Threw some wood on the the Shapeko to make a Cribbage board for my parents, for Christmas. Turned out really good.

Agreed! Very nice gift. Did you use a drill or an end mill for the peg holes?
We have a set of pins and a matching tool at:

Yes Sir, bought and used it on this project.
I used the drill that comes in the kit sold on the site.
Will - I bought the kit as well but haven’t used it yet. When setting up the toolpath, what should I select as the tool number? I don’t see anything resembling a drill bit listed as an option in Carbide Create.
And if the answer is to use the #102 1/8" End Mill, then do I adjust the depth per pass, the plunge rate, feed rate and RPM?
As noted on the Shop page:
Sample files are at CutRocket
Do those samples make sense to you and answer your questions?
The samples make sense, but I’m still missing something on where to select the tool called “Cribbage Drill”. It’s not listed as an option that I can find.
Hey Mark.
I will have some detailed info for you on Monday when I sit down at my computer again. I’ve done a bunch of testing with the pins, drill and multiple materials.

Excellent job @DwayneB I love the way that turned out.
For an upcoming video for our YouTube Channel, I created an updated file design based on the one you used. It may inspire you to build another board.
