Are you a fan of hosting poker nights with your friends, but don’t have a dedicated poker table? Fear not!
With a little bit of creativity and some DIY skills, you can easily turn your round table into a fully functional poker table. Here’s how:
1. Start with a round table that is at least 36 inches in diameter. This will provide enough space for up to six players.
2. Measure the circumference of the table and add 12 inches to determine the size of the felt you’ll need. For example, if your table has a circumference of 100 inches, you’ll need felt that is 112 inches long.
3. Purchase poker felt in the color and design of your choice from a local craft store or online retailer. You may also want to purchase foam padding to place underneath the felt for added comfort.
4. Lay out the felt on a flat surface and place the foam padding on top, trimming any excess with scissors.
5. Center the felt and padding on top of your round table, making sure it is completely smooth and wrinkle-free.
6. Use a staple gun to secure the edges of the felt to the underside of the table, pulling it tight as you go.
7. Cut out holes for cup holders using an X-acto knife or circular saw drill bit. Cup holders can be purchased online or at most home improvement stores.
8. If desired, add decorative elements such as vinyl decals or custom graphics to personalize your new poker table.
9. Finally, add some comfortable chairs around your new poker table and invite some friends over for a night of fun!
With these simple steps, you can transform any round table into a professional-grade poker surface that will impress even the most serious card players. So gather up your chips and cards and get ready for endless hours of entertainment at your new poker table!
