You’ll also need a framing square, a clamp, some paper, a printer, and some scissors.
The type of wood isn’t important, but generally lighter wood will work better.
This cribbage board template is of the 120 hole type. There will be 397 holes to drill in total. The main 360 holes follow along three rows of 120 each that go around the curved end of the board and back up the middle. Most of the holes are about 1cm apart from one another.
You should now have a block of wood that is the same size as the template that’s glued to it, except for the rounded side of the template.
Every couple of minutes, turn the drill off and touch the bit to check its temperature. Let it cool for a few minutes if it’s hot.
You may also want to use a small sharpie, pen, or a very small paintbrush to write the different labels on the board as shown in the template.
