Does anyone know where I could find orange speed cloth? I put purple on my recent build (picture attached) and I would love to find orange for my existing table. My two favorite teams are the Baltimore Ravens and Philadelphia flyers. I've had a hard time finding it in orange.

Any help is appreciated!

God help us... effing cool color, effing hell to play on. I’d have a headache after 10 minutes, lol.
I was going to say exactly this. I have used an orange felt for an old table years ago. After one game I realized it had to go. It is too much on the eyes. Just far too bright. When looking for a craps table felt I found a really cool looking layout....in bright orange. Thank God of learned my lesson or I would have made a costly mistake.

Better to get a custom cloth printed with some orange color accents rather than the whole thing in orange. Easier on the eyes.
I would listen to this guy. Then call him when you are ready to have said cloth made.
 
Yep, one of the locals here is a huge Tennessee fan, and built a full-size 4x8 table with a blaze orange nylon playing surface. Cards slide like turbocharged rabbits on ice, but you see sun spots when looking away after playing on it for 5 minutes. Not a user-friendly color.
 
You said 'purple' and I thought 'yuck' but that looks really nice.

Thanks man. As you can see the table in the background is the original one I built, black rails with a wood racetrack and black plastic cupholders in the racetrack. I think you guys may be right, the blaze orange may be too much for consistant viewing. Given that the rail and cupholders are black, black suited speed cloth may be a good choice.

Yep, i used that color on my round portable (with gray vinyl rail) and I think it looks pretty sharp. Best part is that both blue- and red-backed cards stand out against it (green and brown, too).
 
Would a more burnt orange (thinking Texas Longhorns) be better in terms of ease on the eyes?
 
lol - I hear ya, having lived with an Aggie for almost a decade now.

Though mine seems to dislike Tech more than UT for some reason.

I gotta be honest, I wanted that color to further my sports/man cave theme, but it looks better than I thought it would. Plus that suited speed cloth makes all the difference. Another thing that I did different on the second table, from the first, was I upgraded the foams that I put in the rail and under the felt. Noticable difference in both, but bigger on the rail. way more comfortable to rest elbows on.

No shade of orange is acceptable. EVER! Especially burnt orange!!

As someone who is scarred by Frostee Rucker’s inability to contain the outside edge against Vince Young twelve years ago, I am not the world’s biggest Longhorn fan either.

That said, OP was asking about a particular color - namely orange.

True, but I like where this is going.
 
Oh wow, I missed the Chan man link, that table is sweet! Yes, if you Google "hockey poker table" you can get some great ideas. And I'm sure Chan man can help.
