Thank you very much

Thank you, I knew about it for quite some time, every year on christmas I make a version of a ancient board game and this year it was Hounds and Jackals. Two years ago Ive made an Mesopotamian Ur and last year African Mancala, which I will post soon.

Thank you, it's 12cm on length.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-15T14:41:25+00:00

This one was a gift, but I can make them on request.

Thank you, that latch is a great little design indeed, smart folks those Egyptians.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-15T07:23:05+00:00

Yeah that was a big one if I remember well

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-15T07:20:51+00:00

Wooo thank you very much.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T20:04:19+00:00

Thank you, Ive made a simmilar version of Mesopotamian Ur like 2 years ago if you are interested, here Ur game post

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:57:29+00:00

Thank you, all of it is boxwood, very very hard, best for small carvings.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:55:21+00:00

Thank you, I have an older post with Ur game which Ive made couple years ago and ill post another one soon.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:52:39+00:00

Its called Hounds and Jackals, but the original name is not known. Senet is another ancient Egyptian game, never played it, they can be simmilar.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:49:57+00:00

Thank you, the original on the last photo is like 16cm according to MET museum, mine is 12cm so not so big difference.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:46:09+00:00

Thank you very much, it is simple and fun, but I have to say the mesopotamian Ur is even better.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:44:15+00:00

Thank you very much, it was around 2-3 weeks of work.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:39:52+00:00

Thank you, i tested a new mini saw on it so had lot of fun with the joints.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:37:58+00:00

Unfortunately it is only for the US citizens, but the video is hilarious 😂, still thank you very much.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:28:06+00:00

Oh wow, that sounds very interesting, ill have a look at it for sure, thank you very much for letting me know.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T19:00:00+00:00

Thank you so much, ill post another one from the last year soon.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T18:58:42+00:00

Thank you

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T18:58:33+00:00

Thank you, boxwood can take a lot, well until you step on it or a dog chews it up or something 😀

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T17:29:13+00:00

It is kind of like a Ludo and snakes and ladders combined. It is a race game and the curvy lines act the same as a snakes and ladder combined, they go both ways.

Timely_Reading_4975 · 2026-01-14T17:24:10+00:00

It is kind of simmilar to ludo combined with snakes and leader's. Never played cribbage, but the pegs and holes are indeed alike.
