Those who know me are generally aware of my elite craftsmanship when it comes to making poker tables. Ever since the first one I constructed in 2004 and published the “How To Build a Poker Table” plans on Poker.com, I have been known to throw the odd table together. After that first one, I started building poker tables (to sell) with an old workmate of mine Jason, who continues to build poker tables under the Card Shark brand.

Anyway, I recently completed a special poker table for my sister for Christmas. This one has some nice patterned vinyl for the padded arm rail and hot pink playing surface. It sits on Ikea legs (with built-in storage) and some LED lighting. I took a few photos during the build process and am still considering whether to re-publish the “plans” with the all-new methods.

Here is a photo of the end result.

Ok so my first post is a bit off topic to what I promised, but hey, it’s my blog and I can do whatever I want, I’m an adult.
