New #crokinole board is on the wall. Looking to start a gaming group in and around #AnnArbor sooner rather than later.

Happy with this restoration. #handtools #woodworking #handplane

New experimental #crokinole board is really starting to come together.

Oh good they fixed it 😵‍💫

Looks permanent.... @qlinedetroit ?

Well that's a downgrade from real-time tracking...

Here is my pitch ... use the existing tracks ....

#crokinole night on the new copper inlay board seems to be going well at #lowertown cafe. Exciting stuff and always nice to see folks having fun.
Maybe we make it a thing idk.

I'll never understand why they don't put room numbers on these.

#crokinole in #a2 let the fun begin and the tradition spread 😊🍻

#crokinole night in #a2 at #lowertown was a big success! Who knows maybe we'll do another.

Made a mallet for chiseling... a bit larger than expected haha

Nice to see a project's results in action. #crokinole #woodworking #diy

Well the fresh updates from #A2Council to the East Medical x Fuller Rd really seems to have failed for #pedestrians and #cyclists ... to nobody's surprise... That's what the #onemorelanebro mentality will get you.

Btw for those that do, feel free to use these pics for advocacy.

Finished with my second circular board. Finishing is looking like something I'm getting good at. This in one is also the first I've sold so exciting stuff there too. #woodworking #diy #crokinole

So the #AnnArbor #pausetheplan folks live in exactly the kind of places you think. This seems more like a class/income inequality issue the more I connect the kinds of places I see these signs ... not sure if that's the point though.

Starting to look professional(ish) who knows may just sell some of the next batch to local game shops depending on quality and interest. #crokinole #diy #woodworking

A little electric planing for another Casey Board #woodworking #crokinole #diy

Introducing the Casey Board. A nice #crokinole board from the same sheet of plywood as my last one. The railings were tricky but with some wood filler and sanding it all worked out.

Added a French cleat for wall mounting along with some scrap to slightly raise the board giving it that floating look during play. I'd say this one is done. Now for the next few.

The finished product minus a few more coats of wax.
