@Steiner Finish it if you want, this looks sick!
Custom Global Table
-
This table is excellent. I am envious.
-
It is a fantastic table.
what I particularly like is the fact that the early shots are in your kitchen… leading me to believe you are either single or soon to be divorced. :-D Because I know that if I came home and dropped a 4’ x 8’ sheet of plywood in the Kitchen I’d better be building something to sleep in. Cause I’d be needing it when I was outside later that night. LOL
Great work!
-
Hahah yea, I definitely live alone. And if I didn’t, I would be now!
-
Sweet board. Got to participate in the breaking in phase, so much better than trying to play on a coffee table.
-
Great job on the table.
-
Beautiful.
-
I then went online and found some containers at, imagine this thecontainerstore.com that I wanted to use for holding the units etc…
Hey Aaron, great table!!!
Can I ask what the measurements were on these containers? Or better yet, a link to the exact containers you ended up purchasing?
They look great, good size and appear stackable too for when the game/table is all packed up yeah?
Cheers

Thanks Speed_Adict!
They are completely stackable, which I will completely admit, was an accident that ended up working out in my favor! I purchased the containers before building the actual table and used the containers as a guide for my measurements. I tried to get the boxes as geographically close to their corresponding countries as possible… but anyway… here you go!

enjoy!

Cheers ;)
Yeah that’s what I also plan on doing, building a table around the map and containers…
Going to wait though and see what layout best suits out group (i.e. Where do we usually roll the dive (left? Right?), where do we place out cards etc).
Thanks again :)
-
No problem,
Post the pics when you are done!
happy gaming!
-
You guys are right to build around the map and containers first, things like dice trays, card decks, and money stacks can all be worked in later.
-
Exactly YG.
I ended up with extra space on both sides that I just used for creating dice trays. I think planning it out in regard to where you want to put what country’s trays is probably one of the most important steps. Once you have that, you can start swinging the hammer!

Nice work, well done.
I’ve enjoyed browsing the different threads on creating a custom table. Lots of creative thought and good ideas.

UNBELIEVABLE!!! i tried to source out bamboo to build my own boxes and these are considerably cheaper (if you count waste) thanks for the link. Im looking into them as i type this. It will probably look more complete by the time im done too. Thanks again :)

Thanks Bighammer,
keep us updated!
Wartorn-
It took me forever to find those. Glad I could be of service! Let us know how it turns out.
