[@amiyoshi]

awesome. i am in the process of building as shogi board with red spruce. i have already made a western chess board with the same material about a year ago.

[@gokharol]

Ok I laughed when you said "It's so scary" :) OMG I really need this!

[@vittoriovuyet7827]

Thanks for these MAGNIFICENT contributions! I read that the classic shogiban measures are 11 sun x 12 sun ... PLEASE, what are the measures of the squares on the board?

[@HIDETCHI]

I depends on which part of Japan you're going to. You can find shogi boards everywhere in Japan.

[@HIDETCHI]

You're making a board yourself!? That's great. I guess you have a great skill.

[@vinniram]

I made a shogi board, but it was in the middle of English class and I used paper to make all the pieces and the board ^ ^ if only I could find a real board to buy in australia :P

[@HIDETCHI]

If you're looking for reasonable mass-produced one, you can find one at any department store in relatively large cities. If you're looking for traditional expensive ones, I think I can find a good store for you if you're going to major cities like Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, etc.

[@jjblades1010220]

Well that's just it, I haven't completely planned out the trip so I'm wondering if you have any suggestions

[@jjblades1010220]

Hey Hidetchi, I am travelling to Japan next March and i was wondering if you know of any locations where i could see a Professional Shogi match or maybe buy a traditional Shogi board straight from Japan. Any info is helpful. Thanks for the great videos.

[@jjblades1010220]

Well I know I am going to Tokyo at least, but i could go to Osaka or Nagoya if you recommend it. How expensive are traditional ones usually?

Go/weiqi board also prefer kaya woods. It also has blood puddle. :)

[@RichardTate1989]

Just curious, I purchased a shogi board but I dont know how big it will be in person. Can you guys help me out. What is the standard size? I am getting on that is 33cm x 36cm x 6cm. Is that the same size as the one in the video?

[@Gerstein1]

Do you know anywhere online where to find a floor-board with pieces and everything for less than 15000 yen?

[@Gerstein1]

What is ECO wood?

[@welingtonsa]

what tree is similar in Brazil to produce de board and pieces?

[@voiceofben7338]

okay. thank you. I was wondering why all the leg mounted boards I find are thousands of dollars.

[@SuperDen98]

How good a board should i actually get ?

[@hanzimaster]

Just a board would be 20000, and the pieces would be at least 10000, so there is really no place for everything for under 15000.
