Here comes Christmas, and what am I doing? I'm still making sawdust and spraying finish on a load of cribbage boards. I have recently finished boards made from bloodwood, canary wood, and elm among others. Please check with us to see what is done and what is about to be finished.Shipping a tourney board in the continental US is $7.00, a short board is shipped for $6.00. Orders from outside of the continental US take a little longer and cost a little more to ship but are possible. I recommend contacting me via email, or calling, to find out if the board you are looking at is still available, sometimes the board is a one of a kind. All two track boards come with 6 wooden pegs, and optional brass pegs gold and silver tone are available for $3.00 for a set of six with a board and $5.00 without a board. Previous customers are eligible for the discounted price.
Sean MurphyTo reserve a board you may use the Reserve/Request a Board or just email or call me. I accept checks and money orders and now credit cards through PayPal (for you "EBay"ers out there), I ship after 7 days for checks and within 48 hours for money orders and PayPal transactions. Please do not send payment for a board without first contacting me, I attend cribbage tournaments on weekends and the board you are considering may no longer be available. I will gladly reserve a board for you while you make payment arrangements, or even just want time to consider a board.

If you have a favorite wood that you would like to have a board made from, EMAIL me for an estimate and I will get you a price for your board. Or fill out the Reserve/Request a Board form including your wood type.
Maple:
- A heavy hardwood variable graining ranging from straight to curly to flamed to birdseyed. Wood is creamy white to reddish in color turning slightly golden with age. The grain pattern can be straight but is often wavy or curly. The curls in the wood can shimmer in the right light. Has a medium to fine grain texture. In the pictures the top boards are stained to bring out the curls in the wood, the bottom boards are from the same piece of wood. If you want the stained board they are $5.00 more than the unstained.

Mulberry:
- A hard but lighter wood, orange to deep golden in color. Has a prodigious ray pattern similar to quartersawn white oak only denser. Extremely variable in grain texture and pattern, a Mulberry tree can have many small branches growing from it and these affect the figure of the grain pattern as well.

Mahogany:
- Another popular tropical wood from Central American. Wood can range in color from pale brown to pink to dark reddish. The open pored texture takes some time to produce a smooth finish. The finish, however, brings out the shimmer and shine of the wood.
