I Made A Giant Custom Lord of the Rings Catan Set!

Making a fully custom Lord of the Rings 3D Catan board game set to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the classic board game Catan, the 70th anniversary of books The Lord of the Rings and the 40th birthday of my best friend! I'll walk you through the entire process and even bring you along for the gift exchange!

So give it a watch and enjoy a few quick tutorials, a lot of Lord of the Rings lore, way too much reminiscing about friendship and Catan, beautifully narrated passages from the LOTR books, and a gift reveal that did not go as planned!

Thanks for watching!
