I use 1/8th" cherry for the tops of these and 1/4" mdf" wood to form the depth to contain all the pieces. Included in this set are cribbage pegs and deck of cards. The pegs sit securely in the holes so no falling out at a bump. I hand-stitch the leather binding to the wood making these the perfect gifts for the hard to buy for.
Finished size it 3.2x4.5" folded.
