If you look at the 2 drawers you will notice a space which is for small dice leather dice shakers to complete the project. I did look at a somebodie's previous post that contained a diagram from a book how to sew the base on at an angle but I cannot find it now. Can anyone tell me where that post it was please?

I emailed the required pix to myself & selected the low resolution option which was fine to then post with no other adjustments needed.

This games table was my Major Work Uni project in UK for teaching Design & Tech. The design incorporated Chess, Draughts, Nine Men’s Morris (on the reverse side of the chess board) & Backgammon (in the base after lifting off the chess board). All pieces stored at a drawer each end of the table. The table was Honduras Mahogany incorporating various selected veneers, brass display dowels and leather. All lapped dovetail joints were hand cut. The chess pieces I made from a mix of ground stone and gypsum set in moulds. The checkers are made from European Boxwood and Indian Rosewood (very rare now) which I turned on a lathe with a home-made cutter.

Thankyou for that I'll see if I can take a few pix together & stay under the 1.46MB rule. Tony

Thanks Jimi I'll check it out and test on scrap leather. Will reply re results. CrustyOZ
