How the Water Becomes Wood

A chart you can lose a Saturday to.

  1. CutThe board is laser-cut from solid birch to the water's shoreline.
  2. EtchDepths and place names are burned into the grain around three peg tracks.
  3. FinishAn oil-based rub brings up the wood and stands up to the table.
  4. RigPegs and skunks ride in a hidden compartment underneath; the wall hook is for between games.

An Italy cribbage board: 14 by 14 inches of solid birch, the peninsula and its islands etched beneath three winding peg tracks, finished in oil with the pegs stowed underneath.

The boot makes a superb racecourse: tracks trace the etched Tyrrhenian shore, cut past Sicily and Sardinia, and climb the Adriatic side to the finish. Three players fit, family rules apply, and the hidden compartment keeps the pegs from emigrating between game nights.

A gift that covers both the game-lover and the ancestry, one board.

The peninsula's carved depths hang full-size as the Italy 3D chart.
