Custom Air Force Logo Shaped Cribbage Board

This cribbage board design was originally created for a client in 2009.  Now fast forward to present time and his wife is now doing one for her husband who is now retiring.
The special point is her husband is the person who originally ordered one for a coworker.  What a special gift for this retiree and I am proud to be part of it.

This board was created using hard maple as the shape and dark maple for the inlays
It measures in at 13 inches wide and 12 inches long.  In this design we did modify it a bit so the lasering could be done on the front.







The board on top was used to create a straight edge so the hanging hole could be cut.


Inlays are glued in and now on to the back and then sanding and finishing.


Gluing in the inlays.



Inlays laid out roughly where they will be fitted and glued in.

Cut and drilled using a CNC machine.

Final glueup


Now I will re-glue all the boards back together only in the reversed order below.  It will be done in several steps in order to ensure proper alignment of squares.



Rotate every other board and this is what the board will look like.
Next I cut 2 1/2 inch strips across the grain and reversed every other board to create the checker board pattern.


Reverse the board and cut crossways into 2 1/2 inch strips.

First the strips are glued up this way


Glue has been applied and clamps tightened.

And laid out on the clamps


Wood selected and planed.
I cut the boards (4 each kind) into 2 1/2 inches wide x 25 inches long and then ran them through the planer to get consistent size..
