Default Cribbage Board Template

Grandpa,
There was nothing wrong with Lawrence's response. He informed the poster
that this is not the best newsgroup for his request. He then offered him a
solution, to draw up a template to his specs. You offered him another
possible solution, though I haven't looked at the Woodcraft or Rockler sites
to see if their templates come in different sizes or for a 3 player game, as
the poster requested.
You might feel that Lawrence's answer wasn't helpful and you have the right
to post that opinion, but name calling isn't necessary or helpful.

Martin

And this is in rec.crafts.woodturning for what reason? Pegs might have
something to do with this group, the boards themselves would be a bit
tricky to do on a turned object (while that might be cute, it would be
less cute for playing on, I think). Anyway...

How much would you like to pay? What sizes would you like? Any other
specifics ( normal layout, "racetrack", weird squggly versions...).

As a long-time cribbage player, it's fairly simple to draw up a board
template, even a 3-player one, but I don't work for free.


With assinine unfriendly responses like this no wonder few new people
stay here for long - Jackass.

Dewey - both Woodcraft and Rockler carry cribbage board templates. I
believe they run around $20. If memory serves they are available in
both plastic and metal. Check out their websites for the particulars.
