So I built one.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I took inspiration from observing real gaming tables, from GeekChic, Rathskellers, Ultimate gaming and many more. I wanted it to be as geeky as possible so cup holders, dice holders, lights, sounds, the works. Obviously, as I am no carpenter, I thought I&#8217;d use common wood, not the expensive polished ones, and then line it with (fake) leather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0207-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"304\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=304\" class=\"wp-image-304\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0207-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0207-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0207-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>The table is hollow-core (top)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0205-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"302\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=302\" class=\"wp-image-302\"\/><figcaption>Hollow-core (bottom)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0206-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"303\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=303\" class=\"wp-image-303\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0206-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0206-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0206-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>Caskets<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0209-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"306\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=306\" class=\"wp-image-306\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0209-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0209-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.electricdawn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_0209-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>Before lining<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At first, I hadn&#8217;t planned to add the built-in monitor (more expensive, big hassle to cut, line, set up, etc.) but then, while I was working in secret, one of the guys sent me a picture, \u00a0innocently stating &#8211; &#8220;look at this table with the built-in monitor!
