Game Rules

Game Description
This game consists of a table, made from pegboard, a wood frame and wooden legs. The canes are made from wooden dowels and shaker pegs.
The Game Board/Table
The pegboard that makes up the game is 48″ long by 24″ wide.
The pegboard is framed by a 2″ board, top and bottom.
The legs are called “Parson’s table legs” and are 14″ long and measure 1.75″ x 1.75″. A hole is drilled and a hanger bolt is screwed into the top of the leg.
4 Straight Top Plates (to hold the legs) are attached to the bottom of the table, one in each corner.
The Canes
The canes are made of 1/4″ wooden dowel, 36″ long. The shaker pegs are drilled in the bottom, a little bit bigger than 1/4″.
The shaker peg is then glued onto the dowel.
