    10-sided Poker Table

    A group of friends have been playing poker for many years. I decided to make a Poker Table that would accommodate up to 10 players.
    Although the usual count is 7 or 8 at our weekly games, there are times when it's easily filled with 10.
    The table was intended for limited space and be able to fold up for storage without having a split-line in the middle.
    I used SolidWorks to design the fold-up mechanism and the table top. It was made at a height for people to use "bar stools".
    The table top was made using surplus 3/4" Birch cabinet panels, with oak side rails & trim added.
    The angled Birch pieces were joined using biscuits.;

    The oval piece was covered with a tough vinyl
    and has seen about 17 years of use with no damage;

    to the rolling position for storage...
