This project brings together my love of playing board games  with my passion for wood work.

Konane is an ancient game from Hawaii that is played on a grid. The grid can be of any size, I have chosen to make my board 8x8.  The idea of the game is to jump over your opponents pieces and remove them form the board. When one player can no longer jump any of the opponents pieces the game is finished and that player has lost. (See full rules and end of instructable)
