Small speedy projects are perfect when you want to get started and practise your woodworking skills; they're also excellent if you're working with a very young carpenter.

This woodworking tutorial is suitable for making with children, but please remember that working with tools and wood can be dangerous. Before using any tool with which you are unfamiliar, consult its operating instructions and, if necessary, seek instruction by a qualified person for appropriate safety techniques.
Step-by-step guide
Step 1: Cutting the playing board
Cut a playing board to the size of your choice. It must be a square and there has to be room for 33 holes, so preferably not smaller than 20 x 20cm. Mark out a grid pattern of 8 by 8 equal-sized squares. If you have a board that is 20 x 20cm, then each square will be 2.5 x 2.5cm. Use a mitre square to draw the lines to ensure they are completely straight.
