How the Water Becomes Wood

  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.

A Lake Winnipesaukee cribbage board in solid birch, 14 by 14 inches: the lake's islands etched under three peg tracks, finished in oil, with the pegs stowed in a compartment beneath.

Camp culture and cribbage were made for each other, and Winnipesaukee's etched island maze makes the best possible playing field: pegs thread the Broads, round Meredith Bay, and sprint for home past Wolfeboro. Three tracks seat the whole bunkhouse; the skunk lines settle who does dishes.

It hangs by the wood stove all winter, waiting for ice-out like everyone else.

The full lake in stacked depth layers hangs as the Winnipesaukee 3D chart.
