Thanks, Tom. I'd seen that post last year when I was looking through the site, but couldn't find it again when I went looking this week. I'm going to bookmark it now!

Thanks, both of you, for taking the time to reply. Fredk, that is exactly what I needed! Now I have a starting point for my board game adventures.

Hi all, I’m a brand new leather worker, and am interested in making game boards. I’ve read through the site, taking notes as I went. Thank you, CitizenKate, for answering questions about your construction methods! What I haven’t been able to figure out is how you all attach your leather to the wood, and when to case it. Do you glue, wait, and then case? Do you have a particular product and method to give a nice, flat bond between the leather and the wood? Or, do you use another sort of substrate besides wood? I’d appreciate any advice. Thanks! -Stacy

It's beautiful! Thanks for the link to where you got your fittings. Once I figure out how to make a belt, I'll be in the market for medieval fittings.
