Sacrifice your sleep. It'll kill you too, but at least you'll get your project completed and have piece of mind.

So far... Beautiful.

I thought the Varsity Club was going to do that.  Classes have started again, so I can only hope it doesn't take me too long to complete it.

How did you get the wall of the arm rest part so perfect with all those curves?

I'd like to know too.  When you get the chance could you shoot me a set of plans?  I'd like to make one of these to lay on top of my pool table from time to time.  ;D

Well fellas I'm sorry to say there are no plans.  I'm winging the whole thing.  I highly recommend www.scottkeen.com/forum.  It is to home poker anything as byoac is to home arcade machines.  Anyways, I used a plunge router, (I can't speak highly enough of the $40 Harbor Freight special).  I have an attachment that I bought at a wood store to made large radii.  I used the same center holes to make all the cuts on each end.  I also made a unique jig to cut the dealer area.  Also, if you look at the other poker table thread, you can see how I did that.  I would be more than happy to describe anything else you guys want to know.   :cheers:

One thing I'm really looking forward to is the following.  I bought an unfinished board of mahogany today at WoodCrafters.  I plan on using the board to make the skirt that goes around the table.  I plan to fully document the process as it has been one of the most puzzling things I've been trying to figure out in this process.

I'm assuming no cameras on this one?  Good luck with the mahogany sides.
