ReplyĬlose to two years later and still no pictures! Reply Cost me a couple bucks and works like it should. Next put your template you have made on top of your cribbage board you have glued together and drill away. Not sure how old the comment of yours is but…I just grabbed a piece of acrylic and grabbed a cribbage board template off of the internet, marked out the holes to drill using a sharp punch and hamper and then drilled the holes. Good idea to use scraps but at $40 for the template I will look for another way! Reply What do we need to do get the pictures for this project? Reply It looks like it is good project and easy to do. Make your own template using a piece of acrylic, a cribbage board template off of the internet, lay out your holes by marking with a sharp pointed object, drill your template and use that to drill your cribbage boards you are making.

Prepare the BaseĬut it to 1/2″ to 3/4″ wider and 1/2″ to 3/4″ longer than the board. I drill 2 holes a few inches apart and seat cribbage pegs through the template into the holes to help keep the template and board in alignment. Don’t try this with one clamp – the template and board will invariably swivel out of alignment. Using 2 clamps, hold the template to the board. Be sure your sliding door is well seated when you true that end! Drilling the Holesĭrill, baby, Drill. Match it to your drilling template and true up both ends in the process. Now is the time I cut the board to length.

You can use your jointer, taking very thin cuts, a drum sander, or just sandpaper adhered to a dead-flat surface such as your bench top or table-saw top. Once this is cured, re-insert the sliding door and flatten everything. Next, glue in the stop block – use glue on 3 surfaces – then clamp it as illustrated in this photo. Carefully slide the center piece in and use 2 additional C-clamps to pressurize the glued joints.
