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 2 cribbage pegs and 2 die. The pegs sit securely in the holes so no falling out at a bump. I handstitch the leather binding to the wood making these the perfect gifts for the hard to buy for.
Finished size 6.5x4" Folded and 14x4" unfolded.
