I’ve been fascinated by cribbage boards for years. I just made some templates for a large one recently.

Looks amazing! This makes me want to learn how to play cribbage. Hope you won’t hate me because I’ve never played cribbage before.

Ooh! I love the acrylic name floating over the slate - that’s fab.

It’s such a simple game, but loads of fun since there is so much variation between every hand.

As a bonus you only need 2 people…or a computerized opponent.

Only need two, but playing with a friend versus their parents is just as tense as a monopoly night haha

Was so hooked on cribbage at one point my friend and I got an app so we could play against each other no matter where we were. Definitely have a soft spot for the game, another great project, thanks for sharing :+1:t4:

Yes, I created the wood border and frame in illustrator specifically to house the 12"x8" slate. I’ve created a bunch of cribbage board templates that I sell, so this one will probably end up in the shop too. The trick I use in illustrator is creating a brush the has the 5 peg holes and spacer to place on the path, which makes it pretty easy to whip out a new cribbage design.
