I want to buy wood to make a table tennis table top - I wanted advice on where to buy the wood from
I've looked at the wood the tables are made of and it's generally cheap wood - but with a coating (nothing special about that either)
Width: 152.5cm
Length: 274cm
Thickness: 2cm - or thicker
Ideally I would like some coating that protected the wood
I need 2 pieces of the above
The cheapest price for an actual table tennis top (2 sides) is £162
(This is a very well known name brand and the quality and thickness is very good)
I'd be interested to get if I could get considerably cheaper - if only a small price less, then I might as well get the real mckoy
ALSO, the wood would need to be the *exact* measurements given
I went to a sports shop and was shocked that some tables for sale at £300 - £400 had wood that was 0.5mm thick!
Thanks
