Those are some excellent tables gents!  I happen to be at the mid-point of construction on my own SA table (my second) - complete with a section of railway too.  I finished the structural part of the build yesterday and I have just laid down the first layer of paint, sand and glue.  Thanks for some great inspiration.  The stars are right...

That looks like a textured wallpaper that I have been looking at at the DIY store (Lowes or Home Depot for me), it is unpainted wallpaper that has a texture to it. I always thought it would make a great brick or rock style cover to a table.

I would like to know what you used for the base. Wood? Foamboard? Some combo? As I said before, is that textured wallpaper?

I'm sorry I didn't even check this thread!  It is the LeMax cobbelstone mat.  It's 18 by 36 inches and dark brown in color.  It paints up nicely especially with drybrushing but you have to seal the finished work with clearcoat or the paint will flake off.  It's a lot of work but looks really cool when you're finished.  Check out my flickr account, there are more pictures there.
