Catan board made on cnc (midwest.social)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by Milksteaks@midwest.social to c/woodworking@lemmy.ca
 

The softwood kind of fuzzed out but otherwise everything turned out pretty good after a solid sanding. I used oak for the wood tiles, birch for the sheep and wheat, and ash for the ore with various stains for each

Looks fantastic, the idea and craftsmanship is great. But to be completely honest, I think I would prefer actually playing on the base game. Although I don’t really play Catan that often, if you play it regularly you might be sick of the base board I guess.

The regular board falls apart when you roll dice onto it this looks much more stable

The old one, yes. The new ones have a connected water border (much like this one).
