Finally, all that’s left to do is paint the dowels to use as your game pieces. You’ll need 9 paint colours, and should paint 9 dowels in each colour (so a total of 81 pieces). However, I’d defo recommend painting a spare of each colour in case they go missing! To paint the dowels, simply dip them into a tin of paint, or apply with a brush. Wipe off the excess and place into a hole of your Sudoku board to dry.

Start off by cutting your plywood to size. It needs to measure 20cm x 20cm. Use a jigsaw or hand saw to do this, trying to make it as neat as possible. Alternatively, ask in your local hardware shop to see if they can cut it for you.

Use a clean cloth to apply a layer of wood stain or varnish to the entire Sudoku board. This will deepen the colour and emphasise the wood grain, making it look so much more professional.

Start with easy Sudoku puzzles and work your way up gradually through the difficulty levels. Sometimes it can take time before you find the next number, so it's important to have a little patience. Immerse yourself in the delightful world of beautiful wooden puzzles and enjoy hours of pure entertainment! When the stain or varnish is dry, you can add a piece of craft foam to the bottom of the Sudoku board. This will add a bit of friction, so it doesn’t slide all over your table when you play.

DIY Wooden Sudoku Game Tools and supplies you’ll need

Place the first numbered wooden pegs in the playing field according to the instructions provided in the booklet. Then fill in the remaining empty holes yourself with the remaining pegs. When you have succeeded in placing all 81 wooden pegs so that the numbers 1-9 are only found ONCE in each row, column and 3x3 box, you have succeeded in solving the puzzle.The next few steps will use the below diagram as a guide. Use a ruler and pencil to draw a grid across one side of your plywood ( follow the blue lines in the diagram). First, you’ll need to draw 9 horizontal lines starting 2cm from one edge, then spaced 2cm apart. Then draw an identical set of 9 vertical lines. This will create a grid of 9×9 lines – and each of the points at which the lines cross will be a hole for your DIY wooden Sudoku game.
