Backgammon Board build from wood around the shop

This is me just trying to figure out how to make one of these boards. It was a bit tricky for me on parts of it. Let me know how you think it turned out.

Nice job

[@everettnowack182]

I appreciate your approach. I was wondering if one could stain parts before assembly and youve shown that it can be done. Quite inspirational.

Thanks

Looks like a tough project

[@DougLearn]

Yea could do a few things better if I build another

[@buddys1702]

I believe your arrangement of light/dark points is inconsistent with commercial backgammon boards. For example, the distance from one dark point to another dark point is always an even number. Other than that, nice job. Thanks.

Thanks for watching

[@SeanDuffy-jl9kp]

nice board but it is not playable as the placement of the coloured triangles is incorrect. It is supposed to be dark and light parallel to eachother.😁

[@ScreaminBaby]

Ummm... am I the only one who noticed that you put two dark wedges next to each other when you assembled both halves!? Had you spun one half around you would've been fine. Suppose you figured it out when you went to play.

[@DougLearn]

Yep it was noted after it was built. I hate that happened

[@10bc-tenerifebackgammonclub]

You've put the point in incorrect, same colour don't go opposite each other they follow in rotation.

Woodglut comes with very useful plans with all the details you need.

[@DougLearn]

I have not heard of them before but I looked them up and seems you have to pay for their plans. Some of my enjoyment in the shop is trying to figure some of it out without plans.Thanks for checking mine out and hope it might have been some help

[@andy1way]

Watched for a minute then I got as bored as you sound. So I left.

Thanks for your comment I appreceiate both the positive and negitive comments as I can learn and hopefully improve my videos.
