  • Shut the box is kind of a unique tabletop game that is a lot of fun and a great conversation piece to keep on the coffee table. It may look a little complicated, but without any definite plans, I was able to complete the project from start to finish, in one day.
    Let me know what you think of this game, and if you have any ideas for any other unique tabletop games, I'd love to hear them.
    Thanks for watching!!

    Very nicely done. I like the contrast of the wood color too.

      Thank you! After playing a bit, my wife would like me to felt the center area. She says it's too loud.

    I like the contrasting woods as well, but for noise abatement, you might consider some cork board...

    This came out really awesome! Love the hammer you use :) And something I think would look really awesome is wood burnt numbers :) It is still "hand drawn". But this came out amazing! (PS- never heard of this game before honestly)

    • @boydstongrove
      @boydstongrove  5 місяців тому

      I had never heard of the game until last week when I saw it in a store. When I looked it up, it's everywhere, so I guess I don't get out enough, haha. I was going to wood burn the numbers on but I thought I could make them neater with the marker, I was wrong, lol. Thanks for watching!

    My German foreign exchange student says definitely don't add felt because it's beautiful how it is. My kids agree. I wonder if "flocking" like what you see in bandsaw boxes would be a good option? I like the natural appearance you've achieved.

    • @boydstongrove
      @boydstongrove  5 місяців тому +1

      Thanks! As much as I love the natural look, my wife voted for felt. I've never tried flocking, I may have to give it a go on a future project. Thanks for watching!

    great idea . one question though if you get down to having only the 1 left, how can you win rolling 2 dice?

    • @markkline5660
      @markkline5660 5 місяців тому

      Once you have the numbers 6 and below you only roll 1 die

    Great game but with 2 dice how do you roll a 1? Maybe start the tiles at 2?

    • @boydstongrove
      @boydstongrove  5 місяців тому +1

      When I play, I usually use the one with a combination of the tiles to equal the number on the dice. 110 on the dice could be the 1 and 9 tiles, so on and so forth. Thanks for watching!
