Cocoon Boards
A modern contemporary design made from machined and hand finished Birch faced void free plywood with rounded corners all round that contour to meet the checkers in the playing field. Unlike most boards the depth of playing field has been reduced to save weight and make these boards ideal for travel. Made with magnetic closure and handle-less for simplicity ideally combined with a shoulder bag. The name Cocoon comes from my first roll-up board design hence the Butterfly logo.
The Boards will be available in five models (see size chart below):
35mm Travel size £135.00*
40mm Travel Plus size £245.00
44mm Tournament size £295.00
40mm Table top model £240.00**
44mm Table top model £260.00**
The external ply casing can be finished in a number of ways; Natural Birch waxed, Stained and waxed, burnt wood waxed or can be finished with Acrylic wash as required.
The boards come with a strong canvas printed playing surface (customisable). Custom surfaces will add around 3 weeks to delivery
The checkers currently being used are acrylic available in a number of limited colours for the 35mm and 40mm designs. The 44mm size has more checker options and is the main difference in cost. Checkers will be available in limited colours from stock. Non stock available to order.
Cups supplied are basic oval faux leather. (Handmade oval leather cups are available at £30 extra per pair, priced separately at £50 per pair).
Note* The 35mm travel set is supplied with standard red/white or black/white acrylic checker/cup/dice sets as seen here Bgshop.com
Note** The Table top version is a flat non-hinged model. If clubs are interested in buying more than 5 at a time with the cheaper checkers and cups, discounts would be available.
