Cast Iron Central Pneumatic Air compressor from Harbor Freight which I believe has been discontinued. Fortress and Mcgraw brands took it's place now. I think the CFM is something like 4 or 5.
Can u send the project file?
Hey man im trying to build this exact thing can you dm me videos how it looks now,thers steps that confuses me
Nicolas Gonzalez hey Nicholas. It’s now at the owners house so I can’t do a walk around, but I still have the sketch up model. I can send an animation of how it’s out together if that’ll help?
X3 Workshop Designs I would love to know more. I’m sorta confused on certain steps with the upholstery/lights and how the layers are put together.
Can you send build plans and material list???
Arron Zappone I only have a sketch up file. Materials used are listed under the description.
Thanks buddy .. you inspired me to build one and we are felting as we speak !!
But if you would like to upload your sketch up , I would like to see what you did different
Did you attach the legs to the table, or is it just sitting on there so it can be moved easily? If attached, how? (Are they screwed through the base into the legs, pocket holed,....?)
I used L brackets that attached to the bottom of the table and skirt of the table base. 4 total.
@@X3WorkshopDesigns Thank you!!
Wow. Is your LED connected to a battery or can one use AC ?
This one that I installed uses batteries. I went with a cleaner look and bypassed using an outlet for the leds.
How did you mount your trim router to the wood jig you made??
I used the plastic piece the router comes with and used the screw holes to align it to a piece of wood. From there I just recessed the screws so they sit just below the surface of the wood.
Please get back to me on how you were able to overlap the rail & riser after you had cut them from the same board. I’m having issues not understanding how that’s possible
The rail and riser are not cut from the same board. The 3” wide rail is from one plywood sheet. The middle of that is used for the center playing surface and border. The 2” wide riser is cut from a different sheet of plywood, and the center remaining piece is what I used as the bottom of the table top. So two sheets of plywood are used for the whole table top build. Hopefully that clears it up.
So plywood A, you cut the 3” rail, the racetrack, & the playing field
And for plywood B, you cut the 2” riser, and then were left with the base?
@@sethesham6223 sorry. I’m still half asleep. No coffee yet. From the 3/4” plywood, I cut the bottom rail & used the center for the playing surface & racetrack. That’s it for that. Now, from 1 sheet of the 1/2” plywood (A) I cut the 2” riser and the middle I used as the bottom support for the whole table top. The other 1/2” sheet of plywood (B) I cut the 3” top rail and the middle is just scrap leftover. Once assembled from the bottom up you have 1/2” plywood bottom (A) left from the 2” wide riser, next the 3/4” racetrack, then the 2” wide riser from the 1/2” plywood (A) followed by the 3” wide top rail; plywood (B). Your led lights will go on the inside underneath the 3” top rail along the 2” wide riser.
@@X3WorkshopDesigns okay thank you! I’ll figure that all out once I’m done working, just 1 more question, where did you get your foam at?
@@sethesham6223 the links to all the materials I used are in the description.
Awesome video!. I’m curious though do you like the LED lights on when playing or they just for show?
If the room is a bit dark, they add a good ambience. The client loved it and likes it with the lights on. Depending on the kit you purchase, there's different variations of light patterns or just solid colors.
Como lleva felete
Great job, I cant see how did you attach the 3" top rail to the table? Did you use brackets or ??
Ackshon Thing 1” wood screws screwed from the underside. I stapled the fabric to the 3” top rail, then I put the 2” rail over that and screwed it down sandwiching the fabric and hiding the staples. Hopefully that makes sense.
did you get overspray on your camera lens?
None at all. I usually have my camera at a distance and zoom in for tighter shots.
Do you have any drawings or cut sheet?
Nice job, but man I cringed when you were using the chisel
One slip and it was going through your wrist
It does look like that right? Thats another reason I was lifting my wrist upwards. I was mindful and careful when using it. It's difficult to explain but it's a controlled pushing movement when chiseling out the small pieces.
Shut up and take my money 😄👍 good job!
good job! I missed the measurements ...
I used the full sheet of plywood so 4' wide and 8' long.
Hey, so what’s the final length and width of this table (once it’s all together and finished and you needed to measure it to fit in a van or something)? Please :)
It's the size of the plywood sheet. 4' wide by 8' long. Its two prices, the entire leg assembly and the table top.. I used my truck bed to transport it to its final destination. The legs were then screwed together with the table top once it was in the room it was going to live in. Thanks.
Can you add the supplies ill need so i dont over purchase or purchase and not have proper tools?
Everything is in the description. Thanks.
What are the dimensions of the table? I'm especially interested in the length, width, and radius of the semicircle at the ends?
It's a full 4'x8' sheet of plywood. The semicircles are just measure in 2" and 3" from the edge.
Are the leds battery operated? I didn’t see any wire ran?
yes. they are battery operated.
Is it possible to get the dimensions of the base you built?
Yeah. Let me see if I can find them when I get home and post them for you.
what kind of cloth material you use? I know that tables have usually very smooth, but a tiny bit soft table to easily slide, pick up, flip the cards and at the same time not too soft so that cards easily move without bending (possibly rubber layer below the cloth?)
high density foam, probably 1/4 inch
Hey Martin. Sorry for the late reply. The materials were purchased from buildyourownpokertables.com. it's in the description. Thanks.
what led lights did you use where did you get them
Hey Eric. The led lights were purchased through Amazon. They had the option to plug in the battery pack or use a 120 outlet. Thanks.
Are the legs 4x4 and do you find that they get in the way as far as leg room at all?
Yes. I used 4x4 legs. I found that there was plenty of leg room and didn't hinder anyone's ability to sit at the table.
@@X3WorkshopDesigns thanks for the response. I'm going to do the same on mine.
Hey man me and my buddy are building one just like this just wanted to know alil more details on what kind of screw and where u put them at so they can hold together
Javier Ramirez I prefer torx wood screws. I used 1” #8 I think.
How do you space the cup holders out evenly?
That depends on how many you do and the layout. I may make another video explaining how I came up with this spacing since this is a question that comes up alot. Thank you.
@@X3WorkshopDesigns it will be an 8ft table with 10 cups
take diameter of the track, and divide by however many people it will seat. Thats how far apart you will space the cup holders.
How thick is your plywood? 3/8 inch or more?
All the info is in the description.
It's missing one thing. One thing that was make or break. Diffusers for the LEDs. It's not trash but it looks china cheapo quality, which is a shame because we can see the effort that was put in.
Le cuir est vraiment pas bien fait
You skipped a few steps.
How much did you charge for this? This is an amazing table
What were the measurements you used
Or if you can just send me the 3d animation that would work please
Never showed how he put the lights in or even what kind of lights they were or when to install them. Come on man!
They were just some made in China led color changing lights from Amazon. They have tons of brands and prices. Just choose whichever one will fit your specific needs.
