That is very cool Robert.
I bought one of these:
I did my holes at 60 ipm plunge with no pecking at all. It did them like a champ. Was throwing chips all over my machine (I had to remove the dust boot). Nice clean holes. And that was into walnut.
I think my 4 track board took about 8 minutes to do. Itād be even less with my accel changes.

turned out great.
How do you choose whether to use 2, 3 or 4 sets of 123 holes? Is it just personal preference or how many players that usually play? I am about to start designing my first board after learning to play over the Christmas break.
Thanks for the clarification, now googling team play cribbage!
Hereās one I made for a Christmas gift. Lots of learning with it, include design modifications when things didnāt go exactly as planned.

I like having space when only playing with 2 people because I have large fingers and the board I started playing with had 4. I may condense to three given Roberts rationale.
Yeah, it may have been one of those design modifications. I had the model originally designed for a different thickness of material (thinner) and thought when I changed thickness and increased the model depth for more detail that I didnāt sink it so deep. Right now itās 1/4" deeper then it should have been as the open area should have been 1/4 thick. So design modification, time for a cherry base to hold it and the cards.
Yes, using a JTech 3.8W.

I havenāt found anyone in Kansas other than my family that plays Cribbage. I learned growing up in ND. My wife plays and she grew up in Illinois.
Help me out here Bob, as I donāt play cribbage, I didnāt even know there was supposed to be a āskunk lineā until my sister asked why her board didnāt have one. Where does the skunk line go? Should I include āmatches areaā?
So if I was to locate a skunk line, it go at the 90 mark?
Now Iām gettin somewhere! Thanks Bob and Ron
Are you making a plug/lid for just the center or will the holes be covered too?
