Foot rail on poker table

I'm considering putting a brass foot rail on a round, 68" diameter, poker
table. What distance in from the edge should the foot rail be?

One "obvious" answer is "two feet, per player".

I'd suggest you research the average foot size for males (sorry ladies) and
allow enough space for a the middle of a foot to rest on the rail without
hitting the wood in front of it. Either that or just go into some bar and
measure the distance that they use.

You might check online for a hardware supplier that carries the rail.
Or check with your supplier if you're buying the rail locally. Most
also carry the brass brackets that mount to a bar (in your case the
table) and sometimes also have a leg that goes to the floor. They
should be able to give you the measurements of the bracket.

Yes, an absolutely horrible thing to to do, trying to get someone
to think for themself.
