Something for potential buyers don't let the $6k stop you from looking. The Black Walnut table is $3525 at medium size. Where as Elm/Maple is $1350. Something like Elm/Maple will be around $3000 for the Table, Toppers, Topper Block, and accessories shown. I'd be difficult to hit $6000 going Elm/Maple even adding on many many accessories in those woods. Just something to keep in mind.

Anyone curious, the wait many people experienced on the first kickstarter was due to wyrmwood waiting on machines to arrive and quicken their production process (machines hindered also due to covid) now that the company has finished the initial kickstarter and recieved all of the machines, their through put should be far more efficent. Great review of the table. (P.S. wyrmwoods vlog entitled "Wyrmlife" documenting their design and manufacturing process is extremely entertaining and informative for potential customers. Just something to consider for other possible backers!)

Fellow MGT owner here. Love my table. I'm always excited to have people over, it's always easy to swap between gaming and eating, and I'm glad the table is ethically made in the US by a team of experts. WW works hard to make sure your product and experience are perfect. I also know this recession is poorly timed for their MGT pipeline and I wish them all the best through this time of uncertainty.

Great review! I appreciated that you include both good and bad experiences and offer advice on how to avoid the bad ones or what to expect. The only thing i think could be added is the starting price of the cheapest table, since wood selection has a big impact on it and the possibility for the table to grow in the future makes it easier to buy the smallest one if it is all you can afford

Awesome review of the table! I'm still waiting for mine to even be shipped from that first Kickstarter (International shipping was delayed several times). Really hope to get it soon!

I spent around $2500 on mine and got mine a year and a half ago. I have loved the table and we will have it for decades to come.

Excellent video - thanks for sharing!

don’t forget to mention the amazing finish which tends to resist scratching and denting and that the packaging was better than anything i’ve ever seen and that the topper block now has accessories that can be purchased to make it useful when not holding the toppers.

Once you pick a size the biggest part of the cost is the choice of wood. It's worth pointing out that you can mix and match your woods to control some of those costs (and add a little customization to your table). You can get the table in Walnut and the toppers in Wenge. You can mix and match any of the accessories the same way. I actually got most of my accessories in less expensive woods to keep the cost down. They still look great and have the same build quality. I got my table last month and I absolutely love it. It is well worth the cost. This is a piece of furniture I'll keep for a long time. I'm currently looking over the accessories being offered in the new Kickstarter to see what might work for how I'm using the table.

Everything you make seems to be very high quality, whther its maps or videos. I can tell you get a little nervous and feel that you need guidance from some sort of script or bullet points but let me tell you that you deserve more viewers and have nothing to be worried about. A quality table for a quality man. Cheers

Thank u for the video

What size did you get? Is this the standard width medium length table or did you get a bigger one?

Beautiful table! Can you also share a little about your DM Screen? It looks awesome as well!

One of the biggest tips that Doug gave on the Wyrmwood channel about getting one of these tables was that it's a marathon, not a sprint. By the table first, and the accessories later or vice versa. No need to buy everything all at once. And that's exactly what I'm gonna do.

How does the Player Desk serve for Twilight Imperium player mats and pieces?

I made toppers for a year at Wyrmwood. These guys really care about the quality of work they put out. A1 company with some of the best craftsman in the business. Jay not Jason & Bennett hands down are the 2 most talented craftsman in the business. Their PR guy is a better craftsman than most

Does the center of the table bow or give at all? I've heard that the wargaming width tables had this problem with the plywood bottom.

Is it made in such a way that the liquid won't drop down into the game area if somebody spills a drink when it's set as a dinner table?

What I find funny, the more expensive wood types, are actually my least favourite wood types.. So to me, it seems counter that the woods I want the most are the cheapest... That NEVER happens normally.

That Blade Runner poster is sick

If you spill something does it leak through to the play area?

3:39 - Do people not store their accessories IN the table? Especially the rail accessories like cup holders and such. When game night is done, we just move all ours to the inside rail and put the toppers on. I get that's not really handy for Player Desks and such, but for 90% of the "fiddly bits" it works fine. The most commonly used ones we store on the ends so they're quickly accessible by lifting the end topper.

Also, Wyrmwood has a KZfaq channel that acts as a vlog of the company's activity called "Wyrm Lyfe" that has many of the lead people at Wyrmwood in it. It's entertaining and informative if you're interested in the company or the products. Link to their channel below: www.youtube.com/@WyrmwoodTV

Wouldn’t each removable component fit inside the vault when not in use? As long as you it isn’t filled with a paused game I suppose

Get yourself a displate metal piece of artwork that is something basic like a landscape and use that to put your magnetic rail accessories on a wall.

What size is your table? It looks wide. I backed mgt 2.0. Debating between small and medium.

The thing you haven’t mentioned in the “modular” feature is that it’s only Modular if Wyrmwood continues to produce in the wood you purchased. There are a few of us who have espresso stain and ours will not be modular. I do think ours is worth the cost and I love it!

Will drinks spilled while dining go through to the boardgame underneath?

For a review I’d hopped to get more info on how the table has worked for you for the 1/2 year or so you have had it. How has it held up? How much has the walnut color faded ( as yours appears in a basement with little UV probably not much ) Which of the accessories have proven very useful and which see much less use?

It's like i hear me reading sleeping stories to my kids

How much space does TI4 take on your table? Do you think a standard medium MGT would fit a TI game?

My thought is that heirloom quality and build it yourself do not go together at all. My group commissioned a local furniture maker (well kinda local, 4 hours away) and we had a custom made solid cherry table ( 3.5' x 8') built with all the features of this table plus a few more for about 1/3 of the price. It's one solid piece of furniture that took a forklift to load into my trailer and 5 strong guys to get from the trailer into the house. I consider that to be a heirloom table. And since I picked it up, shipping was free. That said, the table itself here looks really nice. And as long as your happy with it, that's all that matters.

What size is this table?

you have your game stored in the vault. The topper is on. A glass of water gets spilled. What happens to the water?

It's cool, but i get more satisfaction making my own stuff. It took a long time to get all the necessary tools, and now I'm lacking time of course. But most people aren't willing to drop quite as much money on tools, or have the time/knowhow and years of practise to work up to large scale and finely detailed projects. So honestly it's pricey, but to do similar yourself, you'll still approach the $1k mark in material costs alone, and be prepared to hit another 2-3k in the power tools you'll need to meet similar accuracy. So if you can afford it and have no interest in doing it yourself, I'd say it's worth it, as you would spend similar amounts or more on custom work, workout any of the features. You could do the entire thing with hand tools and drop your cost on tools down to under 1k, but i suggest those people take a block of wood, and try smoothing it down evenly with a hand planer. Then imagine doing that over several pieces, on both sides, to make a 6x4 foot or larger surface.

What are the dimensions of your Wyrmwood table?

“Paying only a fraction to convert” is a massive overstatement and the reason they don’t list pricing on conversion kits is often times it’s only slightly cheaper than buying the large table to begin with. And I mean SLIGHTLY. Otherwise great video.

Is that black walnut?

Wyrmwood had very limited shipping to Europe in the first KS, in the current one I think they have non. This has resulted in several simular products being developed by European furniture makers. These tables might be very good tables, but they are not Wyrmwood tables. So be awere of this.

Huzzah

I don't think I've spet $7000 total on the entire contents of my living room.

ya no1's gonna spend 7k on a board game table then say "no i regret it".

Bit of a critique on your review; it seems less "review" and more "here's a commercial for Wyrmwood's next Kickstarter campaign which you can go and back right now". I know you said you paid for your table, but there's certainly a lot of Kickstarter placement/promo scattered throughout your video.

Always amzing how much people convince themselves how good Wyrmwood is to justify the price. Fact is, most quality wood workers will build an amazing table of better quality for far less. Most Wyrmwood is mass produced and it isn't anything special for build quality. Again, find a local wood worker and you can get a SIGNIFICANTLY better table at a FAR better price.

A fool and zir's money are soon parted.

Nope. Not paying $6000 for a friggin table.

Don´t even consider Wyrmwood if you are not located in the US. International Backers have not receved their table yet from the last kickstarter. I paid close to 4000 dollars for a similar table that is in this video. Wyrmwood held my money for 2 years, and then tried to charge me 4500 dollars for shipping to Iceland. To add insult to injury, they could only refund me 90% after holding my money for 2 years. Shit Company.

You all got a lot of disposable income. Nice table but its a bit much.

Wyrmwood = overpriced gaming equipment made by stoners

You used the word bespoke to describe the table and then said the vault sets it apart from other gaming tables… You don’t know what bespoke means and you clearly don’t know the rest of the market you are talking about.
