Too cool! Love the clever solution to the storage problem
A much under-appreciated way to improve ones skills.just for the learning exercise.
When I realised I had a very thick blank and nowhere to store the marbles, my original idea was to drill holes in through the sides and then push each marble through, but then the difficulties of getting them out again made abandon that idea.Neat board Bob - a friend of mine made something similar, but with a bowl cavity on the lower half, and a large hole on top to drop the marbles through.
I understand what you are saying. However my game is about 60 years old. Not quite original in the idea. Need to take it to Antiques Roadshow.Very awesome project and I love it's originality!
The game is not original, it was first recorded as being played way back in the 1600's.Not original? I am confused; I thought you built it? Are you saying you copied it?
I have my grandma's old solitaire game and it's built a bit differently-the way I am used to them looking...so that's why I said originality...
