The best ping pong table for you is dependent on your needs more than anything. Table are categorized differently into what consumers typically buy them for. ex: Home recreation, Tournament Quality, Outdoor.
Building a Table would be ill advised. Manufacturers use certain grades and types of MDF or Particle Board tops. They finish them in a special manor using a certain type of paint often times. Then there is also durable chassis designs and top thickness's.

For most amateur players, virtually any tennis ball having the "USTA" and/or "ITF" logo on the outside of the tennis ball can will work for hard courts. However, most such tennis balls are clearly indicated somewhere on the can. Most tennis ball manufacturers use colored inks on the ball to indicate which is suitable for a given surface. For example, black ink tends to mean that it is for blacktop (i.e., hard courts), red ink for clay, and green ink for grass, although there is no official standard (i.e., although the ball color is strictly mandated by the ITF and USTA - - the ruling bodies of tennis - - the ink colors on the ball are not).
There is no one best table tennis brand because everyone could be looking for something different. First of all if you just want to buy one for you or the family to learn on, I would suggest investing in a Sportscraft that you can find on sale at times for $149. That way you won't be worried about breaking it while learning.
Any balls that are white (orange balls are not allowed in tornaments) that have 3 stars and have ittf on it.
