ruggero 100 Posted November 27, 2016 (edited) Hi all, i am making a gift for my wife. I make a ancient Viking boardgame. The HNEFATAFL . The board is from oak wood. 48 x 48 x 3 cm. [/img] [/img] [/img] Carving with burned backround a round the board. In the middle a round viking knotwork. And in the middle of the four sides a viking boat.

ruggero 100 Posted November 27, 2016 (edited) And a bit more : The inner cyrcle is only burned. It is very difficoult to burn straight [/img] [/img] Ruggero Edited November 27, 2016 by ruggero Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoy's Forge 27 Posted November 27, 2016 That's a beautiful piece.I'm sure she'll love it. I never thought of wood burning like that! That would make a nice picture frame too! Never herd of Tafl either! I just keep learnin new stuff. Tafl sounds like a klingon dish LOL. Does the loser of this game get pillaged, or a blood eagle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
