Custom Four Person Dark Walnut Box Style Cribbage Board

This custom box style cribbage board was made for a client in Massachusetts as a birthday present for their brother.  The chosen wood was dark walnut and they wanted me to use a piece of wood with a lot of grain pattern in it and then top it with a hand rubbed satin finish to allow the grain to show through.  I think the wood I chose meets that request well and turned out awesome.

Dimensions for this project were 16 inches long x 8 inches wide and 2 inches thick. The bottom section was the same size and had pockets created to hold a deck of cards and the custom metal pegs that come with each custom board.

Finished top of the board with engraved initials in bottom right corner.

Back from laser and ready for next step

Custom Interlocking Wedding Rings Cribbage Board

Using the interlocking wedding rings image somehow being incorporated in the design was the idea of this client from Minnesota. It all started with the below photo she shared with me. I took it from there and I think the end result came out well.  This board will be given as a wedding present to her new husband on their wedding day.

This custom two person box style cribbage board was created of dark walnut and measured in at 18 inches long, 10 inches wide, and 2 1/2 inches thick.  Inside the bottom section I created storage pockets for stowing the custom pegs and cards along with a personal lasered quote.

This awesome cribbage board is now on its way to its new home in time for their big day. Best of wishes and 29's to this lucky couple.

Final coatings are done and the wax has dried and buffed.

Custom Box Style Cribbage boards

This is an order which was placed at the Hooper's show for six custom Oak box style four person cribbage boards. They will soon be on their way to eastern Montana as Christmas presents.

This is the boards cut to size and prepared for the drilling of the tracks and the pockets below for the deck of cards and the custom metal pegs which accompany each board.
The boxes are roughly 8 inches wide, 16 inches long, and around 3 inches thick.  They have been made out of Red Oak.





Here you can see the tracks have been drilled and the boxes are laid out for sanding and the several coats of poly which will be applied.

 Here is the bottom section of the box.  It has two pockets cut into the wood to house the cards and the custom pegs.




Pieces of brown felt line these pockets.
