So you want to build a craps table - pt 3
Holy crap, cutting these things out can be tedious.
But, I am getting pretty darn good with this jigsaw. Maybe I will find some sort of quarter round corner 3/4″ plywood cutting contest to enter after this is all done.
Anyways, got a bunch more of these pieces done. 54 to be exact. By my calculation I should only need a total of 60, 15 per corner, so I am pretty close to done.
Then all that will be left to cut out will be one long side, and the main table base that the layout goes on. Then on to the ever so exciting assembly stage. Have to get myself some wood glue.
I still am thinking about how to do the legs/base of this beast. The plans call for the legs to be attatched to the base of the table but I want the legs to come off fairly easily so this thing can be transported if needed. Last suggestion I got was to use a big TV stand. Not a bad idea, since then there will be shelves and doors already built in, it is about the right size, and this table won’t weigh any more than a 36″ tube tv (I hope). Still considering options, but I do like the idea of some sort of shelving/cabinet unit to be used as a base. Would look more solid and provide some storage instead of just wasted space under there.
