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.
