I started with a bathometric map of the lake, and decided to use 20 foot increments for the cribbage board rather than 10 foot so the finished project wouldn’t be too busy.
In order to create a 2D file, I traced each of the lines using the AutoCAD polyline tool. I then rounded each layer using the polyline>spline tool to give the lake a rounded, more organic shape. Doing this process manually for each layer maintain
After tracing and processing each layer, I created an offset border, and used this to create the hole pattern and the out border for each of the layers.
Solidworks model of each of the plywood layers stacked. I removed the extra holes in accordance with the standard cribbage board.
Each of the layers was laser cut from 1/8” plywood and painted with acrylic paint. On the first 3 layers, the cribbage holes double nicely as alignment holes.
Finished product.
Plain cribbage pegs painted with leftover paint from the layers.
