Custom Travel Size Cribbage Boards

For those of you who follow this blog you know that I have been working on this design for a while.  It has been a real trial and error, but I think we are finally getting closer.

This board has a space for a clients choice of photo or logo. Here I used the Centennial logo for Glacier National Park.

It is a folding travel board for travelers, hikers, or just folks who don't have a lot of space.

With this model I used native pine, but this project could be made out of any wood you would like.

Inside we have the space to store the custom metal pegs and a deck of cards.

There are two strong earth magnets being used to hold the box together once it is closed for travel.




Stay tuned for more updates soon......:-) ****************************************************************

Here is the four 21 inch peels, tomorrow they will all be cut to shape and then wait their turn in the sanding and shaping process.

Here are the two 18 inch peels.  The left one has begun the process and has been cut to basic shape..

Beginning stack of Birch lumber.

Dry lay out of two of the custom peels.

This custom order will soon be going  to their new home at Tomatina International located near San Francisco, California.

I start with this stack of birch lumber, out of which we will create a total of 6 custom peels.  The peels will end up as two different sizes.

First we will have four peels which will have a paddle size of 24 inches long and 21 inches wide, with a handle 41 inches long.

Second there will be two more peels 24 inches long  and 18 inches wide, with a handle also of 41 inches long.





This will make the peels at over five feet long from end to end.

Boards being planed to proper thickness

Once we cut the boards which will be used to make up these six peels to size they are planed to the proper 3/8 inch thickness.

The center board is allowed to stay at the full thickness of the board so we can mold a nice thick handle to support the pizza's that will be made on them.




Once everything is the correct size we will start the gluing process.

Stay tuned for more updates soon......:-) ****************************************************************
