Custom Four Person Cribbage Board for 40 year Retirement.

This custom cribbage board is a retirement gift from the wife to her husband....and will surely become a family heirloom.
It is being made out of Maple and measures in at 8 inches wide and 18 inches long.

The board has been routed with a decorative edge and the custom storage slot placed on the back for the custom pegs.

Once it was finely sanded, a hand rubbed polyurethane finish was applied to protect the wood.  The custom lasering was done by Northern Lights Engraving.

The edge is done and the first coat of poly had been applied..

Slot on back for custom metal pegs storage.

Just back from laser shop..



The layout I created in CoralDraw


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

Custom Beer Bottle Shape Four Person Cribbage Board

This custom cribbage board was created for a client in this beer bottle shape with a custom logo being lasered into the board.  It measures in at 19 inches tall and 8 1/4 inches wide.  A slot was added to the back for storage of the custom metal pegs.

Once it was finely sanded, a hand rubbed polyurethane finish was applied to protect the wood.  The custom lasering was done by Northern Lights Engraving.


Finishing is completed and board is ready to ship.

Slot on back for custom metal pegs.

Polyurethane has been applied...

Back from CNC and laser shop. The edges have been temporarily
left on so I have a straight edge to rout the storage slot
for the custom metal pegs on the back.


Computer generated layout.....

Custom logo provided by the client.



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

Happy 2013......

Typically this is a time of trying to catch up on paper work and get ready for tax time. Then there is  maintenance on the shop and equipment.  Not to mention some very needed cleanup.  However everything has been great business wise and I am meeting myself coming and going.... Needless to say.. just because I haven't made any posts in a few weeks doesn't mean I am slacking at all..  I am busy at work at all the above, some matching benches for the bean table created last year,  as well as working on a bunch of designs for new clients.    Stay tuned I will be back very soon with some new projects writeups...

Thanks for all the support everyone has given me here. and for another great year...... Cheers......
