We DIY a board game table using parts from Ikea! And other places! We buy the $100 Ingo table from Ikea, which is technically a kids table, and make a bunch of cuts to create the board game recessed arena surface that can hold Tabletop Chits and cards. We buy some particle board from Ikea, and hardware is from Ikea and Ace Hardware! This entire process took about 2.5 days to woodwork with 1.5 people, but the final product has African Mahogany rails and seats 4. Neoprene, cupholders, and other accessories could be on the way. We fit Hellapagos, Proliferation, and Ticket to Ride USA no problem, and we’re sure Catan could easily fit. However, some of the bigger games on BGG may not fit, like Gloomhaven, Twilight Imperium 4, or Star Wars Rebellion. Although this process is inexpensive, we ran into many issues along the way, so see how Pranav gets us out of the messes!
