Ideas on converting an old folding table into a game table? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Hey all,

I've been wanting to host game nights at my place, and was hoping to use an old folding table I have since it fits nearly under my couch (I have a small apartment) and, is cheaper than buying a whole new table.

Of course, I can use the table as-is (it's just a standard folding table after all) but I was hoping I could get some ideas on ways to have it better suit tabletop gaming.

Right now my only idea is to get a neoprene mat for the top, but I don't have any good ideas on how to non-destructively adhere it to the top of the table.

What if you cut out a piece of the table, make it so that you could rotate it? or even just holes to put in drinks.

Are tools something you have access to? or how much modification are you willing to go through?

heres an example of what I meant
