Deschutes Brewery Cribbage Boards...completed



This project was created for the Deschutes Brewery in Bend Oregon.




They wanted a cribbage board which would promote their business and the game of cribbage. I am honored they chose Splinters Woodworks to work on this project with them.
This board can only be obtained by contacting the Deschutes Brewery. When you contact them, tell them Splinters sent you.

As you can see this board is in the shape of the Deschutes Brewery beer bottle using their company logo label.
These boards were created out of a local pine by request, with a two person cribbage track drilled around the edges of the bottle and a game counter in the neck. Red and black pegs rounded out this board.
This board can be adjusted to any type of wood, any size board, and either a 2, 3, or 4 person track.
To remain consistent the bottles were cut out using a Shopbot CNC router system using a provided photo, which had been converted to the proper format.

The Deschutes logo was laser engraved by Blue Dragon LLC in Columbia Falls, Montana using an Epilog Laser. This process creates a very detailed sharp image.


Any use of any copywrited logo must have written permission from the owner.

This photo shows the slot I created on the back of the boards to store the cribbage pegs.

The cover has dovetailed edges to allow it to slide in and out of the slot.
