When a friend expressed frustration at not being able to build his own poker table, Tom Madden of Pierson’s Ridge offered to lend a hand. In his research Madden discovered poker table plans that were either too vague or so complicated as to make even the seasoned woodworker fold his hand.So he built his own.
It turned out so well that he wrote a book about it to show others. HOW TO BUILD THE WORLD’S BEST POKER TABLE (ISBN 0-9785622-0-8, $9.95) was published this spring and is now available at online bookstores, gaming suppliers and directly from the website: www.worldsbestpokertable.com.
What makes the world’s best poker table? Start with quality materials: wood, felt, foam and vinyl. Madden tells you where to find the BEST materials to make your new table play like a dream and last forever. Design it so it can be put together with tools found in everyday toolboxes. Make it simple enough to complete the project in two relaxed weekends - and keep the entire price tag under $500.
HOW TO BUILD THE WORLD’S BEST POKER TABLE features 14 easy-to-follow instructions with over 100 photographs that will guide even the novice woodworker safely home. Also included are 6 steps to hosting the World’s Best Home Poker Game, including the recipe for the Madden Famous Meatball Sandwich.
