Grandpa's Shop:The picture to the right
shows part of my late Grandpa's Shop. He
was my cribbage partner for 10+ years. We
played 2 games, once a week. He too was a
woodworker, a orchestral violinist and a
music teacher. Aside from making furniture,
he also made stringed instruments (violins,
violas and cellos)  and bamboo fly-fishing
poles. I still miss him.

    Recent Improvements I've made include:

    * Miller Dowel Pegs, to mark double and single skunk locations on certain boards.
    * 5/8" peg hole holder instead of 1/2" hole.
    * Countersink the peg hole - allows better seating of screw cap
    * Better sanding approach - initial clean-up sanding is done with 80 grit,
    * Better inlay technique for point separators to eliminate tear out
    * Less tear out on the hole drilling due to use of home-made hold-downs
    * Drilling holes with cobalt bits - sharper, cleaner holes, less tear out

My shop is somewhat typical for a hobby woodworking shop. It contains all the basic tools for
cutting, shaping and otherwise turning wood into something familiar. My shop is not nearly as big or
as clean as this shop. I use ALOT of clamps when making cribbage boards and I'm pretty sure I
have more clamps than Nawm. For more information about Nawm's clamps, click here.

Cribbage Board Prices are something I struggle with. On the high end of the price spectrum for
hand-crafted crib boards, I’ve seen makers ask $250+. On the low end, around $10-30. The
question of how much to charge for a hand-crafted crib board gets to the heart of why buy anything
hand-crafted at all? The answer to that question is very simple. It makes, you, the buyer feel good.
The price you pay must reflect the value you give the board. People have an inherent eye for quality.
People like to own beautiful things that reflect the subtle, almost unspoken nature of fine
craftsmanship. Crib boards are one way I communicate my love of woodworking and share my
craftsmanship with you, the cribbage player. Over time the prices of the boards may or may not go
up, and the boards may or may not become collectible, dare I say even desirable. Since I started out
at the high end in terms of quality and craftsmanship, I will always maintain that level, regardless of
price. An Enumero Cribbage board will stand out from the crowd. I humbly submit that they are
unique, beautiful and you will be proud to own and play on one.
