00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,890
I love playing this game of Mancala with
2
00:00:01,890 --> 00:00:03,810
my kids but somebody left the board out
3
00:00:03,810 --> 00:00:05,910
overnight it wasn't me and there was a
4
00:00:05,910 --> 00:00:08,010
rain storm and it completely warped so
5
00:00:08,010 --> 00:00:09,330
instead of going and buying anyone I
6
00:00:09,330 --> 00:00:11,190
thought maybe I could try to make one by
7
00:00:11,190 --> 00:00:13,469
myself so I found this piece of poplar
8
00:00:13,469 --> 00:00:16,049
in the hobby section of Home Depot and
9
00:00:16,049 --> 00:00:17,520
I'm going to try to make it out of this
10
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:22,540
let's see if I can recreate the game I
11
00:00:22,550 --> 00:00:25,140
started off by marking up the poplar
12
00:00:25,140 --> 00:00:27,390
board using the old warped game as a
13
00:00:27,390 --> 00:00:29,760
reference for all the sizes the board I
14
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,590
was working with was 3/4 inches thick
15
00:00:31,590 --> 00:00:34,050
about 24 inches long and 7 inches and
16
00:00:34,050 --> 00:00:37,230
change wide I hate doing math so in
17
00:00:37,230 --> 00:00:39,090
order to get the center of the seven and
18
00:00:39,090 --> 00:00:40,890
change board I took my ruler put it at
19
00:00:40,890 --> 00:00:42,660
the corner and set it at an angle and
20
00:00:42,660 --> 00:00:44,879
put it at an even number which was 10 in
21
00:00:44,879 --> 00:00:46,500
this case and then I marked off five
22
00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:49,530
which is half of 10 and there I have the
23
00:00:49,530 --> 00:00:51,390
middle of the board without having to do
24
00:00:51,390 --> 00:00:53,430
any math this is a great way to find the
25
00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:56,190
center of any odd sized board after it
26
00:00:56,190 --> 00:00:58,620
was all marked up I got to working on it
27
00:00:58,620 --> 00:01:01,260
the holes so I made a few failed jigs
28
00:01:01,260 --> 00:01:03,030
and templates but what ended up working
29
00:01:03,030 --> 00:01:05,339
was this scrap piece of MDF that I found
30
00:01:05,339 --> 00:01:07,439
with a 5 inch hole saw cut into it and a
31
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:09,990
half inch core box bit in my router so
32
00:01:09,990 --> 00:01:11,880
all I had to do was mark off the center
33
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:13,799
of where I wanted the hole to be on the
34
00:01:13,799 --> 00:01:16,320
game and line it up with a center lines
35
00:01:16,320 --> 00:01:19,290
that I made on the template so it was a
36
00:01:19,290 --> 00:01:21,060
little bit difficult because after you
37
00:01:21,060 --> 00:01:22,799
start cutting you're cutting away at
38
00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:24,840
your lines so I just have to be really
39
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,390
careful about lining them up and see if
40
00:01:27,390 --> 00:01:29,159
you could see a little bit clearer where
41
00:01:29,159 --> 00:01:31,259
the lines are this was really just so
42
00:01:31,259 --> 00:01:33,600
satisfying to watch as I was doing this
43
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,689
and I just kept lowering my bit until I
44
00:01:36,689 --> 00:01:38,549
got to the depth that I wanted I
45
00:01:38,549 --> 00:01:40,530
originally planned on using a Bowl
46
00:01:40,530 --> 00:01:42,329
carving bit or a dish carving bit in my
47
00:01:42,329 --> 00:01:43,890
router when I first thought of this idea
48
00:01:43,890 --> 00:01:45,689
but I didn't like how big the hole was
49
00:01:45,689 --> 00:01:47,280
when I use this five inch hole saw and I
50
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:48,659
didn't like how small it was when I used
51
00:01:48,659 --> 00:01:49,649
the four inch hole saw
52
00:01:49,649 --> 00:01:51,659
so these core box bit was the perfect
53
00:01:51,659 --> 00:01:53,130
size it was about two and a quarter
54
00:01:53,130 --> 00:01:55,290
inches wide but it leaves a very rough
55
00:01:55,290 --> 00:01:57,060
bottom but I figured out a solution if
56
00:01:57,060 --> 00:01:58,619
you keep watching towards the end of how
57
00:01:58,619 --> 00:02:00,540
to sand the bottoms of this holes pretty
58
00:02:00,540 --> 00:02:03,270
easily so if you could spot the
59
00:02:03,270 --> 00:02:05,460
unintended irony here in this little
60
00:02:05,460 --> 00:02:08,700
clip here comment below so just moving
61
00:02:08,700 --> 00:02:10,739
right along the me and twelve holes are
62
00:02:10,739 --> 00:02:12,360
basically very repetitive
63
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,310
and I just kept on measuring to see that
64
00:02:14,310 --> 00:02:16,590
they were all the same depth now the
65
00:02:16,590 --> 00:02:19,110
home are the goals or whatever you want
66
00:02:19,110 --> 00:02:20,940
to call them be big ovals that are on
67
00:02:20,940 --> 00:02:22,680
opposite sides of the board they were a
68
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,170
little bit different where I had to
69
00:02:25,170 --> 00:02:27,660
connect the two holes from either side
70
00:02:27,660 --> 00:02:30,300
so first I just used the router to make
71
00:02:30,300 --> 00:02:33,720
the two opposite holes and then I moved
72
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,320
the template to the center and used in
73
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,240
my router to route out that middle part
74
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:40,890
in the center and I was like oh this is
75
00:02:40,890 --> 00:02:42,690
like seems like pretty easy enough I'm
76
00:02:42,690 --> 00:02:44,310
gonna just like without my chisel and
77
00:02:44,310 --> 00:02:46,020
I'm gonna chisel away and make a perfect
78
00:02:46,020 --> 00:02:48,360
little oval here but it didn't really
79
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,340
work out quite like as I thought it
80
00:02:50,340 --> 00:02:52,140
would it was not as easy as I thought it
81
00:02:52,140 --> 00:02:55,290
would be and I then decided to take my
82
00:02:55,290 --> 00:02:57,209
router with an edge guide and just
83
00:02:57,209 --> 00:02:59,250
smooth up those sides and make it
84
00:02:59,250 --> 00:03:01,709
completely smooth and even this was
85
00:03:01,709 --> 00:03:03,120
actually my first time using the edge
86
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,040
guide on the router and it's really
87
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,480
handy I'm definitely gonna use it more
88
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:06,750
often
89
00:03:06,750 --> 00:03:08,880
all right so since I use this core box
90
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,980
bit and not the bull carving bit the
91
00:03:10,980 --> 00:03:12,540
bottoms of the holes are not completely
92
00:03:12,540 --> 00:03:13,890
wet if I would have used this bull
93
00:03:13,890 --> 00:03:15,959
carving bit the bottoms would be super
94
00:03:15,959 --> 00:03:17,489
smooth and I would have to do a minimal
95
00:03:17,489 --> 00:03:19,470
amount of sanding but because I used the
96
00:03:19,470 --> 00:03:21,120
core box bit there's the bumps and
97
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,190
ripples and I have to do a lot of
98
00:03:23,190 --> 00:03:25,290
sanding to get it to be super smooth and
99
00:03:25,290 --> 00:03:27,030
I do not want to do that by hand so I'm
100
00:03:27,030 --> 00:03:28,739
trying to figure out an easy way to do
101
00:03:28,739 --> 00:03:31,080
with one of my power tools so I have
102
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,030
this breast rod and this remnant from a
103
00:03:33,030 --> 00:03:34,890
hole saw I'm gonna epoxy them together
104
00:03:34,890 --> 00:03:36,989
put some sandpaper on the bottom stick
105
00:03:36,989 --> 00:03:38,400
this up into my drill press and
106
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,350
hopefully that will stand out the holes
107
00:03:40,350 --> 00:03:41,700
let's see if it works
108
00:03:41,700 --> 00:03:43,709
so this is where my cording is actually
109
00:03:43,709 --> 00:03:45,870
a really good thing I'd never throw
110
00:03:45,870 --> 00:03:47,310
anything away and now I have these
111
00:03:47,310 --> 00:03:49,110
remnants of hole saws and all these
112
00:03:49,110 --> 00:03:51,060
brass rods and everything and I can make
113
00:03:51,060 --> 00:03:52,920
these cool little jigs so I just cut the
114
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,870
sandpaper to size and I took off that
115
00:03:54,870 --> 00:03:56,850
like felt backing that's on it so that
116
00:03:56,850 --> 00:03:58,860
the double-sided tape would stick to it
117
00:03:58,860 --> 00:04:01,080
a little bit better and then just cut
118
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,459
off the excess tape I actually have to
119
00:04:02,459 --> 00:04:04,050
take it over to my belt sander and taper
120
00:04:04,050 --> 00:04:05,730
it a little bit so if it did bottoms of
121
00:04:05,730 --> 00:04:09,930
the holes and it worked perfectly I was
122
00:04:09,930 --> 00:04:12,060
so happy with how it worked out I would
123
00:04:12,060 --> 00:04:14,670
have sanded for days if I didn't put
124
00:04:14,670 --> 00:04:17,160
this up in my drill press it didn't
125
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,750
eliminate all the hand sanding I had to
126
00:04:18,750 --> 00:04:20,190
do I still had to like ease the edges
127
00:04:20,190 --> 00:04:21,810
and all that but not a big deal then I
128
00:04:21,810 --> 00:04:23,650
cut the board in half
129
00:04:23,650 --> 00:04:26,560
trimmed it all to size the final
130
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,270
dimensions of the game is about 23
131
00:04:28,270 --> 00:04:30,400
inches long and six and change wide and
132
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,340
the final step was to rat out the space
133
00:04:33,340 --> 00:04:34,630
for the piano hinge
134
00:04:34,630 --> 00:04:36,639
I used the edge guide again see I told
135
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:38,590
you I was gonna use it again um on the
136
00:04:38,590 --> 00:04:41,620
router to create the space for the hinge
137
00:04:41,620 --> 00:04:44,290
it worked perfectly and it's basically
138
00:04:44,290 --> 00:04:45,699
done at this point I use two coats of
139
00:04:45,699 --> 00:04:47,530
wipe on poly standing between each coat
140
00:04:47,530 --> 00:04:50,139
and I just love how this poplar grain
141
00:04:50,139 --> 00:04:52,449
pops you know poplar is such a regular
142
00:04:52,449 --> 00:04:54,850
wood people just paint over it and every
143
00:04:54,850 --> 00:04:56,830
once in a while you'll find these pieces
144
00:04:56,830 --> 00:04:58,870
with these purples and these greens and
145
00:04:58,870 --> 00:05:00,820
I just loved to stock up on those pieces
146
00:05:00,820 --> 00:05:03,490
and do something special with it and the
147
00:05:03,490 --> 00:05:04,870
last step was to put on the hinge so I
148
00:05:04,870 --> 00:05:06,820
like to use double sided tape on the
149
00:05:06,820 --> 00:05:08,260
hinge so it stays in place when I
150
00:05:08,260 --> 00:05:10,780
pre-drill the holes and I also clamp the
151
00:05:10,780 --> 00:05:12,340
two boards together so they stay
152
00:05:12,340 --> 00:05:14,440
perfectly even with each other then I
153
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,710
just pre-drilled and put these screws in
154
00:05:17,710 --> 00:05:19,750
I was using the existing hardware from
155
00:05:19,750 --> 00:05:22,419
the old Warped game board but I'm sure
156
00:05:22,419 --> 00:05:25,000
you can find this easily and then I put
157
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,510
the latch on and it is done this was
158
00:05:28,510 --> 00:05:30,280
such a fun project I'm so happy with how
159
00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:31,840
it came out I love that I could fold it
160
00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:33,460
away hopefully the beads won't get lost
161
00:05:33,460 --> 00:05:36,070
that way and I love the grain in the
162
00:05:36,070 --> 00:05:37,660
poplar I love that such an inexpensive
163
00:05:37,660 --> 00:05:39,820
wood could just look so cool like those
164
00:05:39,820 --> 00:05:41,500
purples and that grain within those
165
00:05:41,500 --> 00:05:44,110
holes there it's just really great and I
166
00:05:44,110 --> 00:05:45,789
hope my kids will enjoy this for me just
167
00:05:45,789 --> 00:06:31,930
to come let's see it in action
168
00:06:31,940 --> 00:06:36,889
yes that was an awesome move buddy
169
00:06:36,889 --> 00:06:40,949
