Many people in the backgammon community know we lost our friend and partner, Tim Ferrell, in March of 2008. All of the woodworking was completed at Tim's home wood shop and the leather work was completed at his print shop.

We needed to set up a new wood and leather work shop. We will start taking new orders in August 2010.

A number of people have contacted us about building boards for them.  We will take care of their orders first.  Please feel free to send us an email if you want to be added to that list.

Our website is undergoing a transformation to make the process of selecting a board easier for our customers. Please keep checking back to view the changes.

You can contact: Carol Joy Cole at: http://www.flintbg.com/boutique.html for any of your backgammon needs.

We have built over 40 world class backgammon boards for customers in 4 countries. It will be exciting to continue that tradition.

In Friendship,

Randy & Clyde

Each Brahma Board is handcrafted and takes six to eight weeks to build!

The hardwood frame is strong and you have a choice between cherry, maple, padauk, walnut and jatoba woods. We use a clear sealer so the natural beauty of the wood stands out.

Our playing surface is slightly larger than most boards. That makes pip counting easier and gives the player on the bear-off side more room for rolling dice during the bear-off phase of the game.

The interior surface of each board is cut from a single piece of leather. That includes the area for the checkers and cubes. The grain pattern flows from one side to the other. We hand draw and dye the playing surface.  We work and condition the leather to give it an aged appearance.

When the finished leather is added to the board you have one of the most beautiful backgammon playing surfaces you will ever see and the best playing surface you will ever use.

Not only is this board beautiful - it is tough! The leather playing surface won't wear out like felt or cork, and can be renewed instead of being replaced.

The exterior surface of the board is cut from one piece of leather. We use a process that gives the leather depth and protects it. This is real leather with small scars that give the board character!  We made one board with the brand on the exterior and the backgammon player who bought it loved it!

These boards deserve to be called Brahma Boards!  And, because leather and wood have different grain patterns no two boards will ever be the same.  Each board is a work of art and is unique!

The boards come with a set of matching custom wood and leather dice cups, four 9/16th precision dice, one wood doubling cube and a set of checkers.

You can add a small brass plate engraved with your name or other information to personalize it.
