In this video I’m building one of my biggest projects yet! A solid cherry board gaming table that features some awesome LED lights and a magnetic rail system that wraps around the entire table for a bunch of different accessories. 🤯🤯🎲🎲🧩🧩

😀Thanks For Watching!!😀

Link to the Design. I currently cant pay for Fusion360 Unlimited so I can't share a downloadable design but this should help with measurements among other things. I am working on a site that will have plans but hopefully this suffices until then. The password is (MakeOrDie) : a360.co/4f01jK9

    Interested in seeing some extra accessories for the gaming table? : https://youtu.be/Qaci0cR1aEY Also, I'm beyond stoked at how many people want to build a table of their own. For the mean time hopefully this helps! Link to the Design.

    One of the prettier game tables I've seen. I love how solid it is yet the top has a nice light "float" to it. The magnetic rails are really slick, the leather play surface is classy, and the diffused lights look great. I made my own table and wasn't aware of the diffusers at the time and now want to go back and add them- looks awesome. Great build!!

    Love the floating top look...ascetically pleasing and functional as well! Love it.
  • @cdl1701
    Nice build! the gray top goes really well with the cherry. Love it!

    This is awesome. I have a gaming table design I have been sitting on for two years. It's a bit more complex with power supplies, cup holders, and book shelves. But, you have a point. Just friggin do it man. Just do it. Heard and understood. This is a beautiful table. Thank you for sharing.

    Great build. Freaking love it. Now just mount a tiny fog machine under the table with the outlet leading to the play area for some extra EXTRA ambience. 😆
  • As a fellow gamer and woodworker that has made a table.... yours is epic. The LED payoff was so worth it.
  • @kupariusa4202
    "I'm not a metal worker, yet." Right attitude. The table itself is amazing. That magnetic rail is brilliant. I also like that you produce these videos with better style and quality that a certain Gin Butterfly with a million subscribers does. I also like how your woodshop is a hodgepodge of brands and eras of tools, making you relatable to the average hobbyist, unlike Gin Butterflies with nothing but Festool and Sawstop. Subscribed.
  • I think I have watched every game table video that YouTube will let me find. Yours is the best. I like your “sandwich” for vault side and arm rest and your solution for knockdown legs.
  • @kyang321
    Great video and really clear shots of what you're doing made the process easy to follow. Interested in modifying our current damaged table into a gaming table so constantly looking at others for inspiration. Don't have the tools for milling hardwoods so I was thinking of going down the route of plywood with nicer veneers.
  • @fredanastas7103
    Irwin clamps, Ryobi router and an Alibaba Domino. You are amazing. I wish you had my tools and i had half of your talent. Sweet table!
  • @MarcoMartinsM
    You rock! Congrats on the build! Please do a video on the attachments :)
