Started a new project. A craps table.
Instead of the standard 5X14, I scaled it down to a 4X10.
Using a bunch of Fiddleback maple scrap that I had tucked away just for a personal project.
Will stain it a reddish brown similar to my poker table.
The fiddleback figure will pop when finished (I hope).
Will be using my Tangiers chips on it when finished.
Let me know your thoughts!

Here is the felt that will eventually go on it.

It actually looks darker in person, kinda like a forest green.

Badass!

No Tangiers logo on felt? I’d take the dice off the no pass bar and no come bar.
 
I had the logo (sword in the diamond) in the bottom left and right corners but, I wanted it to be a little more generic in case I ever have to sell it.
It will good for practicing dice control.

I don't know if you've played craps (or the darkside thereof) but the Don'ts are not paid out if a 12 is rolled, hence why it's visually represented on the layout itself.

Yeah I do, I just felt it was a bit cluttered. Wasn’t sure if all Crap tables had the dice beside that part and they must.

Great craftsmanship!!! Can’t wait to see the finished product.
 
YES. Beautiful so far, thanks for sharing. Absolutely love it.

And good on you for not putting the Big 6/8 on there. I still see that way too often...

Grammatically, it should actually be:
Don't Pass , Bar midnight

as in, don't pass is the bet, bar (don't pay) on midnight.

If you're going to bet the 6/8 why not just place it? You might hit it more than once.
 
Table is ready for chip rail. I have to make it because it is not available in the radius I require.
Use figured maple for the solid lumber to match the fiddleback. The radiused chip rails are going to be a pain to make. At least 4 hours of set up and time to rout them. We'll see how it goes.
The bank box area turned out OK. Wondering if I should drill for the lami's (plastic markers).
