Any game boards geeks here...

I am! and I just finished building this beauty

Don't laugh now

Wood used - White ash
White board (dry erase) bottom 3.75" deep
Insert reversible play field 2.75" deep

Notes
Only 4 screws in entire table
No table top, this is a dedicated gaming table. Actually over this weekend I am going mod the insert play field so it can be adjust up and flush with the top rails, Should be interesting.

Montage...

Adjustable vault support




Lower Level D&D Play field White Board / Plexiglas to put maps under I plan on getting grid pattern made on the next table.

Lovely work, and a nifty hobby. I played a ton of Avalon Hill back in the day, and was in a club that played military miniatures at a later stage....

Computer games these days, but I miss the FTF part, I must admit.

I used to play Risk and D&D a lot as a kid. When my mom died last month I actually found all my old hardback D&D books from over 30 years back. Gave them to my little brother.

That's a thing of beauty and imaginative. Are you going to be making matching chairs?

I made a play table and two chairs and an outdoor playhouse for my daughter several decades ago . The only wood working projects that I have ever done or will. I am just not very good at it and stressed me out.

Whereas I don't admire you for your political leanings, do envy you for your wood working skills.

Not so much board games any more, but we are planning to spend some time on jigsaw puzzles over the Thanksgiving weekend. Can I borrow your table for that?

Regards,

D-Ray
