Back when the pandemic started, my sibling and I decided to take on a little woodworking project during lockdown: a table for tabletop gaming, featuring fold-out player stations and a TV in the middle for battle maps. After more than 3 years, we finally finished!
This was our first major woodworking project, and we made a ton of rookie mistakes. I was too impatient with the wood stain, and I got really inconsistent results, and despite our best efforts a lot of pieces didn’t line up quite right. But overall the table is beautiful and it’s built like a tank, so it should last through many campaigns.
Hopefully this project will be the first of many!
wow, this is awesome! i’ve seen some other tables like this for ttrpgs before, and they just seem sooo complicated to build but also so awesome for gaming! does it have any other uses you’ve found than just roleplaying games?
Thanks! I designed it to be versatile. The play surface should work well for other tabletop games, and if I throw a removable felt liner in there it would do great for card/dice games. Someone also suggested that I could add removable joystick modules to each of the player stations and do tabletop Pac-Man and other arcade-type games.
It’s also built to work as a regular dining table: https://imgur.com/OkASfSW
