Cribbage board poject...


From Don in Ottawa:

"A co worker of my son’s knew I was ‘into woodworking’, as he puts it and asked him if I could make her a crib board that was a little different. After browsing around and giving her some options, this is what I cam up with.

Yes, there are a few drunk holes in it but with that grain, who really notices :o)

I made the board from Rosewood and the base from Mahogany."

"...One of Brown's most elaborate creations was an adapted cribbage board for a woman who is blind. The finished product looked like a small writing table with drop-down leaves. With the leaves fully extended, the tabletop measured 42 inches long and served as the cribbage board. Brown drilled holes in the tabletop and made 6-inch crib pegs so the woman could play the game easily.

"That cribbage board was a work of art," says Symington, who reports that the recipient was thrilled to receive it..."
