One of the prettier game tables I've seen. I love how solid it is yet the top has a nice light "float" to it. The magnetic rails are really slick, the leather play surface is classy, and the diffused lights look great. I made my own table and wasn't aware of the diffusers at the time and now want to go back and add them- looks awesome. Great build!!
It is, WyrmWood has a bunch of different accessories already made and ready to go; poker chip holders, gaming accessory holders, hobby shelf, player desks, etc. They have a bunch of videos in their process and design.
@@JoGuev7177 Wyrmwood is what made me decide to build a table for my own, and that's what brought me here. As for the magnetic rail, ll other alternatives (French cleat, aluminum rails) have too many disadvantages. But it takes a bit more (expensive) materials. I just hope @make_or_die 's cats won't tear the play surface apart
This is awesome. I have a gaming table design I have been sitting on for two years. It's a bit more complex with power supplies, cup holders, and book shelves. But, you have a point. Just friggin do it man. Just do it. Heard and understood. This is a beautiful table. Thank you for sharing.
@@dustylaperriere9019 nope, they snap into place and then when weight is applied they tilt down slightly and sort of wedge themselves in place. Had all different kinds of beverages on them and nothing has fallen. Plus all the other accessories will most likely be for lighter things like cubes and meeples.
This is definitely the best homemade gaming table I've seen on youtube. I'm hoping to make one myself but lack the tools to do it :/ hopefully someday I'll get there!
Do you have any ideas for more magnetic mods around the outside? Maybe a dice tower that slots into the magnetic slot or a DM/GM screen. Also your cat looks like Adam Driver
This was so fun to watch. I’m venture into the idea of making a table for my game nights and this gave me so many ideas. This is a beautiful table, thank you for sharing.
Great build. Freaking love it. Now just mount a tiny fog machine under the table with the outlet leading to the play area for some extra EXTRA ambience. 😆
"I'm not a metal worker, yet." Right attitude. The table itself is amazing. That magnetic rail is brilliant. I also like that you produce these videos with better style and quality that a certain Gin Butterfly with a million subscribers does. I also like how your woodshop is a hodgepodge of brands and eras of tools, making you relatable to the average hobbyist, unlike Gin Butterflies with nothing but Festool and Sawstop. Subscribed.
"Gin Butterfly" 😂😂😂 I think this is my favorite comment I've ever gotten on this channel! I'll take any comparison to the big dogs, not alone a positive one!
@@make_or_die I was just watching it, thank you for sharing! I see some tables have the ability to snap attachments on the inside as well, I am not so sure that's a good thing, any thoughts?
Congratulations- you’re now one of the best makers on YT with this table, I’m not kidding! Seriously, it’s great and I agree it’s better than any other build. While I personally would have preferred some taper on the legs to pull together the under bevel on the top, it’s a personal preference that does nothing to detract from how badass it is. I really love the led strip, but I’m not sure I can make it work on mine because I’m rabbeting out for a solid surface to go on top, so it can double duty as a dining table. That said now that I’ve seen yours I may have to rethink it to make the LEDs work. They look that great.
Thank you so much! I'm sure the title will be passed along not too far from now, but I cherish it in the moment 😊 I have a gaming room where this table sits exclusively for that purpose so I never had the need for the toppers, however I still had a plan for them. The toppers would work almost like the inverse of how you were describing. The toppers themselves would have notches cut on the underside edges so that they lock into place. They would also be the same size as the table so just like adding another layer on top but could be made out of a thicker material with thinner edges as they almost sit recessed into the table. Not sure if that makes any sense but there's a table sort of like this but without the notches called the phalanx. Check it out!.
I’ve never commented on CZcams but this video prompted an immediate like, subscribe, and comment. Absolutely gorgeous build that I will be using as the model when I attempt my own. Curious if there’s anything you’d do differently?
@@ABramble I feel honored! To be honest I haven't run into anything yet that jumps out like wow I definitely should have done that. The magnetic rail works perfectly, the depth is great, love the LEDs. I've probably played 100 hours at the table so far and am still in love!
I think I have watched every game table video that CZcams will let me find. Yours is the best. I like your “sandwich” for vault side and arm rest and your solution for knockdown legs.
Great video and really clear shots of what you're doing made the process easy to follow. Interested in modifying our current damaged table into a gaming table so constantly looking at others for inspiration. Don't have the tools for milling hardwoods so I was thinking of going down the route of plywood with nicer veneers.
Extremely impressive. My buddy and I just built our first table. Well, we chopped up an exiting table and modified it. It was definitely an experience. It will be unveiled this weekend as a surprise to our players.
@@make_or_die We considered it, but opted to put a TV in the middle with a leaf to cover it up when we didn't want to use the TV. Added some sublimated images on acrylic, with lights underneath on the rails.
Really nice table, really nice project! The best design is the one that accomplishes the need of the user! Not that overpriced tables that throw a bunch of useless addons that the only goal is to milk more wallet of the consumers. congrats on your new table ;)
Thanks! I've seen the tables with the phone chargers and speakers and all that. I thought I'd go simple, get the rail on and make what I need/want for it as I go.
Awesome build and video liked and subed. Huge fan of that flat bar accessory rail. That is just so much easier and more elegant then building tons of complicated mechanisms and drawers and whatnot (which is a mistake I have made). I hope you don't mind me stealing that.
Thank you for the video Also, as a fellow woodworker and guy familiar with production.... - really great design and execution (the woodworking). - excellent content and production quality - top notch! Questions; * if you would have done a topper - any thoughts on how you would have done it? * what are the dimensions? * How thick was the bottom ply for support? is it enough long term? Thanks again for the video.
Glad you enjoyed the video! So if I was going to make a topper I would cut the pieces to sit flush with the edge of the table but also cut a groove on the under side that matches the inside edge of the table, that way they wouldn't move. Dimensions are 70 x 40 inches The base is 3/4 ply. Very sturdy!
This came out great. I love the accessory rail. If you play TTRPGs, a dice holder might be good for each player. Maybe a tablet or laptop stand for games w/ an app component, like Mansions of Madness.
@@make_or_die it happens to the best of us! But when the final product is essentially right in front of you, I bet it's a great feeling! Any idea if you'll post plans?
Nice work! The led work looks amazing. I’m currently spec’ing out the needs for my DnD group and particularly interested in the magnetic rail system you built. Looking forward to that video 😅
Top notch work! I’m planning on building your table myself, it’s the simplest and best looking one I’ve ever seen. Would you be able to link where you got the steel channel and the glue you used on it?
@@make_or_dieI liked and subbed after stumbling upon your video, great work! I look forward to seeing more videos. I think that would be awesome if you could share the plans.
I’m looking make my own table and just haven’t found what kind of table I want. This is the best version I’ve seen in many. Many. Many. Examples. We think alike with the diffusers and led for sure. Do you have rough plans available for purchase?
Hmmm... guess im a bit more of that one of those 50 people watching the video Buuuuuut this is really inspiring to create something like this as well! Many thanks for sharing!
Amazing table and fantastic content. Great inspiration to me as I’m looking at making a table myself. Question though regarding the legs. I have not seen legs attached like that before. Most use mortise and tenon or a brace or both. Do you have any concerns about racking or stability with how the legs are secured?
Most manufactured table legs are secured the same way. I wanted the legs to be removable, mortise and tenon you would glue in I'm assuming. The table is sturdy. My gamers lean against it reaching for pieces, no issues.
Very nice a beautiful table and a awesome video. Now there is one important gaming table feature I would be missing and that's a topper or a way to cover the table to either do something completely different or setup another game on top of a ongoing one. Also might have missed it but did you specify the inner/outer dimension? And also are you happy with the size?
I've been going back and forth on if I want to make a topper. I honestly think 90% of the time I won't be using it so 90% of the time it'll just be taking up space somewhere. The table is perfectly sized at 35 by 70
Noice! I’m making my own feature list for a possible gaming table build. I’d want outlets and USB charging ports. Regarding the magnetic strips… I want my rails to be strong enough to hold a laptop shelf. Wouldn’t magnetic strips have a limited weight capacity? I’m thinking about using universal T-track instead. Thoughts?
Ok so first, the steel is inset into the side of the table. That's important because for heavier items the magnets aren't doing much, the wedge is taking all the load. Think of pulling a middle Jenga block out half way, you'd be surprised how much that can hold especially in the case of a laptop holder that's wedged over a 12 inch span or so. The magnets help get it into position, then the wedge does all the heavy lifting. I'm very confident my table is capable of holding a laptop, but I will admit probably not in the most secure way. Steer away from T-Track. My mind also went there but abandoned it quickly once I realized you have to slide every piece down and out just to slide in a new holder, then reinsert the old one again. No, pulling off and sticking back on. I found this link to be the most helpful though and I think you would too : boardgamegeek.com/thread/1336005/game-table-design-series-game-table-features-rail Scroll down and checkout the "AP Table Wall Mount support". I purchased these and they worked great, but my fellow gamers and I compared the strength of the two, the aesthetics and just the snap of the magnetic rail really swayed us. You might really like that system though. Good Luck!
Gorgeous table. Very similar to the design I intend to build using many of the same ideas. I wonder if you feel like the LEDs are worth it for actual play?
@@make_or_die At least you ended up with a nice LED setup with no "LEDs in the eyes". I hadn't seen that type of continuous ribbon strip before. I see too many LEDs in tables that leave to much line of sight with individual diodes. Good choice.
Board games have become more popular for good reason. Their tables are like $10,000 so that still works out to about 900 tables, seems decently niche still to me but that could just be me.
You could buy a basic cherry table for ~$1000, now though the price has gone up a lot and it's $2000 for a basic one. If you buy a Wenge table or something ye it's 10 grand, or if you go for their Prophecy line it starts at like $20 grand but mass production made their modular version fairly affordable all things considered. They had 7700 backers for the first kickstarter, 6500 for their second one and 2700 for the latest one (my guess is partly because prices have gone up significantly plus current economic climate isn't super great either). Plus general website sales, though that isn't too high I believe they mentioned. The total money spend on kickstarter is more opaque as you just pledge part of the price and then finalize your table, etc in another tool. In the grand scheme of things, yes it is still niche compared to anything actually mainstream of course but it's not exactly tiny.
@@koyko4 no issues with the lights being distracting. I set them to a slow moving gradient of colors and they just make everything pop. They must be diffused properly though which I managed.
