In this video I make a cribbage board for my long-time friend who is turning 80 on July 12, 2023. We are going to drive up to Toronto and surprise him with it. The board is 18" x 5.25" (457mm x 133mm) made from six different types of wood, four of which are used for inlay. The board is made from highly figured quarter-sawn sycamore. The tracks are inlaid with walnut, cherry, and padauk. His initials are inlaid with ebony. The sixth type of wood is a piece of Madagascar rosewood at the bottom of the base.

The board has storage for a deck of cards and pegs in the detachable base. The cribbage board attaches to the base with concealed magnets.

If you don't know how to play cribbage, you can get an explanation of this and many other games @TripleSGames. You can watch his cribbage video here:    • How to play Cribbage
