@PapiBlanco Is it possible to remove the rails and felt only like the second picture? Is this easy to do?
Great job! How did you take the fold out? Does the table still fold?Right at $275 all in on this conversion, I'm happy with it, ended up taking the fold out so we didn't have a crease in the middle.

Does the table still fold?
To rephrase, the fold crease in the fabric is gone but will the table fold up? If I’m dumb for not fully understanding I apologize lol
@Tommy et moderators?Never thought about asking when I made this thread. Request for sticky for easier access to new members?
Great job. I'm trying to choose between 3/10" HD foam (YAT is out of the 1/4") and1/4" Ensolite. What kind of adhesive did you use with your Ensolite?Complete refurb completed.
- Gold Speed Cloth (YAT)
- Refoamed with 1/4" Ensolite (Foam By Mail)
- Deeper Cup Holders (here)
- 3' piano hinge replacement (here). I feel it makes a big difference with stability.
Pretty happy with the fold alignment since I did it all solo.
It was a coin flip between the gold and bronze, but happy with the way this color turned out. I like the slightly brighter color but not overpowering. Midnight blue would have also been in the running if it was in stock.
Foam - I had originally purchased the YAT foam sample kit. Didn't want to do Volara as it was too hard for my tastes, and the issues with permanent indentation made it a no go. Sew foam wasn't bad, a touch soft. HD foam was going to be my choice, but when I went to purchase both the 1/3" and 1/4" were out of stock. Based on some of the recommendations on here I decided to try the 1/4" Ensolite. Incredibly happy with the way it feels. It's on the firmer side, but not too firm. I can stack 40 48mm chips with zero wobble, and still get a fingertip under the cards for card peek.
Highly recommend the 1/4" Ensolite if you're going to redo the foam.
I want to upgrade mine also - but how have you and others managed the table legs underneath being in the way? Or is that not an issue?- Deeper Cup Holders
I used a pipe cutter at 4 locations to shorten it where the deeper cupholders will go. Maybe an inch on each side.I want to upgrade mine also - but how have you and others managed the table legs underneath being in the way? Or is that not an issue?
I used this blade with my circular saw. Cheap and fairly easy. There will be a lot of sparks flying tho.I want to upgrade mine also - but how have you and others managed the table legs underneath being in the way? Or is that not an issue?

@TunnelMoney had a lead on a great one, but it was pricey. Not sure where that stands.How heavy are these tables? Anyone make a storage bag for traveling with these things for easier transport?

This was an issue... That I didn't realize until I finished my project lol.I want to upgrade mine also - but how have you and others managed the table legs underneath being in the way? Or is that not an issue?
Is this the cloth from Texas Poker Supply? If so what size did you get? It looks rad.
Should prob buy some wire and put that backHow have you guys fixed tables with a very slight sag in the middle?
I just bought a used one that doesnt have an adjustable wire on the legs to keep it from wanting to fold the other way when its open
I've never owned a folding table like this, do you have a picture of the wire itself and what makes it adjustable?Should prob buy some wire and put that back
I dont think the table ever came with one, so I want to see how tables that have them look like and how I should be installing one to make it the most stable.
I also want to the the mechanism itself that makes the cable adjustable. Is it a special loop thing that you can adjust by hand? Is it a clamp you need a screwdriver for?
I'll post one tomorrow once the family celebrations are over for my little sister. The "sag" isn't much, I may he overreacting, butnid love the security of a wire. Or maybe I could bulk it up when I take the table apart to refelt it.The wire is not adjustable on the table. It’s fixed in its position and has tension on it once the table is opened. Do you have a picture of your sagging table? We may have suggestions after seeing it.
Ah yeah that's def a different brand of table, that's gonna be a lot more effort to refelt.Sorry for the wait, the "bow" is so slight, I dont think itll be too much of an issue
However, this table I bought looks like it's going to be a project to re-felt. There is no rail, just plastic with foam and vinyl. Based off of how the table is constructed, the rail doesnt pop off or is held with screws, its sewn into the felt. This means that I will have to play carpenter and build a rail for this table when I decide to rip it apart, pad it, and upholster it.
I plan on hopefully gutting it and fixing this up for a summer project.
-keeping the table padding and adding speed cloth. May have to replace the padding.
-fabricating rails and installing them
-adding deeper cup holders
-adding handles for easier handling when transporting
-adding a buckle of some sort to keep it closed when in storage/travel.
-potentially sewing a canvas storage bag for this thing to protect it better
I cut out the cloth on the underside of the table to see what the construction looked like already.

I'll probably make another post for when I continue with this table to show how to fix these ones up.Ah yeah that's def a different brand of table, that's gonna be a lot more effort to refelt.
