Was excited thinking, "Fuck yeah! Another cool diy project I could do", to "awww shit this is wayyyyy beyond my skillset, hmm... I wish I could buy it but it's probably wayyyyy beyond my budget" lmao
You can replicate the look with hexagon paper, acrylic, or plastic gift boxes. Another option is premade hexagon silicon mold, add decoration, and pour clear resin.
@@nic5423 understandable. I don't have one either, but it's only being used to pull the bubbles out of the resin. You can reduce bubbles by pouring slowly in one spot or with thin layers. If you don't care about trapped bubbles then there is no need for a vacuum.
I did a similar project like this (the one in this video is so much cleaner btw), and let me tell you it is very time consuming. The creator put a lot of effort into this and the video shows just a fraction of the total work needed to make something like this. Your main costs would be the resin and silicone (more molds can definitely speed up your work time though). I will say that if you want to do a project like this, it is very possible to do one without the other tools (vacuum chamber, blow torch, belt sander). There are resins with low bubbles and easy to work with, just do some research. Overall it makes the catan experience way more fulfilling!
It looks good but as a game it is hard to visualize the different types of resources. I would have chosen to use different woods for different tiles to help out
I was thinking the exact same thing, or different stains, also the playing pieces go on the cracks and with these pieces it looks like the cracks might be larger so maybe make some custom larger roads, settlements, and cities.
That's what I was thinking? Doesn't draw the eye naturally...beautiful tho.. not crapping on it. Now we know what we would do differently, when we don't do it!
Everything looks different colors, exepct the green ones which have sticks and what appears to be.. rice bubbles? If those are not the same they should be two different shades of green. Otherwise it reads easily (as someone who has never played this game). Brick, straw, skulls, metal(?)..
This is beautiful. I love the use of a single wood. It makes the final version cleaner. Other custom boards will have beautiful individual tiles but all together they're busy and chaotic looking. This board is artwork that can function as a playable board. Thanks for sharing.
Wow the craftsmanship is off the charts good! I’ve had to make a few spare pieces at the machine shop I work because normal game pieces from my friend’s set got lost, but the hexes in this video are on another level
I have yet to actually play this game but I've watched so many of these custom Catan board videos now 😄 Great job, I really like the ore and desert tiles!
This must have taken you a while to complete. I started learning about these kinds of DIY projects late last year and know they are extremely tedious and time-consuming, and that's without the extra tools you have to speed up the process a tad. I tip my non-existing hat to you, such beautiful work mate, I had this similar plan for the Hive game.
Wait! You mean there are no pieces? Slacker! 😜😂🤣 Great job! The other comments are right, the price would be worth whatever astronomical figure it would have to be to cover time and materials, you wouldn’t be buying a game... you’d be buying art, that doubles as a game...
@@fastcar42069 True but accidents do happen, such as with a wrist strap that doesn't properly fasten. Finger hitting a sawblade = slice. Glove grazing sawblade or just about any other rotating component = pull till the motor hits something its torque cannot overcome (i.e. big bones or who god knows what at that point). The glove rule is even more important for stationary tools, because....they are more likely to stay stationary than your limbs/body. :'(
Let me know how much it would cost to commission a set or to buy this set. I am very serious. Have you thought about how you might do the corresponding tokens?
The beach tile alone I would love to grand scale it to be a wall tile set. If thats ever possible, ballpark a number and I'll work overtime to make it happen
we are talking critic on a REAL high level because obviously that Set is something special. but I personally would have chosen different Colored wood for each different type of field, to make it more easy for the eye to distinguish the fields . Still terrific diy boardgame
Nice ! I always found this kind of set up interesting, but it requires you a lot of stuff to do that ! ^^" For information : if you wish to use your own board, you have to put 2 Ports on the water's tiles, not one ! I wonder if you can modify the tiles that you already made... let us know ! Good continuation !
All you needed now was to drill one hole in each tile enough like in a corner for mini dowels labeled with the numbers on the end so you can insert them so its flush with the top of the tiles.
@@MrWizaed Vacuum chambers usually have clear tops, but more importantly he shows the gauge right after turning it on, and the pressure is positive, meaning it was a pressure pot. Vacuum chambers, however, are great for degassing resin before pouring it into a mold. Any good resin artist should have both.
@@travboy101 Curing your resin creations in a pressure pot forces the dissolved gases in the resin to stay dissolved and not form a mass of tiny visible bubbles that make your resin thing look cloudy.
I very quickly went from "I want to do this" to "I am incapable of doing this".

It was the vacuum chamber that threw off the idea for me.

You didn't search for this, this came in your recommended and you enjoyed every second of it
@Mariano Vega about 50/50 recomends/searches once I clear out subs
I actually was looking for custom Catan board designs for a project I'll be doing for fun.
@@deergod8292 thats soo cool! I hope it turns out great😊

I would pay good money to get my hands on a set like this.
Their might be a discrepancy between your idea of "good money" and the actual cost in time and materials.
Would you pay someone for a week to create aomething like this? Because this is at least one week of full time work.
@@antharon1 I would be willing to pay what the artist says it's worth. If I can't afford it then to bad for me.
@@B10HaZaRD - Good answer!
Materials alone is about 250. Then u need the resin to set, with a vacuum so you don't get bubbles in there. U looking at a 500+ game

@@joel6376 Rice bubbles one is actually sheep/wool plates. Wool, straw, bricks, rock, wood - and two desert cards where you won’t acquire any asset...
Finally someone who understands that not only blue colored resin exists. That is a huge Like from me.

Never knew about Catan, now I’m addicted!
The hexagon with the skull looks amazing!

Was going to post the link on your page but you are already here! 👀😀
@@---uc6mz I try to be all over the Catan section of TH-cam!!
😲 I'm speechless. This is beautiful
That is a lovely Catan game you made there enjoyed the video thank you
This was amazing, and also great editing of the video!
This is one of the most creative ideas i've found lately. Congrats!
I have yet to actually play this game but I've watched so many of these custom Catan board videos now 😄
Great job, I really like the ore and desert tiles!
This is my dream job. I would start with the Puerto Rico board game.
Puerto Rico?
@@Gowayijin Yes.
Nothing is stopping you from starting small. You already use youtube, upload a video!
Sick idea and great result
TH-cam: have you ever heard of Catan?
Me: No
TH-cam: Would you like to?
Me seeing this, understading nothing and finding it beautiful: 👁👄👁
its a good table game, you should try it (if u have friends or family)
@@Gabiman66 you can also play it in Tabletop Simulator with strangers if you have no friends or family :)
@@los_aerzt5242 yeah but simulators will never as good as originals
The beach looks so satisfying
Truly a masterpiece!! 👀😱😎
Now i need to see what you can do with Terraforming Mars!!💚🧡
That was my thought too, if only because I'm playing TM later today :p
Oh memories are coming back playing this game for hours with friends!
Nice work. Looks awesome 👏👏👏
I would, without a doubt, go into purchase a set like this with my brother and cousin.. totally worth it!
This is your FIRST video!? Damn man! Bravo. We can't wait to see what's next. Big ol' subscribe from us 👍
Thanks for the sub!
You did an awesome job my dear
This is beautiful work! I hope to see more board games or other geek related builds. DIY+geek=amazing!

It is not my cup of tee, but it looks beautiful and I like to see people building cool stuffs. here's a like and a subscribe.

A beautiful recreation of a classic game
Oh my, that is absolutely gorgeous!!
Omg this is amazing. I would definitely buy a set like this.
These are awesome!
So beautiful tiles.
I need a full set of Hive like this!
Came for the craftsmanship, stayed for the dangerously sick house track. Song title?
Sets like this could sell for a lot. You could make serious bank pretty quickly.
Nice Montage!
Wow! Nicely done!
That's awesome!
Thanks!
I would trade my future first born for this
It's beautiful. Wish I had one.
This is beyond amazing
Cool build! I love that game.
Wow, that's crazy good!
Never use gloves with any stationary equipment like a saw because they can snag or get caught. Otherwise, great looking board. Nice work!
DUDE ! You should totally sell these I'll buy one
Now time to do all the expansions.
One word "beautiful "💜😍😍
I can't wait for next video
beautiful work
This is beautiful
Nothing to say...just amazing
Awesome work!
Liked!
Subbed!
Commenting for algorithm!
Love2see more of your diy work!
Thanks for the sub!
Saw and gloves.
You mad man.
(really tho, thats dangerous)
Fecking nice work tho.
😁😀😀😁😁
Came here to say this. What the fuck is this guy doing wearing gloves and using a saw. That's like within the first 10 rules of "do not do"
@@mikekotek4648 He'll be fine until the saw grabs his glove then he will not be fine.
explain this to a noob? why would gloves get "grabbed by the saw"? your hand shouldnt be that close to the blade anyway

Wonderful work Kevlar! you need to work on the light and brightness in the edition.
Best pieces ever!
Subbed. I can say I saw this guy @ 30 subs. lmao. :)
So beautiful!
I had this game and it.s incredible.
I wish I had the time and skills to make something like this. As I certainly don't have the money which something like this would cost 😜

@@kevlardiy5287 Thank you!
That is stoopid cool
How do you get the resin to come out so clear? In my projects, they tend towards yellow, rather than clear. Would love your advice!
Thats because you use a cheap epoxy probably, all epoxy resins differ in what colour they have in the end. Many of them are slightly yellowish.
dude must really like settlers O_O.
should put mini magnets in the side to keep them togheter
How much did it cost you? EVERYTHING
about $300-400 not including the major power tools that I already had
I will pay you handsomely to build a cat an set like this for me
Sorry I just built this for me and my kids. I plan to keep it one of a kind 😃
Gorgeous
Wow! Awesome
Amazing!
All you needed now was to drill one hole in each tile enough like in a corner for mini dowels labeled with the numbers on the end so you can insert them so its flush with the top of the tiles.
I couldn't risk messing up the pieces
@@kevlardiy5287 fair.
beautiful
Love this! What did you use for the ore tiles? Is it crafting stone?
Its some kind of shiny mineral I purchased form eBay. Also has some black painted cement granules with silver glitter
daaaaaamn whats that song called??? I was vibin through the entire video!
what does the bucket like thing do to the resian?
I would like to do this in future, but I don't know from what he did it, what materials?
Stunning. Wonderful job.
Spectacular.
God... This is great!!
Having a pressure pot is pretty dope, huh.
pretty sure that was a vacuum chamber

Whoooouuuu!!!!!! wo gibt es denn das zu kaufen, sooo schön...;)
i thought this was a documentery about the making of Catan
How long did it took for you to make one field?
Just take my money already!!
