The Freebird Gaming Table

[@TheCrystalSoulTribe]

Oh wow I’m so excited as I live in Sheffield! I’m going to check out your other videos and website!

[@freebirdgamingtable]

What do you think? The most recent models are on instagram, we've made further improvements. @freebirdinteriors We are in talks with a videographer to get some professional marketing footage together and start marketing this properly in due course

[@BAT_MAN2553]

I love this concept, due to we are a puzzle and gaming family.. Love the concept also for extra inserts for drinks as well as small areas, helps with big gatherings..

[@Alastair_Freebird]

Thank you! We are making the latest one right now in our sheffield workshop. Get in touch to come see it if you are considering buying one. www.freebirdinteriors.co.uk

at 2:40 ... a spider checking around the table to see if it even is suited to build a nest in it ? :P

Hi, I read your answer to the shipping in US question. You don't ship outside of UK? Because I'm in Italy and I'm interested of your project. Thanks a lot for your time.

[@Alastair_Freebird]

Hi thanks for your interest and please do email us on [e-mail] to be added to the mailing list for future updates. We are still awaiting delivery of our CNC machine which will enable us to go into production and the first step will be a small batch for local UK customers only. When everything is running smoothly we may start to look at shipping further afield but we will take it all one step at a time.

Looks good.

Really cool Alistair. Do consider partnering with a larger manufacturer if the chance arises. I think the key with this will be hitting the market before cheap knock offs start coming through on Amazon etc. Really want to see you be successful with this given how much hard work you have put in and how great a product you’ve made!

[@freebirdgamingtable]

Thanks, I see what you are saying. I have some good advisors to call on and will be taking all the advice I can get to do this right!

[@satanismybrother]

@@freebirdgamingtable I will, of course, be aggressively lobbying my wife for a new dining room table with gaming function....

[@samrix5793]

Really like the innovation of design. I saw another gaming table on KZbin that had a lift out felt Jigsaw board which could go on top of the table. You could then make felt insert boards for roulette or poker etc?

[@freebirdgamingtable]

Lots of potential I agree Sam

@@freebirdgamingtable I think it was from fishers workshop if you've seen that video?

[@LostWhits]

Very interesting update on the accessories. I drafted up my own take just mucking around and ended up with it being 60mm bigger than my CNC capabilities. So back to the drawing board for me. I'm in Australia so your product isn't going to be an option for me, but it does look like a great addition to the international market.

[@freebirdgamingtable]

Thanks for your comment!

[@mrcagas1158]

Do you have a price yet for the table. Or a ebay item number or your web site to purchase it thanks carl.

[@freebirdgamingtable]

Hi Carl thanks for your interest, the latest prices are towards the bottom of this page: freebirdinteriors.co.uk/the-freebird-gaming-table What set up would you be wanting?

[@jamesmurray2690]

Best of luck with the table. It’s looking great!

[@freebirdgamingtable]

Thanks

[@ChristopherCobra]

Looking good. Wish I could order a proto-type. I noticed the height change! I also really like the leaf stored under the top. I realize the undercart is something you all like and options are always good, but I find myself trying to figure out how to get rid of it. It just seems like a lot of xtra wood and a reason to bend down. Personally, I would prefer a tray I can store inside the table to hold the accessories. Maybe one that could be flipped when empty to become a usable tray. At any rate, it looks almost flat packable. You might have to nest the legs in another box. Wondering, I assume the ply holes would be filled, or would you all end veneer the top? I can think of a lot of options for the gaming surface! Can't wait to see the next step forward!

[@freebirdgamingtable]

Hi I think we would make it modular - separate prices for the add on components. I considered storing trays etc inside the gaming area but it seems to me that wouldn't always work when a game is set up. But I do think it could be good to use the 4th leaf like a tray, upside down, using it's recess to store things when it is under the table. At least the brackets that work with it.

[@sadamien3214]

Hello, your presentation of the game table is really superb! The clean design is right! Small question, will it be possible to have access to the plans so that I can manufacture it? Thank you for your return.

[@freebirdgamingtable]

Hi, thank you. No I can't give away the plans too easily after such a long process of refinement. I am working on bringing it to market in the UK first. It is however a future possibility to find partners in other parts of the world to manufacture it there for me for customers more local to them, but this would be a long way in the future I think.

[@lothsunv5]

@@freebirdgamingtable I second the hope for plan availability. even at a cost I think you could make a decent profit off the plans and still come out on top for selling the tables. Just add in a stipulation with the plans that they are for personal use only.

[@casselscustom8922]

A great idea. I remember the wood whisperer made something similar. Is it possible to hide the handles/catches for the attachable cupholders on the underside?

[@Alastair_Freebird]

Hi, They work better on top, to force the insert down into a rebate, which is better suited that way round. I know they may not be to everyone's taste!

[@illumina700]

This is stunning what are the plans for selling this guys?

[@freebirdgamingtable]

Hi Richard it is now available to buy as described here: freebirdinteriors.co.uk/the-freebird-gaming-table

[@freebirdgamingtable]

We treat each enquiry the same as our bespoke fitted furniture customers and we are continuing to develop the design based on the feedback we receive. See for example these recent variations on the lockable insert designs: instagram.com/p/COQ4lk8DfYs/?

[@classifiedcast1313]

You mentioned the UK market, but would there be any plans to ship to US customers?

[@freebirdgamingtable]

I would love to but really it's a huge and problematic task from a standing start so I need to focus on making it work in the UK before I can think seriously about next steps.

[@classifiedcast1313]

That is completely understandable! I’ve been looking for a table like this for a while. I believe the US market is a bit overpriced and way behind on fulfillment. Good luck moving into full production!

[@huckwach3074]

Too bad! Love the deceptively simple look loaded with functionality! Let us know when they come to the US!

[@casselscustom8922]

Could you form a partnership with some cnc operators in the USA and simply take a small fee for each table produced?

[@Alastair_Freebird]

@@casselscustom8922 I have i mind to do something exactly like this. I want to get it going in the UK first. I'd need to build trust with providers in the US, I don't think it would be simple to avoid losing control of my design.

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

I would love a table like this. But sadly I'm unemployed atm.
