I cant even imagine how long this must have taken, in absolutely speechless. O just finished printing and painting my own board and it's nowhere near as cool as this one. Bravo 👏
In fairness I'm conflicted. I liked the whole work up to a certain point. I wouldn't have gone for the same choices specially on the paint part. It surely gave a new take on how to build a more fancier board and I loved the organization tools in the end.
This is really great. I have a couple of Glowforges, and I've struggled with the requisite Catan Board and the lengthy engrave that many of the pieces have required. I'm just getting into resin, so this honestly looks like the ideal project to take on. I also really like all of your other projects. Fantastic job!
Wow, this is incredibly innovative! I've seen LOTS of boards for sale on Etsy, but this pulls it all together, including many 1sts and awesome esthetics in the design! Now I'm looking at laser engravers that can cut 2mm so I can make one!
My family made a custom Catan board by purchasing some wooden templates, painting the tiles, and then putting some finisher on top and using the brush to texture the finisher and make it stick up more in certain patterns based on the tile. Not as cool as this, but it was still fairly cool.
one of our patreon members actually made an expansion for this. it turned out really really good. I only did a 4 person because i wanted it really to be more of an art piece on the wall and i like symmetry lol
Looking into laser cutters, I have never wanted a cricut... That is until 10 minutes ago. I wonder if this is why X Tool came out with there M1🤔 I wonder if it would replace both these machines.
In my experience a machine that does two things does neither well... I have not seen or used an x tool but I have yet to see something work well like that
@@WhenGeeksCraft that is an extremely good point. and usually I would say that is the case. A lot of people have had great success with the CNC / Diode lasers though... Just maybe ... A CO2/knife cutter could change the game 🤔
Such a GREAT project!! The final product looks beautiful and so clean! Out of curiosity, where did you get that silicone mat? I'd love to use that for my own resin projects!
Wow! Super rad. I've remade a few games with my GF that needed to be done better (Tsuro) or I didn't want to pay for (Can't Stop) -- but never to this level. :)
Love this!! I have a few (slightly random) questions: 1 is there a technique to using pipettes with resin? I can’t get enough suction to get a nice slurp? 2 are there 2 player rules for Catan? Or was that just for the video? 3 how long did you spend making resource cards? Those look amazing but I don’t think I would have had the patience. 4 does a glowforge tube move with the gantry? 5 how the heck was I not subscribed before now? I should rectify that!
1. Warm resin is runnier. If you look you can see that I also let them fill as I use another color. I typically do that because they fill slowly lol. 2. We have a homebrew/modified two player. Basically requires more points to win to make it not go by so quickly and that trading is encouraging more early in the game. 3. For....ev....er. the weeding took over an hour per resource cut time was about 35 minutes per sheet and the transferring was ANNOYING. Next board game I will order the cards from a vendor with a custom design. 4. Yea!! It's on the gantry and just kinda weasels around with the laser head lol 5. I don't have an answer for that but I'm glad you fixed it!
Just discovered this channel and have watched several videos already, I love your projects! I'm curious to know if you designed all the resources tiles cut on the Glowforge yourself, and if so, what design software do you use? The same question goes for the character cut outs on the Age of Calamity piece...major kudos to you if you designed all those individual Zelda characters yourself! I can't wait to watch this channel grow.
Thank you! I designed all the catan rules myself using inkscape, a free illustrator alternative. Age of calamity characters are straight out of the games load screen.
When I saw this video while scrolling through UA-cam, the “and resin” part of the title was cut off so I thought you were making a house-rule version of Catan that involved lasers. I’m disappointed now.
@@WhenGeeksCraft I'm trying to make custom sleeves for MTG! Haha It really felt like it took ages to make all cards. Regardless, awesome work! Congrats
It would have been so cool, if everything could just stick on it with magnets (figurines and little pockets for cards ((or make stones instead of the item cards)) ) so you could play it on the wall when you walk past it... anyone gets my idea? Anyways this looks super awesome 👏 great wort
If you made the road areas and the city circles with metal pieces you totally could. Like each hexagon has notches where the corners are and a little rectangle cut out for where the road would be.
@@WhenGeeksCraft so cool! Id love to have that in my house. But as you said you dont sell them (what i can totally understand for it took wayyyy too long😂) i guess ill have to do one myself... when i live alone... and have the tools... and the time... haha
@@WhenGeeksCraft ... totally understandable - but ... is it possible to get the layouts so someone can send them to a cutter service (I will not buy such a machine, I think) and can make his way from there? I absolutely love what you did there - I want to make one for myself but more like a minature and more woodworking. But after seeing this I think it is combiningable (sorry for my english - I am from germany ;-) ) GREAT job, really great job there!
We have all our files on patreon. I have had patreon members order these our stuff a laser cutting service multiple times. I would recommend doing that
Yup! they are just plain playing cards. Sleeves seem like over kill lol i honestly may get this card set printed because I wasnt SOLD on the vinyl. They looks really nice for now though.
Me personally I don't like the graphics much. Also the metallic color epoxy doesn't correlate with the Catan theme much. But hey - you did something better than some stupid tiktok dance video, so I pressed the Like button! :)
im not to fond of the cards now that i have had them for a while. i would like to order custom cards printed to be honest. the board still is the best though
That is definitely an option. I was drawn towards cards mainly because you dont want the other players to know whats in your deck. Chips sound cool but they take up more space and would be hard to hold on to.
Hooollyy shit this video is so slow. Timelapse and Montage vids need to be faster. Even at 2x speed I was bored. Nice job stretching it to 10 minutes. Smh

What do you call that thin plywood?🙏😊
The spirits of all the players who have ever played this game are standing in a wheat field..saluting you.
I'm speechless, really, this is another level of talent, the hexes, the cards, the sea pieces, just amazing!
Thanks!!
i totally read when GREEKS craft, and was instantly super intrigued
Hahhaha I get that a lot
This is a dream come true for every Catan fan. Really appreciate your work.
Thank you!
This is the nerdiest....most wonderful thing....I love it! I want one!!
Easy to see why this is a top video for you. The growth in your videography from your first video to this one is really impressive
Thanks a ton!
I've watched so many of your videos and somehow haven't seen this one. This was awesome
Omg! You gotta love UA-cam ability to never notify subs about video.
I cant even imagine how long this must have taken, in absolutely speechless. O just finished printing and painting my own board and it's nowhere near as cool as this one. Bravo 👏
When I see it hanging on the wall...this makes me want to weep for...its beauty!
Thanksss ☺️
Love the idea of hanging it up as art!
That was a very last second idea and I'm so happy I did it
That is absolutely beautiful,, the natural woods combined with the resin just make it so how you lookatable..
Thanks so much 😊
Such craftsmanship
So beautiful. If only my family enjoyed playing this game with me. *sigh*
I feel you.
Wow! Y’all are just super talented. I really enjoyed watching this project come to life. I’ve never played that game but now I want to.
Thank you so much! its super fun!
In fairness I'm conflicted. I liked the whole work up to a certain point. I wouldn't have gone for the same choices specially on the paint part. It surely gave a new take on how to build a more fancier board and I loved the organization tools in the end.
wow this is soo cool and really pretty!
Thank you!
Obsessed with this! Well done!!! I wish I had the foresight to do this when I had such tools at my disposal.
Wow! This is amazing! I would totally buy this, you should sell them. But yeah I would need a 6 person expansion
i refuse to sell these lol it took a solid month to make one hahahaha
So satisfying! I love it!
Thank you!
I absolutely love this! You did a fantastic job and your crafting skills are at an entirely other level!
Thank you 😊
Final product looks really beautiful. I would love to see more about how you made those cards, that looked really interesting.
Good to know! Lots of cricut cutting and weeding, but next time I'll add way more info on the cricut process
Wow 👏 looks awesome
Thank you!!!
This is really great. I have a couple of Glowforges, and I've struggled with the requisite Catan Board and the lengthy engrave that many of the pieces have required. I'm just getting into resin, so this honestly looks like the ideal project to take on. I also really like all of your other projects. Fantastic job!
Thank you!!! I always try to look for ways. I can cut instead of engrave because it just saves so much time lol
Beyond amazing, just like everything you all do.
Thank you!!! We are glad you keep coming back to check out our projects :)
Wow, this is incredibly innovative! I've seen LOTS of boards for sale on Etsy, but this pulls it all together, including many 1sts and awesome esthetics in the design! Now I'm looking at laser engravers that can cut 2mm so I can make one!
Best of luck! We used a glowforge
Great project
Wow what a wonderful job, you got a new subscriber, I'd love to have oa catan like that
Thank you so much and welcome
The original German version has individual hex tiles for the water. This way the ports are in a different orientation and position every time.
that would of been a cool way to do it. i wonder why they dont sell the game like that now?
My family made a custom Catan board by purchasing some wooden templates, painting the tiles, and then putting some finisher on top and using the brush to texture the finisher and make it stick up more in certain patterns based on the tile.
Not as cool as this, but it was still fairly cool.
Chilly The Ice Cucumber I would love to see a photo if you have a link to share!
When Geeks Craft - I unfortunately don’t, but I hope my insufficient details were enough to paint a vague somewhat accurate picture inside your head.
😍 that is awesome! 😂 i want this!
I’d love to see a 6 player version of this with water hexes. Perhaps make the water like a sandy coastline with ports etched into the board.
one of our patreon members actually made an expansion for this. it turned out really really good. I only did a 4 person because i wanted it really to be more of an art piece on the wall and i like symmetry lol
Tremendooooooooooooooooo geniusssssssssssssssssss increibleeeeeeeeeeeee espectacular laburo !
Thank you!!
This is fantastic!
congrats!
This is absolutely amazing. This is the easiest subscribe that I've had in forever. Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you!!!
This is great. I loved it.
Thank you! I like it as well!
Woah! That is some mind-blowingly nice work you've created there!! :O Seriously beautiful. You guys should be proud. Thanks for sharing! :)
That was amazing!
I'm glad you liked it!
Fantastic build!!
Glad you liked it! thank you!!!
Beautiful 🤩
I'm glad you like it :)
How is this not-copyrighted music so freaking SICK
I pay monthly for a service that gives me good music
Beautiful work!
Thank you very much!
i love it. good work!
Thank you!!
This is a good video
I agree
Wooow nice
Thank you :)

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE A CATAN BOARD LIKE THAT FOR ME!! TAKE MY MONEY!!!!
I'm glad you like it but I will not make another. It took like a month hahhah
Wow! Super rad. I've remade a few games with my GF that needed to be done better (Tsuro) or I didn't want to pay for (Can't Stop) -- but never to this level. :)
All you gotta do is cut a few extra holes for resin 🤣
I love the board. It looks beautiful, but it is called ore not stone
We call it stone where so house rules I guess
excuse my language but this is fucking awesome
Thank you;
Looks good but have seen some in 3d they were great
what is even this game and how you play it? I got so curious, I'll be searching now
Omg. Itu sangat keren.
What do you call that thin plywood?🙏😊
Single sided MDF veneer plywood. There are links in the description!
@@WhenGeeksCraft thank you so much 🥰😘 hope you like my like too😁
Love this!!

3 how long did you spend making resource cards? Those look amazing but I don’t think I would have had the patience.

4. Yea!! It's on the gantry and just kinda weasels around with the laser head lol
5. I don't have an answer for that but I'm glad you fixed it!
I was panicking about ports til the end. Why not magnetize the ports as well?
Because magnetizing was an afterthought really
I still have no idea how to play this, but it looks great! SEND IT!!
When the world opens back up we will have to visit with each other and give it a play
Would you happen to have the cut file you used?
It's available on our patreon for personal use only
I want buy it

When hanging on the wall, how much does it weigh?
Like 5 lbs ish
@@WhenGeeksCraft oh that's not too bad - with all the metal and magnet material I thought it'd weigh more. :-)
I know! But it's surprisingly not that heavy. I had just a tack in the wall and that held it fine
Whats the musicc?
What is this process you used to make the cards?
Cricut vinyl! It took forever and I would not recommend this. I should of ordered custom card honestly
@@WhenGeeksCraft I'm trying to make custom sleeves for MTG! Haha
It really felt like it took ages to make all cards. Regardless, awesome work! Congrats
That's why I wouldn't recommend it lol it took 4 solid days just to make those.
Music at 2:24?
Would you guys ever sell the 3d printed parts? I don’t have a machine for that yet.
We aren't really set up to do that. But there are many places online that will!
You had me at lasers!
Pew pew!!

Am I first?!? Woohoo! Notification squad!
WOOHOO!! Im glad I got your attention!
I don't know how I feel about the custom roads, settlements/cities. I love the rest to death tho

Are the cards standard playing card size? I recommend sleeves to protect them and keep them clean.
Yup! they are just plain playing cards. Sleeves seem like over kill lol i honestly may get this card set printed because I wasnt SOLD on the vinyl. They looks really nice for now though.
@@WhenGeeksCraft fair enough. Take it from a magic player tho, sleeves go a long way to keeping them clean
