Custom Lower Michigan Shaped Cribbage Board Table

This custom shape cribbage board table top was created in the shape of Lower Michigan.
This project was a interesting and challenging one to work on.  The  2 feet high legs had to be strategically placed to create a solid base for the table.  The irregularly shaped top which measured in around 18 inches wide and 24 inches long made this fun.
The cribbage track was custom drilled to hold  larger than normal 3/16 inch custom metal pegs.

Dark walnut was used in this project finished off with a hand rubbed polyerthane.

Finish has been applied and it is ready to ship.

The legs were glued and screwed with the hole being plugged with a contrasting wood.

Large Custom Maple Cribbage Board

This custom cribbage board has been delivered and this is the email and photo I received back from them.

Paul and Annie Jo with their new board.

Dave

Annie Jo and I are so grateful for the gift you sent us. We have been playing cribbage every morning after breakfast for almost our entire married life (which will be seventy years this November) In fact The only time we did not play for any length of time was when I was overseas during WWII and Korea.

Now that I seem to be getting old my eyesight is failing (glaucoma and macular degeneration) and this cribbage board has been a godsend. It also has probably saved our marriage because of the many erratic pegging on my part. See what you have done!!!

Again we say we are sincerely grateful to you and your generosity!!!

GOD BLESS YOU

Paul and Annie Jo

This custom cribbage board was created for a client to give to her elderly parents.  She contacted me and told me her folks play cribbage ever morning and their eyes were not as good as they used to be and she wanted to do something special for them.  Of course, I wanted to be a part of that.

So I created this layout using 1/4 inches custom metal pegs which are 2 1/2" long with a 7/16" head with a 1/4 inch base.

The layout was created with this in mind.  The overall board Is 10 inches wide and 33 inches long.  A large number size deck of cards was sent with the board.

It was a true pleasure to be part of this project.  Thanks....
