I can't remember which link it was that i used, but there was one on homepokertourney where a guy showed how to get the rail smooth by using one big piece of vinyl/leather. I did that on mine, and it worked really well. The piece of vinyl is big enough to set the rail in it, then you fold the outside in, make a cut in the middle and stretch it back over the rail.

For my padding, i just used a foam i got at a surplus store, and im not all that crazy about it. I played on a table where a guy used a layer or two of carpet pad, and that felt really good. I would reccomend looking into that for the rail.
