Is it legal to use homemade blades in tournaments?
Alois Rosario Answered 11 years ago
Hi Yunge,
You are allowed to use home made blades. There is no approval required for blades. The rule states that:
| 2.04.02 | At least 85% of the blade by thickness shall be of natural wood; an adhesive layer within the blade may be reinforced with fibrous material such as carbon fibre, glass fibre or compressed paper, but shall not be thicker than 7.5% of the total thickness or 0.35mm, whichever is the smaller. |

The thickness of a table tennis table is the most important aspect of a table to ensure you get a true consistent bounce. Other things to consider are the net, portability, and storage space.
