  • Very simple project. Took what were basically scrap pieces of plywood (16x10 inches) and routed the edge, then drilled two 1/2" holes for the pegs (bought off eBay, put some wood glue on the pegs and stuck them in the hole) and then woodburned the name, and stained the whole thing. Added some simple wall hanging hardware on the back.
