I think I call these out in the video, like, 6" wide and 12.75" for the long edge, cut at 22.5 degrees for 8 segments. Could be a bit bigger if you want, since circular playing surface is what matters, I probably wouldn't go smaller though. Good luck!

Haha, well, I've been told my voice-over can be pretty monotone, even boring, so it's all good. ;)

I don't recall the exact size, something in the range of 2-3" radius. I tried to find a really shallow and large bit, which works pretty well for this purpose.

Thanks, we do love it

Ya, could create some amazing marquetry designs. I haven't had any issues with the rings, but agreed, they could be filled pretty simply. Thanks for the suggestions.

Thanks. Definitely is fun, hope you get to try it sometime

Many thanks!

Thanks

Thanks!

Something like 1/16 shallow, but has never affected gameplay that I've seen.

This is quite beautiful, the joints are fantastic and what amazing wood choice.

Awesome! Ya, any width board should work. Did you build Sled version 2.0? I plan to rebuild mine in that way, but regardless, good luck, would love to see how it works for ya.

Thanks. Two main reasons for using a sled rather than a chop saw. Reliability and safety. Cutting these small pieces on a chop saw is certainly possible, but small parts are easier to hold, have better support and can be cut more safely on a sled and setting up the sled means it's easy to repeat those cuts in the future. For a chop saw, you'd have to set up stop blocks or other methods for the length of cut each time you change the cut, the sled means it's all done the first time and then it's ready to use immediately for any future use. Hope that makes sense. Cheers!

Thanks

Thanks much!

Thanks Jessy, would definitely make for a nice window setting

A lot of great ideas in here, especially with all the clamping options. Thanks much!

Sure, thanks for asking.

You version really is stunning, congrats, that must have been a lot of work to retrofit the mask with all those details. Amazing work!

Awesome, hope it turns out great

Didn't you just finish this build, and you've got the instructable up already? This is fantastic, love the mix of different skills going on here. Amazing work, wish I could see it in person, thanks for sharing!

It's a few pounds, not sure, but enough to feel hefty.

That'd be fun for sure, thanks

Thank you.

Thanks!

Thanks much. I'm with you, making the most of our muggle existense.

Wow, that's very high praise, thanks much.

Thanks

Haha, right? The ever-growing wish list to build.

Thanks much!

Ah, good idea, I meant to do that long ago, but... life. Haha, will put them up and let you know.

That's a sweet modification, please, please share if you make a full print and mask, would so love to see it. Very cool.

A fantastic bit of engineering and very cool project. So impressed. As others have already echoed, I very much look forward to videos or images of work done with this. Congrats as well on the prize!

I enjoyed this video series when you first released it, very inspiring and thanks for sharing your process.

Sweet! He'll love it

For sure! I think it will be fun to try a few different combinations down the road, thanks.

Thanks much, I hope you do. Would love to see how it works out.

Haha, will take that as a straight up compliment, thanks!

What a very cool space! I can only guess it's a huge hit.

Absolutely fantastic, making it mechanized is just stunning. Congrats!

Thanks much all! I hope to do a Quidditch outfit someday, but for now, this will do.
