22 feet long, 6.5 feet wide at the center: that's a good sized boat shaped conference table. Just the sheer number of square feet of material, and it's associated labor, drives the price on large conference tables. But the cost can be kept within reason by keeping things simple. This is a good example of that approach: an inexpensive wood for the top, and not too much in the way of wiring, keeps even this battleship below the 20k mark.
