... Hi, I originally found crokinole 20 years ago as a young teen: a friend and I stumbled across a board stashed in his basement. I don't remember actually...

... Actually if a perfect surface never wore, how would one polish it in the first place? Not a definitive answer, but I suspect that polishing glass or rock...
Actually, I've given some thought of glass. My wife does stained glass, so it seemed a natural. But drilling a hole in the center would be difficult as well as...
