Hey everyone, i hate my carpet. i cant stand it anymore. I cant do floor work properly and cant walk in my heels. Im sure tons of people have this same problem and just wondering if anyone has made actual portable dance flooring. ive done a lot of research but have came up with nothing to "how to make it". Has anyone made it? Just want to know what type of materials i need!

I had a guy where I work make me one that works great. He is a skilled carpenter, woodwork, etc. Here are some videos where I've used it https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/529435d3-6840-4342-8683-05860a9aa0eb and https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/52944fba-0d64-441c-ae6e-07a40a9aa0eb He just used a board 4x5 1/2 and put a sheet of laminate on top (he had the blue laminate left over from another project), then put that trim to cover up the rough edge of the board. I hot glued a piece of fabric on the bottom because it was rough and wanted to protect it from snagging the carpet. Because he had this material left over it took him about 15-20 minutes, he did it at work on his break lol. There isn't a hole in the middle for the pole, I just centered it under the stud on ceiling and centered pole on it. I love it!!!
FYI, I don't pole in holes and very rarely "dance" but trying to more. I use the foot undeez for ease.

I made one for my pole room. Just plywood and we fastened the two plywood pieces together and put peel and stick laminate wood tiles. The fasteners are on the underside and it required two people to flip the boards.
I made mine - here's the basic rundown: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wXdvQ1jFw0 Cost $200-$300 and can be done in a day's time - much better than carpet!!
Nicely done Ava! By the way, I meant to say: I don't pole in heels (not holes lol)
