Thank All!
I got the idea from several sources on the internet. Including lumber Jock Mike Gager at http://lumberjocks.com/projects/72219
But I decided to paint the colors like a traditional board. Plus I wanted to put a frame around it to hold in the marbles if someone should bump the board.
Blessings!

Very nice. I too had never seen a two person game board – neat.
Are the balls wooden? They look like stone or something from here.
Cool project,
Steve
