I believe what you say about track boards but I couldn't find any on the web.


It just occurred to me, a game of Euchre is scored up to 10 points (but
the way I heard it, you're supposed to usethe four 5 cards to display
the score). I think that's to distract you while you've being cheated!
; ) Ithink I have never seen what I thought was an "honest" gameof
Euchre. It may have been played, but I can't sayas my background is too
limited.


This could be the answer, the only game score boards with 24 holes that I've
found on the web are these Euchre boards:

They aren't the exact same configuration but this is the closest I've seen so
far. Anyone know why they would have four pegs if they are only tracking two
scores? Maybe just two extra pegs.

Thanks,
Rob

I haven't seen any game boards with such big holes, with metal inserts,
or with laminated wood.

A female shopper sees a nicely finished piece of laminated wood with
bright brass inserts. The sign says, "For the man who has everything."
She asks what it's for. The shopkeeper inserts some 1/4" screwdriver
bits, inverts the board, and shows her that they won't fall out. She
gladly pays top dollar because it's aesthetically pleasing, it's not
mass produced, and it looks useful. The beat-up appearance shows that
her husband liked it.

If I had the brainstorm to make such caddies, I'd buy laminated cutting
boards to saw up. I'd buy a cribbage board as a guide for drilling.
I'd enlarge the holes I intended to use, tape over the rest, and clamp
it to my laminated board. Thus it has some resemblance to a cribbage
board and to a cutting board.
