Furniture and accessories manufacturer Wyrmwood Gaming is re-releasing their innovative Modular Gaming Table, a popular design that was waylaid in recent years by supply shortages that have since been resolved. The MGT is essentially a dining table whose surface can be removed in panels, revealing a sunken gaming or crafting area beneath:

There’s even an optional box filled with slotted foam inserts, to hold the table leaves when they’re removed:
Wyrmwood, which manufactures the tables in America, says they’ve built some 10,000 to date. For the re-launch, they chose to run a Kickstarter campaign as a means of managing both pre-orders and rolling batch production (the company can produce 100 tables per week, or 400 a month), selling them in ten separate delivery-window “waves” of 400 buyers each. A reservation amount of $299 is required (with the final price to be determined once the user goes through the company’s digital table configurator tool, available to pledgers in two weeks’ time). After the campaign went live, the company hit their $1,000,000 target within hours.
