- This is a short "in action" video of a Custom Carrom Board that I built.
The original video can be found at

Please be sure to visit the blog on how the carrom board was made at
diycarromboard....
Please note that I am not a professional carpenter or a woodworker ;) and I do not take custom orders, it was purely a hobby project.
If you are interested in knowing more details behind the project, I wrote a separate blog explaining the end to end process of making a Carrom Board from scratch. The blog can be found at diycarromboard....
Please post link to the video if you make one. Good luck & Thank you!
Your board is simply fantastic. I think I will copy your design when I make my board. And you are very good wood worker.
Please do! The instructions and I made the design available for FREE here on my blog diycarromboard.blogspot.com/
Those who dislikes vedio, doesn't watched your diy carrom board vedio, I really motivated by your creativity, I will make my own carrom board, I read your blog on the same , that is very informative and usefull. Thank you ...
Thank you for the kind words. Glad it inspires others in making their own stuff - not just carrom board :)
Why would anyone even dislike this video?
Great job, Suresh. You inspire me.
I'm very new to woodworking, slowly building my collection of tools and ideas.
Thank you for the kind words. This is Internet, so can't really complain if someone doesn't find this video useful. Good luck with the woodworking, it can be very therapeutic and you get instant sense of accomplishment :) Take your time, that's how I started, looking around for ideas and tools and more importantly read about how to use these tools safely.
No words can explain how smoothly and elegantly the striker moves. What a classy carrom board!
Well done. Nicely crafted. Just a suggestion, pocket corners of the play area should have been flush with the boundary wall to avoid coin kick back. Also, there should be backing support to the play area if you intend to use it on a stand or stool as the board will warp without support frame on the back. B Appreciate the way you have made the board.
You are correct on the corners. We rarely put it on a table to play as we like to play good old way. The back is extremely sturdy after applying several coats of epoxy, it is not going anywhere, and no chance of warping or damage. This should last at least 10 generations :)
Wow this is the best video on RUclips I had to like and subscribe when I watched this you did an amazing job my wife would really love this for an anniversary present please tell me that this is for sale? I bought one when I went abroad but sadly they wouldn’t let me take it with me at the airport and yours is so much better than the one I paid for please let me know if this is for sale thank you keep up the amazing work
A beautiful board ..... Something to treasure

+Anil Pathariya Thank you, Anil!
Beautiful carrom board. I wish if the board is made of real wood with Nylon coins.
It IS made of 100% real wood. I did not get time to make the coins. I just used store bought coins.
kash paisa hota to ye carrom hm kharid leta..! Simply Beautiful. Beautifully made.
Thank you! But it is not for sale :)
Everything is beautiful.. Do u know why wr the coins jumping off? The pockets shouldn't hv the extra piece of wood at the corner... I need one of this MASTERPIECE at my home.
Absolutely awesome cushion shots are very responsive as I saw in this video cld u plz tell the wood used in it's frame and which one to be used as per availability in India.

Hi Suresh,
My name is Abdul Khan i live in Elgin,Ill my question with u do u make these board in usa? i am looking atleast 6 pcs size 36"x36"playing area 4"x2"frame and 3/4" holes can you please call us if you willing to take my order how long does it take and price.
Abdul Khan Hello, Yes, I made this board in the USA. Unfortunately I am not a professional wood worker or a carpenter, and I do not take custom orders. I only made this board for fun. As far as I know, 36 x 36 is not a standard, but I have seen bigger boards before. To give you a rough idea, it took me over 2 months to build this, and the cost is more than 10 times the store price. But I built with the BEST quality of material there is, and I hope it lasts at least 10 times longer than the store bought ones. You can find more information on how I made this board on my blog at diycarromboard.blogspot.com. Thank you!
Sorry he doesnt make them. He only.made his own.
Can you please upload vedio for how to apply epoxy on ply wood, and how to polish it..plz
I have used epoxy for the first time. I went on RUclips and searched how folks have applied epoxy. I found videos from the manufacturer and the instructions are very helpful. I actually called the manufacturer and spoke to him on phone as I had few questions on how to apply epoxy on plywood. Plywood contains air pockets, and if you pour epoxy, you might find more air bubbles. Instead of pouring epoxy on plywood, I applied thin layers of epoxy (spread thin) and wait for it to dry, sand it and repeat for several times until the plywood is sealed thoroughly. After that, I poured epoxy to the thickness I wanted. There is no need for polishing as epoxy finishes itself very smoothly - just make sure the surface is flat and leveled, otherwise the epoxy is going to run to the low spot and you may have uneven surface in the end. Hope this helps.
Where can I find a Striker like that in US?
You can go to any Indian groceries and you will find plenty of strikers.
great board! are you using any powder on it?? ('wax')
Thank you! I don't use any wax on this. But I do put boric powder when playing. No matter how smooth the carrom board is, it feels weird without the boric powder :)
Gap between the pockets and frame should not be there.
Thank you for the feedback. That is easy to fix to make. I made an exact replica from an old carrom board I used to have - that has the similar pockets and the gap you mentioned.
I won't carrom board
Carrom pockets are wrong
Just I want this type of careom n delhi please healpe
hii..i am using my carrom board about 2 years and its surface is rough now..can u tell me how can i make it smoother again please?
+Amlan Sekhar Swain You can lightly sand it and apply multiple coats of polyurethane.
thanks :)
+Mahasri Kalavala what is a full size board ?
There are many sizes available. I believe the full size is the one that I made. The inside dimensions are 29.5 inches x 29.5 inches. I also saw much bigger carrom boards, and the small ones for kids. Please see my blog for more details, where I mentioned about the dimensions.
+Mahasri Kalavala
you said it for smooth surface sand (sand paper) it on the board what about the paint ,if u sand it on surface paint will doesn't effect
which plywood are using in carrom board
I used Baltic Birch Plywood. Here are more details diycarromboard.blogspot.com/2015/03/the-wood.html
hi, do you sell these beards? if you do then i'd like to buy one, if you dont please tell me where i can find'em
Sorry - I don't sell them, I made this for fun, and I am not a professional who makes these for living.
board size
i need this type board were i can buy!
It is unlikely that you'll find this type of board as this one is completely hand/custom made. There are many professional grade carrom boards you can buy online and in stores depending on where you live.
3:02 it's a foul bro...
lol - The game is not a real game, fun match at home. I am not entirely familiar with the rules as they change or very inconsistent ;)

how much money spend for this and which is the wood on the surface and mm , it is looking absolutely fine .
Thank you. I probably spent anywhere between 10 to 15 times the store value - only because I used best of the best hand selected materials, and custom works always gets expensive. It has been 2 years since the board was made, it is still in pristine condition and quality!
