This custom cribbage board is soon to be headed to Saskatchewan Canada where many games of cribbage will be played on it.
Per clients request I used dark walnut to create this large custom board. It is a six player board and measures in at 18 inches wide x 32 inches long and is around one inch thick. There is a slot put in the back for peg storage.
The client also asked for a silhouette of a loon and the number at the 30, 60, 90 and 120 points on the board, with the other points numbered every 5 holes. You will also notice the skunk silhouette after the 90 point.
The board is titled
"Bill's Board" with "You gotta pay to play" at the bottom of the board. I can see some very spirited games being played on this board.
The larger carving in the center is of a Loon and was done using a 3-D CNC router system. I think it really adds to the elegance of this custom cribbage board. It is recessed and surrounded by an elliptical shape to simulate water. It really came out nice!
