Mancala Board
Using maple and walnut laminate the two pieces together. Then plane down the maple side until it is one eighth (1/8) inch thick. Plane down walnut side till one reaches the desired thickness. I planed this one down to three quarters (3/4) inches. The stock I started with was walnut 3/4x5x24 inches and maple 1/2x5x24 inches one piece each.

Instructions
I used tic-tac’s as the game pieces. They were tasty and provided the game with pieces to use. One could also use M&M’s. I also used cooking oil to finish the part and seal the wood. Reapply over the years as needed.
