TLC's Homemade Wheel & Puzzle Board

I'm working on my trilons...



I'd like to buy an A!

I forgot to post that I'm using 3"x5" chipboard for the trilons...taping the edges together.

I got the chipboard on amazon.

The side with the letters will have a tiny piece of Velcro and the letters themselves will, also.

I bought some recordable buzzers from amazon and painted them. I set them to say "red", "blue", & "yellow" when pressed for toss-up puzzles.

Your wheels look authentic and stunning and I love the bonus envelopes! I hope to read some fun stories from your game night!

Thanks! The comma (moved up) worked. It looks more like the apostrophe used on the show.

Well, my "Wheel of Fortune" game was held tonight and it was fun.

All 3 contestants already knew the basics of the game play however for some odd reason they always called odd letters instead of the normal RST combinations. I'm not sure about their strategies. The red player ran away with the game with over $20,000 in winnings, the yellow player got goose-egged, and blue had a little over $8,000.

The first place winner received a $10 prize and second place won $5.

The bonus prize was a $5 McDonald's gift card but it wasn't won.

Here are the puzzles I used:

Of course the answer is VIDEO CAMERA. I'm really surprised the contestant didn't solve it but I guess it just didn't click with her.

Yes, I was trying to do a Fall/Halloween theme.

I'm not sure what you meant about the Stage 11 3/4 puzzle comment....

I've REALLY sort of given up on making a puzzle board for now. My brother and sister-in-law were helping me but they are very busy with other things and it looks like this will have to take the back burner for a while longer. I would still really like to make it someday but I just wanted to give a quick update about the status of my puzzle board.
