Hi! Thanks for the quick reply. If you were to leave 1/2 inch around the board, wouldn't you need 23 1/2 inch layouts? How long is the diameter of 2-inch nails? If you leave 1/2 an inch, wouldn't that be too wide and show part of the particle board? What would you use to make the two holes on the flipper and on the podium? I have a 3-hole and 1-hole puncher, but I believe the holes would be too big, and the flipper would be too loose, therefore, the flipper would not work properly. Thanks! :)
@whitismygurl07 I recommend nails only because they look better. To secure the particle board to the turntable you just need some masking tape. No screws, glue or anything too fancy.
Hi! Yes, good thinking! You do. Depending on the size, I would give yourself about 1/2 an inch of room all the way around (if you have a 24" board, you would probably make your layouts 23"). The best way to figure it out is to draw yourself pictures and play around with a test piece of wood to figure out what works out best for your board's size. It takes some trial and error, but once you figure it out, you have an awesome end product! :-)
You would need 23 inches actually. I made that mistake early on. When you center the layout on the board, there are two widths of 1/2" going all the way around the board, if that makes any sense. I'm not sure of the diameter of the nails, but they should be around an eighth of an inch or less. Don't worry about your board showing, if you paint it, it actually looks quite nice. And for punching holes, I have a really tiny hole punch that I used, but you can make do with a tack or a tiny nail.
Good news everyone! I just made my OWN Wheel Of Fortune wheel at the AIM Center in art class. Just a few finishing touches, and I'll be through in no time. I just made the wheel and painted the center circle neon green. The next step is pitting the tacks in, I don't have any nails, but I think the tacks will do just as good. After that, I'll be making the arrows for the wheel to make it spin, and that'll be the final step I'll be doing once I complete my Wheel Of Fortune project.
@TheGameShowFan1 By the way, which layout type do you prefer? (Interchangeable or Fixed) and can you also put spray lacquer on the interchangeable layouts?
If you were to make an interchangeable layout, would you have to resize your layout on the computer to be a little bit smaller so there is space around the particle board to fit the nails? How much space do you have to leave? How do you know if the wheel layout is going to fit? Thanks! :)
@narnia0100 I've never had that happen because the wood and paper seem to hold to each other. When you flip the layout, though, remember to realign the spaces with the nails.
It's kind of hard to explain... if you think about a square. You have a 2" square. (Draw this... it might make sense more.) Then you have a 1" square. If you put the smaller on top of the larger and center them, there's half an inch all the way around. Meaning you have to double the measurement to account for both sides.
hey, I was planning to do this as a project that my dad and I could work on, I want to make a 24", interchangeable wheel with the season 33 layout, but I can't find a layout without the wedges on the layout. if someone is willing to give me a picture of said layout, that would be very appreciative.
Hi there! I'm not exactly sure which piece you're looking for, but have you opened the link in the video description? There should be a lot of wheel resources there. :)
@whitismygurl07 Basically, I took it into Word, blew it up to 12" (or whatever size your layout needs to be to fit the particle board), and messed around with the text wrapping so the picture could move freely around the page. You have to move the layout to fit within the printing area, print it, and redo the process with a different part of the picture being printed. It's sort of like putting together a puzzle, unless you have access to a large printer.
andrew dwi pangestu it’s simple what you can do is get a clear piece of plastic, cut it into a square and trace a wedge, cut out the trace and on whatever material u want to use trace it again and cut it out .Laminate for dry erase or paint on the letters or numbers and use acrylic glitter paint for a special amount wedge
@wrbtrucking I actually found mine at Lowes. I have heard that the selection varies, though. If you have a Home Depot or Ace Hardware in your area, that's probably going to be your next best bet.
No. Photo paper is glossier than standard printer paper (aka copy paper). While printer paper will work if it's all you have, it won't look as 'shiny' as photo paper would nor will it be as sturdy as card stock would be.
Brilliant! your a legend for doing this, and the editing, music! Master class, master piece. Thanks.
this is the greatest tutorial i've ever watched
thanks for the video i might build one myself someday
Looks like a substitute to the mere spinner that comes with the Wheel of Fortune board games, starting with the Milton Bradley ones from 1975...
Wheel of Fortune Deluxe: “Am I a joke to you?!”
OMG thats exactly like the real one!! AWESOME!
I really respect this video . Very good. This is what everyone needed. Thanks !!!!
love the tutorial!!! quick question, how did you print your wedges for both fixed and the other layouts? thank you!
This is incredible!
what do i do if i have a black and white printer only
What would spray lacquer do for the wheel layout once it's glued onto a particle board?
I guess make it shiny? No clue tbh
how did you get the wedges(the 1 million, the mystery wedges, etc..) to stay in place on your wheel?
Please make a new link on the wheel layouts, wedges, and arrow templates the original link is broken
Thank you for letting me know! I have just updated the link for you: drive.google.com/file/d/1cnd1eB3EQMQe3LKPUr55PMTDKIGiYdoB/view?usp=sharing
I hope your doing well…
Where’s the free play wedge?
Where did you find the clean 2006 theme song from wheel
Can you also make a jackpot space the same size on all the other wedges, and a free play wedge?
Can I use cardboard in place of particle board
Where did you get the turn table? Thanks

@whitismygurl07 Yes. If your wheel is that big, you're probably going to have to print one or two wedges on a page.
Can this be used with a 28" layout? I'm probably getting a 30" particle board.
You would need 23 inches actually. I made that mistake early on. When you center the layout on the board, there are two widths of 1/2" going all the way around the board, if that makes any sense.

@narnia0100 No problem! I'm so glad you like it :)

@ANDYxHAMILL I use it on the floor. I would like to hang it on a wall, but no spinning mechanism works well vertically.

Is it possible to build a puzzleboard too? It may be a little harder tough.
Use a dry erase board.
The 72 space pie chart will definitely work for a super wheel of fortune.
Super Wheel®️ does NOT exist!
Will the layout board move/shift when you flip it and put it down on the wheel/spin the wheel? Example: 1:07
@narnia0100 I've never had that happen because the wood and paper seem to hold to each other. When you flip the layout, though, remember to realign the spaces with the nails.
How much would you charge me to build me an 18 inch Wheel of Fortune Wheel? I’m willing to pay
trying to make my own at the moment, mostly based off this. do you have a source for the 72 section template for the nails?
I just made a pie chart in Pages (you can do it in Word or a lot of other programs, too). The template is in the PDF in the video's description. :)
Thanks for the quick reply again!
What do you mean by the "two widths of the 1/2" going all the way around the board"?
Thanks! :)
It's kind of hard to explain... if you think about a square. You have a 2" square. (Draw this... it might make sense more.) Then you have a 1" square. If you put the smaller on top of the larger and center them, there's half an inch all the way around. Meaning you have to double the measurement to account for both sides.
This is perfect! Thank you! :D
What kind of paper I should print? How do I print these?
They can be as long or as short as you want them to be. I used some that were about 1.5-2 inches long (I forget how long exactly they were.)
@qwerty23495 I don't at the moment... what format were you looking for?
hey, I was planning to do this as a project that my dad and I could work on, I want to make a 24", interchangeable wheel with the season 33 layout, but I can't find a layout without the wedges on the layout. if someone is willing to give me a picture of said layout, that would be very appreciative.
Hi there! I'm not exactly sure which piece you're looking for, but have you opened the link in the video description? There should be a lot of wheel resources there. :)
+TheGameShowFan1 sorry, I was looking for the current wheel layout without the wedges as part of the layout.
+BarrelBrosGaming Try www.buyavowelboards.com. They have season 33 layout wedges you can print off.
how do you get it to stand up?
this is nice i want all the wedges

I just made my wheel
How to make this wedges please..

how do you let the wHeel stay in place?
nothing special, just gravity. usually the turntables are made of something that doesn't move around. :)
@rod1014 That's the way it actually is, so IDK why the uploaded used the brownish color over green.
Do you have the kit in any other format besides PDF?
The wheel of fortune theme song year is 1983-1989
Thanks, Captain Obvious. 🧑✈️🙄
We used this in January 14 2013 to make a wheel of fortune wheel using a fixed layout 18 inches
Love hearing this! So glad it helped. :)
Tysm!!
Were are your house
Do you have a new version of the Wheel available for printing?
Hi! I don't have any layout more recent than the one in the PDF, I'm sorry!
+TheGameShowFan1 Are you planning on making a new version of the Wheel available?
+Bryan Kevin Jimena I don't have any plans to anytime soon, so sorry to disappoint. 😢
@@TheGameShowFan1 why did you leave without telling us?
Hi i just wanted to ask what material is the board made out of?
Cardboard
And something from where they used for cake
I'm currently making one thats 48 inches wide! :-D
WOW! HOLY S***
Go BIG or go home, right? ;-)
Thats The Spirit!
J Miller gsg
cool
I already click on the link what should I do next
Is photo paper printer paper?
R.I.P The Gameshowfan1
No. Photo paper is glossier than standard printer paper (aka copy paper). While printer paper will work if it's all you have, it won't look as 'shiny' as photo paper would nor will it be as sturdy as card stock would be.
@paranormalchick1 I used duct tape. I'm sure there are better ways to attach the two though.
Why did you stop making videos without telling anybody?
@whitismygurl07 You are so welcome! My day was just made hearing that! I'm glad this video he
See the link in the description :-)
yo ya estoy echo polvo no gracias
TOTAL AWESOME SAUCE! CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT THEY WANT FOR A 'READY MADE' WHEEL. THANK YOU SO MUCH! WILL BE BACK IF PROBS TO SOLV!! :)
will you make me one, i will buy it.
But I want to see you make.
My wheel need a bigger wheel
