Default Do You Label Your Cribbage Boards?

Nice job. I've often thought of making a crib board and modelling
it after my father-in-law's - he got it in Africa, as a merchant
marine, in WW 2. The best feature was the brass inserts in each
hole - and the straight not tapered ! brass pegs - much
smoother to play than the sticky tapered pegs.
It was a straight up & back layout.


that is a great idea as those tapered pegs are annoying especially
for anyone with impairments

have not ever seen a board with straight pegs and holes and definitely
not one with brass inserts

can feel an inspiration coming on

have seen the brass tubing at the hardware store
