Poker Table Story
My foray into the woodworking business started with poker tables in 1999 and has grown
ever since. It started out simply enough with an oversized poker table capable of seating
8+ players with a design centered on a round design to best utilize space and viewing
angles. In 2002, I introduced a table that incorporated both a "casino feel" with an
elegant dining table because up to that point the only style poker table available was the
solid wood octagon table which was rather antiquated in my opinion.

My design quickly caught on with consumers and competitors alike and it soon became
most copied poker table design on the internet, and some builders have even gone so
far as to giving themselves credit for coming up with the design.
Never the less, I have continued to build tables and other woodworking projects and
always look forward to the next project.
