It’s part of the homeschooling section we’re doing on Norwegian culture. I never delved this deep into social studies or cultural history when I was in school.

I just finished watching a woodworker make a Hnefatafl board/set, and immediately thought This seems like an excellent GF project. Checked the forum and sure enough, one has been posted! And now it’s gone on my list of future projects too. :slight_smile:
