Turning Balls........

[Lazurus]

its going to be a simple set up as I can find no traditional games for Norfolk so I guess the design is open to my imagination / plagiarism.

How much would a ball of around 4.5cm diameter cost? Cheers...

depends on the wood. what are you after exactly?

[sloth]

Ideally, three balls. One each of 4, 4.5 and 5cm (or could be 4.5, 5 and 5.5cm, I'd need to check to be certain). They'd need to be a dark, non toxic wood, which could take a beating without splintering - mahogany maybe, walnut heart, olive? What'cha got?

i reckon walnut would do the job but i'll check my stocks to see what i have.

 

could they be stained as i have some whitebeam and cherry laurel which are rock hard but pale.
