Description
Game Boards can be made to fold in two by hinging it down the centre so that both it and any accompanying Playing Pieces can be fitted into a Storage Box for convenience.
Method of Manufacture
Card Game Boards can be stiffened using Stripwood Technology techniques as shown.
- Cut lengths of Stripwood to make two frames : each one equal to half the size of Game Board,
- Apply card triangle Gussets to the joints down one side but replace them with a continuous card strip down the side to be hinged (this will provide support for the adhesive tape applied later),
- On the other side of the frames, apply the card Game Board,
- Bring the two halves together face-to-face and wrap around the hinged side with strong fabric Adhesive Tape to create a 'hinge',
- Open up the folded Game Board and play the game!
