DA DA DA RANGERS SUCK!!!!!!!!!

[mrceebees14]

That is sick.

[MICHAEL24AZ]

i need to know how much the table hockey was. i would love to hear back from ya

[ianhockey10]

how do u make tht

[jayblob716]

Thats awesome!

[Lukenatme]

Have you thought about putting a wireless surveillance-type of camera on the bottom of the scoreboard, or some other place to then have a live camera on the action that would be displayed on the scoreboard monitors? I like your set up and am trying to come up with a way to mod my Super Chexx scoreboard in a similar fashion.

[wizardofcraw]

@Lukenatme My scoreboard monitor is a digital picture frame, so it can't accept live video feeds, but tiny LCD TVs (less than 12") are available that would do the trick :)

[undertakerpitt]

that is amazing

[MrSluggo666]

Table top hockey beats fooze ball all to hell ! it takes more dexterity for this game!

[almo8989]

due that's sick man. Any more videos of the table in action? The one with the bottle getting knocked off was sick. I always though the chexx table was the best, but this one has to top it!

[wizardofcraw]

@almo8989

I will have some new videos soon, a lot of enhancements since this video. stay tuned :)

[TheMAstErPiEce69]

wich platform do you use to start it ??? ... or you made this custom ...?

[megsgh]

Nice table! That thing is awsome!

[wweroolz]

dude how did you get the leafs emblem on the table man :D

[wizardofcraw]

@wweroolz It is a vinyl sticker applied with a heat gun.

[wweroolz]

@wizardofcraw sweet manbring it over here to new mexico catch some sun lol

[theluger03]

cool

[gordtep]

Love the room!

[Danimal14222]

Man...you live near Toronto? I'm right over the border, I'm coming over. I'll bring the wings.

My slot hockey game had the Oakland -fricking -Seals on it, and was 2D...I was deprived...

[ZZZredROCKERzzz]

oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my god that things awsome I wont one but, I don't think I could build it.Did you buy it or biuld it?

[ReyMysterioFan619x]

did u build that?

[ComplexNutty]

Nice man thats like the best hockey table eva

[smunge]

Holy Shit! That thing is gorgeous.



[wizardofcraw]

@smunge

Thanks, I have actually made several upgrades and improvements since this video... stay tuned for some new videos soon :)

[tman383]

lol I use to make things like this... scoreboards and everything. Except I used hockey cards, lego boards and other stuff. lol I was 10 xD

[THESOULbornold]

yea.. i dont have a girlfriend either

[flickhockey]

great game...do you know Subbuteo? (go on Youtube and see it..). I'm working on a custom Subbuteo ice hockey game called FLICKHOCKEY (with Stiga figures), very realistic and cool to play. Want some infos?: flickhockey@yahoo.com

[waffle1997]

i think when im grown im gonna do something like that and im gonna have a padlock on the door because i love high security

[sllimn]

Sick table how much did it cost to build it?

[wizardofcraw]

@sllimn about $2K

[420Honey]

thats some serious wattage

[casegas46]

i love that miniatures

[PeterBryson91]

i want to be you.

[wizardofcraw]

@PeterBryson91

:)

[pspdude1990]

you toronto maple leafs me to and calagry and vancouver

[bradpiercey2933]

wow thats nice

[bobctx]

i love new york rangers

[mrcheese10001]

awesome dude u could sell this for like 5 k

[wizardofcraw]

@mrcheese10001

Thanks, that's probably a good ball park number due to its size and complexity. (a new pinball machine for example, is another great 'game room' item that retails in that range as well)

Although there are also possibilities of having simpler versions of the game that would bring costs way down.

[MrJamesbondfan]

LEAFS SUCK

[jagjagjag009]

haha i like your hockeyroom epic

[meeches619]

you made this

[wizardofcraw]

table hockey development update - images of new paddle design! (see bottom of my channel page)

I will be posting any new updates there leading up to the launch of my new set of HD videos.

[Wehategod]

I would like to have WHA Teams in table Hockey

[wintersnowboard]

this setup is amazing but i could do without crosby

[wizardofcraw]

Actually my new setup will be a Leafs vs NHL All-Stars format, a throw back to the All-Star games of the 50s-60s, but using modern players. I will still have Crosby (sorry), but also Ovechkin, and Malkin for sure. The John Tavares figure is coming out soon, so he might end up on the table as well. Player pose style is important for table mechanics to work well, so even if I like a certain player, his pose may force me to overlook him.

[Zapneu]

I am from Montreal, I better show this video to my friends, this... is... hockey !

[defleppard1969]

Patent this if you can! Nice job. Crosby the hero at the Olympics!

Have you tried a energy saving style bulb to keep the heat down?

I might try to build one this year, I must do the research to find the men or make those from scratch! Tough project I'd imagine!

Thanks for sharing this vid!

[wizardofcraw]

Its all customized.... some parts completely from scratch, others are modifications.

[MakkaraPullaKeijo]

I just subscribed. This is awesome!

[rfahockey25]

so you took the bubbleoff

[itin4265]

Holy crap man seriously !!!!! You could probably start selling these. Absolutely awesome, great job!!!

[wizardofcraw]

Thanks :)

What I would like to do is create a series of YouTube videos on how to build your own. The first video would be how to build the base framework which supports the upper rink/ice surface. If this video generates enough interest I will continue making the rest...

[lucidatheist]

Wow buddy, impressive!

[brianheffronjr]

o man, your outa control! this is my dream setup. can i commission you to make me a scoreboard?

[wizardofcraw]

Thanks :)

I would love to help you out, but it probably wouldn't be until the new year as I am in the middle of upgrading this setup (both table and room) which is eating up the majority of my free time. Have you considered building one yourself? Its not as complicated as it may appear, just very time consuming. I could provide a lot of helpful tips if you need them to get started.

[ilovevt2]

Hello, Just had to let you know how fantastic your

game is!!! Wish I could be clever enough to

make one too! I have made miniature players

that go on one of the old hockey games. I

painted the players, faces and all (plastic).

Your are to be commended, Sir!

[wizardofcraw]

I have made several improvements to the game and the gameroom since I shot this video....stay tuned for some new videos :)

[ilovevt2]

Terrific, I will look forward to them. Would enjoy

a photo of the game to download when you

are done, if that's possible. Thanks much !

[anthonynm5]

Hey how much was the rink and where did u get it

[wizardofcraw]

The boards & glass are used from 2 McFarlane ice rinks, although I replaced the plastic 'ice surface' tiles that came with these rinks with a custom cut sheet of Sanalite that included slots for the table hockey players. Ice surface was about $295, but will last a life time of wear and tear.

[love1to1fish]

do you live in ontario?

[jimmyk058]

Dude, seriously. Great stuff.

[ideahead79]

Cool... I love the songs....Ah, Good old hockey!!

[tman247890]

omg thats awsome, can it play the HNIC theme song too?

[wizardofcraw]

Yes. It can play any music you wish, as it is controlled by an .mp3 player :)

[MoJamesProductions]

can i buy that from you, id give up bucks!!

[rataranian]

How did you make the scoreboard?

[wizardofcraw]

I used parts from various sources. The scoreboard circuitry I used from my old table hockey, but expanded it to four sides. The scoreboard itself was a standard lamp that I simply filled the empty space inside with an LCD screen (stripped down from a photo frame), and 2 speakers.

[rataranian]

wow crazy. I want to make something like this for my stiga game. I wanna try to make a red goal light with a siren wav.

[karlo2510]

youre dog looks dead

[schoolsucksent]

do you like hockey? lol

[lilchick34]

awesome! I saw this on tablehockey heaven

[sportsmania21]

This is unbelieveable! What a great idea to turn mcfarlanes into a table hockey game. I have two mcfarlane rinks made into one rink but mine dosen't compare!

[wizardofcraw]

Thanks :)

[rollerstan]

I am truly amazed and inspired. Congrats on your bubble hockey success! Is the scoreboard rigged to the scoring, or do you change the score manually? I would love to see a do it yourself if you publish a document or blog or something. I'd love to re-create the Buffalo Winter Classic in my basement someday!

[huntingman102]

thats so amazing. how long did that take you and how much did it cost?

[Amnesiacmidnitetoker]

Amazing just totally awesome best basement in the whole country I bet?

[wizardofcraw]

its actually a lot different now from when this video was shot. Installed new wood flooring, bar style opening in wall where Crosby popout stands, and a fresh coat of paint on the walls (now Penguins Gold)

[Ubertodt]

That is so cool!

[ritefoolish]

This is great, but your score board would look so much better with a Habs logo!! Hahaha!! ... Go Max go!

[wizardofcraw]

Max is a Penguins fan :)

[razoramon989]

how do you get the images on the scoreboard to change?

[wizardofcraw]

Its actually just a digital picture frame stripped down to just the essenstials (LCD and motherboard). I just barely squeezed it into the scoreboard framework. Its an 8.4" 800x600 pixel LCD.

I bought it on Ebay for $30 (reg. $180). Newer models support not only photo slide shows, but video playback as well.

[bradlovesFOB]

you are the luckiest man on earth.

that is the coolest thing ever!

i thought the score board had little cardboard pictures with a backlight. but then the score board lit up with changing pics!

and i almost fell of my seat!

[wizardofcraw]

Many thanks!

[FadedCo]

cool game :) that must have taken a while to make :) btw this is sally tomec's sons

[wizardofcraw]

thanks :)

Ya it did take many months as I created it from scratch without any plans to work from.

[nhl07360]

SWEET LOVE IT !!!!

[tawnicam]

Where can I get my husband one of these?! You are awesome for constructing this.  Nice work. Hockey fans everywhere are jealous of your custom game and "man room" too, heheh.

[wizardofcraw]

Thanks :)

I am looking into some commercial possibilities for this hockey table. I will post any updates regarding this here, so visit back here from time to time to get the latest info.

[m4nu4]

OMG! thats frickin awesome :O

[wizardofcraw]

thanks!!
