  preparing to cut a practice piece from one of our stock boards
• 
  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
• 
  we took care to remove the sawdust in between routing passes to avoid overheating the end mill (dust extraction was still a work in progress at the time)
• 
  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
