I would be happy too. I used a tutorial video from YouTube as a starting point. https://youtu.be/spdescYFqIE His video states that it can be done for $150 but that is assuming you already have a bunch of stuff on hand. Overall mine cost about $125 and that involves me using an old table as a starting point.
Instead of bulding the legs from scratch I used the base of an old table, part of this was to save cost, part was to eliminate what I considered a lot of bulkiness. The playable surface measures 48in x 48in.
I decided against installing the cup holders and dice trays as I felt that they took up too much space. Instead I plan on installing removable cup holders in the future so that when they are not being used they can be removed.
Overall I was able to complete the initial building in one day, this will take more time if you are new to woodworking or if you have to build the legs from scratch. It than took another week to properly finish the wood. I have 1 coat of stain and 6 coats of polyurethane on all wood surfaces, I sanded with 320grit sandpaper between each coat of polyurethane. After the final coat of polyurethane, I let it dry for 48 hours and did a final wetsanding with 1500 grit sandpaper to provide a silkly smooth finish.
For the padded surface I used a 6x6 yoga mat bought off of Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003JM73RY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_dp_T2_1pymzb2HN45ZZ I than cut it down to size and secured to surface with removable double sided tape.
For my project I used the following materials, some of which I had on hand but a lot I bought.

Yoga mat. Available everywhere yoga mats are sold. They make them up to 6' x 6', just be prepared to spend a lot.
EDIT: OK, they're not even that much. https://www.amazon.ca/YogaDirect-Square-Yoga-Blue-6-Feet/dp/B003JM73RY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1473039415&sr=8-1&keywords=large+yoga+mat

It's been good so far...
I asked a similar question for a garage floor. Stable mats came up as a general purpose flooring option. I have these 6ftx6ft yoga mats: http://www.amazon.com/Yoga-Direct-6-Feet-Square-Blue/dp/B003JM73RY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458767791&sr=8-1&keywords=6ft+yoga+mat
Thin and can be folded up to an extent. Won't slide but I'd rather have a different surface to pivot on.
