Amazing work. :applaud: How are you planning to decorate the sides? Any artwork in mind or maybe some woodgrain vinyl? |

Seeing fresh new skilled woodworking in the projects threads is just really nice. The only other Skeeball build that I know of is thatpurplestuff's, if wasn't for that I wouldn't even know what Skeeball was. Great work. :cheers: |

I'm the same - had no idea what Skeeball was - had to watch a video :) Looking like a really clean and sturdy build so far :cheers: |

Might try a skeeball logo or something on the side though to make it look a little less plain. |

Decided to redo the sides of the scoring area, made the top part too large and didn't like the sharp angle as a real skeeball game has curves, had to design the curve and use my way too dull flush trim bit which caused some burning but game out pretty good. Still need to sand them smooth and looks much more like the real thing. Also cut the circles out for the scoring area lighting as well as installed the red beacon on top of the game. Found some spare red oak that i used for a different project and made them the side supports to hold up the scoring ring backboard. Put it next to the lane and was glad to see the beacon is still below the joists in the basement, yay for tall ceilings. Tracked down some more plastic rail covers including the ticket dispenser cover which is awesome, now to work on the ball return under the scoring rings and work on the ramp. |
