i Made A Epic Hidden Wargaming Gaming Table

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Can't wait to do this myself! This is way better than just showing the board on the wall.

[@matthewrpenny1]

Luke: "josh, film me taking the poster out the tube" Josh: "Right" Luke: " keep it simple, nothing fancy" Josh: "OK" Also Josh: "siri, play acid house rave bangra" Seriously though great idea, makes me wish I still had my epic stuff!

[@ThePickleJar]

Haha, I understood the assignment

[@Bobrzy_kleptoman]

why not just a bigger poster?

[@GoobertownHobbies]

this is a great idea! it looks wonderful and it's as achievable to anybody as possible!

[@Nosferatuklown]

I'm an apartment dweller and space is a premium, I'll be doing this ASAP - Thank you for the idea!! Print off some custom posters representing the board...Avengers Poster for Crisis Protocol, Papa Nurgle for a Plague board, and a my little pony poster for a Custodian board

[@JenniferKitzman]

Came for the poster rave, stayed for the gaming table advice.

[@malkcontent]

This is genius. Really impressed with how you like to help people who don’t have massive spaces or cash get something good to play with.

[@XYZdude00]

Honestly the thing I'm impressed the most with is your creativity. You keep releasing videos that are not only amazing, but also make me want to go out and try it myself

[@murray1867]

Damn, I loved that edit when you were removing the poster. Wish it was longer, I was jamming out while watching this and painting!

[@ianshaliczer]

“Bollywood Music Terrain Tutorial” was not a genre I knew I needed in my life, but here we are…

[@SonofRuss95]

Guy from Midwinter now has his next album theme. 😂

[@RPRsChannel]

*_Ahh, yes, get the little one working on your terrain!_*

[@TheDavidMoloney]

This is such a boss idea, can't wait to see a follow up with ideas on how to link multiple ones, great way to have gaming boards that don't piss off the missus

[@tuvaaq]

Drew up plans recently for a similar solution, a 6x4 wall art frame that will use modular 1x1 gaming tiles hanging on french cleats when not in use.

[@theDexMcHenry]

Love it. Inspired! Now to fit several together...

[@BrotherMatus]

Lol, someone was a bit bored when editing 😂

[@artistpoet5253]

This is genius, man! A few years ago I had a pair of 3'x4' boards that I used for a full up 4'x6' and stored them by just tossing them up on some milk crates to serve as a table for other hobbies and jobs but they were flat and boring when out for some games. This idea of yours has a load of potential and while our walls are already crowded with my art, I bet I could sneak a battle field or two in there eventually.

[@jacobsteeley3909]

Luke you did not need to go that hard with the beat/intro, but you did and I’m here for it

[@ThePickleJar]

Don’t give him the credit, that was all me 😅

[@jacobsteeley3909]

@@ThePickleJar well then bravo, can’t wait to see more

[@euansmith3699]

The level of over-production on the start to this video really cracked me up 🤣 That's a great looking game board.

[@sub39h]

The start was mental haha! Such an awesome idea though, thank you.

[@thetowerkeeper]

You went very techno-psychedelic at the start....panicked about the mushrooms I had for tea!!

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

I think this is fantastic. I look forward to seeing more.

[@fatherofhellions]

Read the comments while the adds was playing. Not dissapointed by the editing 😂

[@ThePickleJar]

😘

[@saulwiscovich3920]

This was amazing. One side decorative poster or collection of family pictures. Other side kick ass wargaming terrain ready to use.

[@HappyHappyJoyJoy658]

"Look at my board, my board is amazing... " 👍

[@ashbickley]

I'm only 2 minutes into the video and the editing has completely blown my mind!

[@teh_sid]

I feel like Josh is just taking the piss out of you all the time and I'm here for it.

[@robertevans3173]

This is a great idea. I can't wait to see where you go with it.

[@Sangrell]

Awesome idea! Especially good for small spaces like my apparent… that way my partner may be happier as my gaming supplies will be more camouflaged and easier to put away and store without being damaged or taking up as much space. Thanks so much for the suggestion and video!!!

[@ronnocrd]

This is genius Luke, I have never been lucky enough to have an abundance of space and this is the type of thinking that gives me solutions.

[@Caladors]

1:04 this is fuckin spastic... I love it

[@GDSMiniatures]

This is awesome, i'm going to make a bloodbowl pitch this way

[@danielhackett893]

Luke, this is brilliant!!! Stealth gaming boards... It could trigger a surge in purchases of frames and gaming-themed posters. Talking of which, perhaps you should include some affiliate links to providers of aforementioned posters?

[@matthewrpenny1]

That's a great idea, I have some nice 40k prints in frames around my office (under the stairs) but a single A2 or A1 might look much better!

[@AVspectre]

For those who also collect board games, Board Game Geek’s shop (online) has different posters with art representing different games.

[@AI40K]

Couldn't stop laughing with the editing. Amazing job XD

[@OldZean]

im in tears ^^

[@ThePickleJar]

😘😘🥰

[@andygorman858]

My god, I have just replayed the intro to this vid for the 10th time….that were brill! Great idea using the larger picture frame as well…..I have bugger all space in my gaming area and this is just what I was after…..thank you for the inspiration and really looking forward to the next one!!

[@ElvesofZion]

I've been planning to do a frozen lake board, this might be a perfect way to do it

[@leeramsden3095]

yes! that intro was unexpected sheer class! Couple that with a random naked brother and we are in tears man. Very good. 😂

[@hazemangames]

I built a modular gaming table, with a dice try section on the side, all lined with lovely felt. Left it in the workshop over the winter, bugs ate the fabric ;_; This has inspired me to redo it. Cheers mate, good effort!

[@christophercassidy-schroed9169]

If I had some pingas I could just put this on repeat and have a radical day!

[@artemispender8083]

The techno rave with Luke was a nice touch. lol

[@quid8031]

this is a great idea, for me this is one of your best videos, thanks for the time and effort! would love to see how far you can take this, maybe even make a full board for 40k

[@crazy3M411]

This is a very cool concept. I like that you can hang it on the wall for storage.

[@RavenMinis]

this editing is on point mate! Can't wait to give this a try!

[@blacktemplar5970]

That is a fantastic idea ....really dig the artwork too...always loved that art

[@bionicgeekgrrl]

A great idea. Look forward to seeing how you develop it. My current plans for gaming boards is to use a couple of laser cut model railway boards I got for a project that has been paused due to moving, being 3x2ft a couple should be sufficient and they're very light and don't need a table (which is handy as we currently have no dining table!) As I have trestles for them, but integrated legs will probably happen at some point. Storage is still something to figure out though, but a few options are possible.

[@DafyddRoche]

JOsh clearly had too much fun editing this.

[@ThePickleJar]

True story

[@TrasherIV]

I've been thinking of getting back into wargaming, and a colleague has been urging me to play Bloodbowl with him, this might me a great idea for the board!

[@TimPoultney]

Ah, paid the editor in cocaine this time I see!

[@Ayns.L14A]

Cheers Luke genius idea mate.

[@converseroo101]

Great idea. Only downside I see if you are gonna combine boards where the frame is higher than the board. I guess what you could do is make the board flush with the frame and maybe have some thin bits of mdf to Velcro onto the frame edges or just the corners to keep it off the wall when you have it hung up? Would be better for playing across 2 or 4 combined. you still have the problem of basically having the frame make a grid running through the board

[@Roll1ToExplode]

I'm super limited on space but I could probably hang 2 or 3 of these around the office so I might actually be able to have a board : D Great video!

[@christopherjones8558]

I have just moved house… I am eyeballing the empty walls with potential gleaming in my eyes😎

[@benjaminjack867]

This is brilliant

[@BluntedBaboon]

Cool idea. A deeper frame could provide you the ability for more depth for obstacles and statics.

[@BPCustomCreations]

Such a great idea! I wonder about the weight and mounting methods

[@TheHobbyCorner]

1 minute in and the neighbours can hear me cracking up 🤣 great edit Mr Pickle! And great idea Mr Luke 🤘😎🔥

[@kelvingriffiths6017]

Awesome idea that I will definitely be stealing. Even would say it's not rough at all, looks good for its purpose mate.

[@y-adouradou446]

Holy shiiiiiii* I LOVED the editing mate! That was awesome. And the concept is awesome too, but i NEEDED to talk about that editing, i can rewatch it 10 times in a row

[@jamesdunn581]

Phenomenal idea. Thanks for coming up with this. Deff. going to give this a try.

[@xcomeruinx]

Amazing idea, didnt expect to start cutting shapes mid way through brekky tho.

[@KnarbMakes]

Hey, theres nothing wrong with mounting some dirt on the wall (as someone that has hung up dirt on the wall)

[@12pigeons-in-a-trench-coat]

nice, practical idea, i dig it!

[@babadookTV]

lol the first 2 minutes of this video are mental

[@GeeKAbaddon]

That whole video is fantastic even as proof of concept. I'm.desperate for boards at home but lack space...never thought pictured on walls could double up that way! That is proper hellish and can't wait to see future developments of it!

[@umairav255]

Great idea! Does the foam just sit on top of the picture or is there something in between?

[@PewpewFiah]

@@GeekGamingScenics No glue or caulk or anything to stick it down to the backing? That's wild if so

[@duncansBoB]

Love it! Content, creativity, practicality (and a damn-fine edit Mr P!). Could you not have thought of this 18 months ago? I have a lot more wall space....

[@ThePickleJar]

Cheers dude!

[@RobertMorrisjrBog]

Excellent! I'm going to put this in my "To do" list!

[@matthewbull3688]

This is BRILLIANT!! I'd definitely be interested on how you'd do it for a 4x6 table. May need removal stand off's so you can sit proud of the frame.

[@DaveVanDam84]

Cool idea, hope you do more with this 👍

[@nazteeb]

Love this vid! Awesome idea, build and just love the bloopers etc.

[@86abaile]

I think it's a great idea. Do 4 of them and you can put together a 6x4 table.

[@patluna3251]

I'm worried how to connect those four to not see the connection. Hmmm

[@PhanthomMaster]

This is an awesome idea!

[@MSPaints]

Josh can you make me unrolling this poster more interesting? 'HOLD MY NULN OIL'

[@djm.o.d.1]

that poster was the image on the box of the 3rd edition [and the book I think] and got me into 40k amazing work as always man

[@Weez-2_The-Beez]

Looks great Luke! I personally don’t care if people don’t like my wall hangers lol but similarly I found at either Michaels or Hobby Lobby (can’t remember which one) some cork board wall hangers in both 2x3 and 4x4. Unfortunately at the time I wasn’t able to purchase either of them but I had a similar idea to create a small gaming table using both sides to create different types of ground cover on each side.

[@kookieslayer]

That's an amazing idea!

[@americonabroad]

This is brilliant! I live in Taipei (super densely populated) and the girlfriend is a good sport, but isn't always thrilled to share space with my hobbying. This is the perfect blend of form and function and she gave me the ok to add one of these baddies to the wall!

[@CatastrophicNickName]

Now combine marco frisonis magnetic table + your doublesided frame = perfection

[@AnExtrovertPaints]

Great video! Also glad to see I'm not the only KZbinr who has to do like two dozen takes or more to get it right!

[@richardevans3596]

I did something similar a few years ago by making a custom headboard with a 5x4 board on the reverse side. I also got an ottoman bed that lifts up to store all the scenery in. But I love the idea of a picture board, but I would definitely need a 6x4…

[@gergotothmihaly2307]

"...which is far more attractive than looking at static grass and dirt, innit?" - respectfully disagree ;) It would be cool to see how the board side looked like on the wall, especially with some (magnetised?) 15mm terrain and minis. "Oh, yeah, love love love" :D

[@jakecrowe3797]

Would love to see how you put two of those together. Awesome idea!

[@Sichuanbeef]

I like this concept, especially as an apartment dweller.

[@samuelconsolatti-welch5876]

I am at 1 minute and 17 seconds and this is already the best video I have watched all week

[@leighhadley8040]

Now this a brilliant idea......RANGERS OF SHADOW DEEP a perfect solution...cheers mate i wonder could just glue a game mat in it..your a bloody genius.

[@thattabletopguy]

I'm looking forward to trying this out for a Rivenstone table! Also, love the camera work in this video - every frame is so crisp and clean!

[@shayulghul]

Such a great idea

[@Bluecho4]

Personally, I think a set of Necromunda style hive floor - a grid of metal sheets and cracking concrete and grates and drains and bundles of cables, etc - could work unto itself as well decoration. Call it Modern Art.

[@inakue]

Hey Luke! If you made one of the frame's side removable (with magnets, for example), then you could join to pieces together pretty smoothly. That way, you would't have to connect both pieces in a way that can look artificial (hills or field leveling...). Hope it is useful!

[@swornbrother88]

Great idea but I have had no luck finding those foam boards in the states. Hopefully one day I will stumble upon them.

[@deevad8119]

Lovely. Great idea. I need to try that.

[@BigMekDanskull]

Love this kind of innovation! Fantastic vid, and brilliant artwork reveal sequence

[@julianwarren7770]

I’ve totally been looking for something like this!!!

[@geekfreak69]

Excellent idea Luke thanks

[@loupiscanis9449]

Cushty idea , nice one . Cheers Luke , ~Luv~Luv~Luv~ 🐺

[@leggi001]

Luke, could I ask, how many bags of base ready you used on this, I’ve got a tiny flat and this would be perfect. As you say, half a standard 6 by 4 board, so I can shrink my 28mm ancients sword and spear games down to 15’s, that would fit on my coffee table. Thank you fr all your amazing work.

[@xPiggsyx]

This is amazing, thx for the idea. Only thing that worries me though, isnt the base floor isolation mat you used a bit too wobbly? Will the Minis have a good stand on it ? Maybe a thin plate of polystyrene or something would work as well. Im excited to see where you can take these Frame-Game Tables though.

[@DingoPaints]

Great idea... I'm going to give it a go myself...

[@nickstanaway4872]

Like, I'd never would have thought of this, better get to ikea quick before they sell out

[@NeoByteNL]

Oh wow this looks actually pretty cool.

[@HeadCannonPrime]

What an amazing concept. does all the stuff added to the back make it hard to hang?

[@HeadCannonPrime]

@@GeekGamingScenics One other concern. Since those frames are made with pressed wood, I'm worried that all the water based stuff and the weight might cause the frame to sag over time.

[@GoldenRogueMinis]

Amazing idea dude!!! I think I might have a go at this myself
