elevated racetrack with chip bays and routered chip rails

[j p frog]

i personally prefer to play at tables that have an elevated racetrack or chiprail along with chip bays. these allow plenty to space for chip stacking and also keep chips from each player separate from one another. the chiprail version also gives the feel of sitting at a stadium if that makes any sense. i know there are some that don't like the look, but we all have our preferences. i am starting this thread to get the opinions out there and also to post my tables with these features as well as others who may have made similar tables. thanks! scott

Love the elevated rail, not a big fan of the chip trays. I love stackign my chips and dont like them laying down. But they do look nice

you can still stack the chips in the chip bay if you like. I like the chip rails to play from. Just my slant on things.
