From start to finish is a documentary about crokinole from the playing to the building. It also features Willard Martin's story. I am very proud of this documentary
I can't wait to get my hands on one. Recently started playing the game on a really cheap Walmart board and I'm absolutely addicted to it. I've watched a ton of World Championship Crokinole videos on youtube.
Beautiful work! I am going to try and make my own crokinole board. I just can’t figure out how to make the round guard. Looks like you had some sort of thin wood that you bent around the edge.
I agree it is unfortunate that this isn't clear in the video but there are other videos that cover it a bit. His process is much more efficients and produces equivalent or better results. The only part not clear is how does he make or get the this strips.
@@phaedruscj3330 I ended up finding something called "Bendy Ply" at my local lumber store. It was a very, very bendable, thin plywood. I laminated two pieces of it together and bent it around the outside of my board and it worked well.
@@theburnetts That would be ideal. Ripping 1/8 strips somehow on my table saw is not within my capability yet. I have only seen the flexible ply online under various names and only at Home Depots site which indicates no longer available. I have found nothing so far in eastern Kansas. I found some web sites that offer (made by laminating the layers parallel rather than cross wise) but exceed my budget. Thanks for the reply!

Would love to start playing this but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be a thing here in the UK. To buy a board and ship it here is just far too expensive. I'll have to stick to my game app on the phone. I wish I was more DIY capable so I could attempt my own but wouldn't know where to start.
@@huwadamson Yup. I heard great things about this board. So I bought one. Can't compare it with other boards because it's my first one , but I gotta admit.. Smooth surface. It's made with love and you can see it. Great board. They even have a hang system for it. Bought it today. Will hang beautiful in the living room
It's not sand, it's gliss powder. They have different types for different speeds. It helps to make the disc glide smoother and faster. You don't need gliss powder, but professionals consistently use it. There is a vibrant debate about it's use in the crokinole community.

www.crokinolegameboards.com/ Mr. Willard retired but before doing so passed on all his processes to Jeremy Tracey. Tracey boards are the boards used now at the major tournaments and having just gotten one I can attest that they are phenomenal.
Round is recognized by the world crokinole championships. A round side rail or rim has a definite advantage. The position of your lower palm or wrist is always the same distance from the start/5 line when you initiate your crokinole shot. www.crokinole.com/faq.asp
