  1. Horse race game board

    The boards are made from walnut, maple and paduk wood. Under the walnut circles are washers, and under the horses are rare earth magnets. If you are wondering how the game is played, goggle it.
  2. My first Crokinole Board

    I made this for a friend's brewery. Down in the south we have never heard of this game before. I hope that it catches on and people come to me for boards. I made the entire project out of a half sheet of cabinet grade ply. I can't wait to play it again tomorrow.
  3. Board Game Table Topper

    A friend asked for my help making a quick, inexpensive table topper for board gaming. We threw this together in a few hours for less than $100 (most of the cost was the drink holders and neoprene surface material). Table is 4ftx6ft. 1×4 pine glued right on top of 3/4" ACX. Sanding sealer...
  4. Cribbage boards Christmas 2019

    For 2019 I made up about a dozen cribbage boards that held the pegs and cards. All made from shop scraps and i used the rockler template for the track . The latches are magnets. This was a recycle gift, I made a few in the early 80s from solid wood and a template that I made my self. The holes...

    Similar to my previous project were I used scrap wood to build it, this DIY Mancala Board Game was also built form leftover scrap wood. Mancala game history can be traced back as far as CE 500 and 700. There are hundreds of variants around the world, but we will build only one of many variations...
  7. Cribbage Board

    The last couple of weeks I started building a cribbage board for a client. I will be the first to admit that I had no clue what cribbage was, let alone what this board was supposed to look like. In all honesty I thought it was something out of Harry Potter - LOL! The build was special order and...

  9. Dice Tower - Curse negator

    Hi Lumberjocks My friends and I, enjoy playing board games when we get together, so I wanted something nice to go along with our game night.

  10. Jigs & Fixtures
    As an avid board gamer I am wanting to start building board games both for fun and maybe for a bit of side money. Many games are grid based like a chess board. I've seen Steve Ramsey's video on making Quaridor: I was wondering of other ways people have found for making grid based boards or...
  11. CNC Woodworking
    Out of curiosity what board games do folks like to make on their CNC. I love board games and life doesn't let me get in the shop as much as I like, but I typically can make stuff on my X-carve. Corkinole will be my first build, but I was curious what other games folk have made or like to make on...

    The Idea I am a big board game geek and because of that I have been trying to think of how to tie my new hobby of woodworking with the joy of playing board games. I decided to make a simple dice tower. A dice tower helps you roll dice to ensure no cheating as well as keep the dice from falling...

    The Idea As you may know I love board games. When I plan a board game night at someones else house I must find a large cardboard box and pack in 4 to 5 games boxes to take. So I thought I should create a case that can hold multiple games and pieces for easy transport. After looking at my ideas...

    Honey-do sign test #1 Last year I purchased a CNC machine for our school, but didn't really get passed some basic stuff with the stock files that came with it. I recently decided that I wanted the kids to get more exposure with it, but I first had to teach myself. I gotta tell ya, some people...
  16. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I am picking up a new band saw this coming week. A Grizzly 14", the G0555LANV anniversary edition. I have no one to help me assemble it when I get it home. My wife is 5 feet tall and weighs 100 lbs. She's tough, but not that strong. I have no one else to help lift the saw onto the stand. Maybe...
