design of the practice piece with all the needed shapes in Fusion 360
(partially) failed practice piece: one of the tool changes caused the CNC router to move along the X axis - always home after a tool change!
on to the full game - design in Fusion 360
partially routed 6-player board on the WorkBee
back to pictures of the 4-player game: undecorated version completely routed
the decorated version required some manual corrections with a rotary tool because the warped board was not engraved evenly by the CNC router
