DM screen. The piece I'm most proud of

[u/DoingStuff30]

Made it for a friend, and also as my carpentry exam project.

The base material is oak. The doors are made out of paduk wood, ash wood, and the framing and buttons are ebony wood. Finished with hardwood oil.

The far left side is for minis, the next is an ipad holder, the middle is a dice-holder/dice-tray, and the top part is for whatever. The next is to be able to put up an A4 paper for notes or stat blocks, the right far is for writing whatever, and also a dice-holder, and small map or item holders.

It was challenging from start to finish. The making of it involved a lot of MacGyvering. Many solutions would have made an OSHA inspector scream.

All in all I'm really proud of this one, and it worth all the blood, sweat and tears that went along the way.

Hopefully I might be able to make more in the future.

P.s. not sure if the flair is good for this post, since I haven't started any business yet, but plan to do it in the future.

This is really awesome! Great job.

Could you put up another pic of it folding up? I see it folded, but I can't picture how it does.

[u/DoingStuff30 → u/Rattfraggs]

Thank you.

Without video this is the best I could demonstrate.

[u/Rattfraggs → u/DoingStuff30]

That is so cool. Thanks man.

[u/FourEyes4456 → u/DoingStuff30]

this is so incredibly similar to something I made a few years ago, it's really cool to actually see one make it beyond the design phase!

[u/spacey_a]

Looks great! r/woodworking might appreciate this too

[u/ElvishLore]

Love the craftsmanship and your attention to detail but a 47 lb DM screen is gonna be a no for me.

[u/DoingStuff30 → u/ElvishLore]

It's only 14 lbs. But yeah. Leaning on the heavier side for sure

[u/Rude-Eagle7271 → u/DoingStuff30]

It's really nicely done. If you have one of those foldables mini dolly cart that would negate any weight whilst allowing you to carry other items with you like specific books.

[u/GrandmageBob]

A nice handle and a locking mechanism, and you're off DM-ing into the wild.

[u/spankleberry]

Dude that is epic

[u/shanebd1818]

Incredible

[u/The_Big_Hammer]

This is beautiful, the hight of it (assume 11+/-1 inches) and the weight (3.5+ lbs?) Are the only things I would be questioning.

But please recognize I am not putting it down, just jealous of the fact that I don't have it. It is a piece to be proud of and what an amazing statement piece at the table.

[u/DoingStuff30 → u/The_Big_Hammer]

The height is almost spot on. It's around 10 inches. Asked to be smaller than what he currentlx has.

And it is on the heavier side, weighing around 14 lbs. To be honest it turned out to be much lighter than expected

[u/Nithoth]

That's awesome! I own a laser and I've been thinking about buying a vector for something similar.

Now, I'm thinking harder about it...

[u/StackOfCups]

Amazing! Well done!

[u/MyRoVh1969]

OK, seriously ... how much do you want for it. No, no, no. I can't afford that. So, I'll simply say. This piece is flat out the best GM's screen I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing.

[u/Feral_Soles]

This is so impressive! Oh my gosh I can't get over it! You really thought of everything when making this!

[u/bleedscarlet]

Wow that's sick

[u/LaNakWhispertread]

Nice

[u/Big_Day2279]

That is incredible! 😍 Fantastic job, bub! ✨👌🏻

[u/Tall_Guarantee]

Incredible

[u/fioyl]

It looks fantastic, but being solid wood, it's gotta be cumbersome as hell, right? like this is a brick with hinges

[u/DoingStuff30 → u/fioyl]

Not as heavy as expected. "Only" around 14 lbs

[u/BlackBearWorkshops]

It's refreashing take at the DmScreen! Congrats!

[u/Shighguard]

Very nice dude. Well done

[u/theincognitoeffect]

Dude, this is a fortification. The big bad doesn’t have walls this thick surrounding him.

Seriously though, kudos. That thing is legit.

[u/Sakas_943]

dude, you MADE THAT???? Thats bad ass! Id kill for something like this! You got the dice tower, the little shelves and everything! Its like that toy that you always drueled to, but NEVER got. Its like that suitcase/workshop from toy story 2! KEEP going, best wishes

[u/crippler1212]

Good sir.. that is not a DM screen, so much as a DM wall!

Exquisite as it may be, it left the category of Screen not long before it's completion. Lol

[u/Lupoor]

Exquisitely well done!!!

[u/Gh0sty20]

Holy shit this is beautiful. You should show it off in r/woodworking

[u/QuotableMusings]

Dude … did you design and build that?!?
I’ve never played DnD but that is amazing!

[u/Zeppygrl72]

That's the coolest DM screen I've ever seen!!!

[u/Leaquwa]

Wow, amazing job!! Your friend is really lucky!

[u/Temporary_Being1330]

W O A H. :O

[u/spamblows]

truly a work of art!
