Hickory Board Game Box: DIY 

I'm a big board gamer and I like quality components. I am definitely one who pimps my games, but I bow to you!

After building first an alpine patterned cheese board with multiple hardwoods including hickory which required a ton of ripping at 45° angles and building a solid hickory vanity with half lap and bridle joinery… I love hickory! For true joinery methods like bridle joints, etc. hickory is amazing to work with except sometimes the router pulls and rips on the grain but it was wonderful to build with and it’s stunning with the grain striations. Where it’s difficult and not beginner friendly or even pro is when fasteners are applied! My experience so far is avoid any and all screws and or nails because the wood is so damn dense I can’t tell you how many strong fasteners snapped inside the hickory so beware! And yes I pre drilled destroying multiple bits and used soap and wax for the screws and went very slow with the drill as not to overheat the fasteners yet majority of the time fasteners broke off or were imbedded into the hickory. So don’t do a project with pocket holes and hickory!!! Even the hardwood pocket screws snapped no problem into the wood

Nice job , using Hickory can be challenging , again nice job this here gives me an idea how to start Thanks

That's a thing of beauty! I really like the inlay! 👍

Great video! I loved the game board build but your editing was very nice too. I might have to try making a few for our games at home.

Nice box! I like the idea of rehoming board games.

Should consider making a map from wood too. Maybe with inlay and/or epoxy?

Fantastic job!

Nice Bro💪👍❤

I really want to make a custom box for Bullet

Would you consider making a wooden monopoly board?

can I ask you about that software that design 3d your project?
