Cribbage Board

[JimmieDuke]

Had fun making this last week. The original idea came from here (http://canadianhomeworkshop.com/2447/project-plans/make-a-cribbage-board).
I had the fun of turning it into a project for my machine.
First time attempting pockets which I have ordered some flocking to line them.

Nice job with the cribbage board. You mentioned flocking. I used to add flocking to cribbage board pockets but found if they are used a lot both the cards and the pegs with cause a lot of wear and abrasion of the flocking. If you want a covering, I have tried with better success using pseudo suede sheets to cut and cover just the bottom of the pocket. Lot less wear. Good luck. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the info and suggestion. You've convinced me to go with a felt or pseudo suede. Lot less hassle too!

Congratulations on a job well done! Advice on pocket lining a great suggestion. That's what's great about the Forum lots of sharing and advice.

Nice job Jimmy. I tried to make some a long time ago, but the holes would always be misaligned. Since I have put the rubber belts on maybe I will try again and see if I have any better luck.

I'm liking the rubber belts. Only put them on in the fall and the CarveTight a few weeks ago.
I sat with the paper pattern of the crib board with my 1/64's ruler to layout the design.

Looks like we have another cribbage board maker on board. Like the "burnt" board effect to offset the light colored board.
