Never heard of this game Hello Ron, I came across this pattern soon after starting scroll sawing (couple of years ago), liked it, made it, and it's been a favorite seller and requested gift from friends/relatives. I compare it fun wise with the Shut The Box game. But this one allows for multiple players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrollerpete Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 The pattern is from Steve Good so far I think I cut and sold over 40 of them but since we do not have pennies any more in Canada, I will change the plan to nickels drop box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 you make this sound like a fun game. I think I will go back and look at it on Steve Good's site again and read a little more about it and perhaps make one for the fun of it Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 (edited) I also have sold quite a few of these. Instead of penny drop, I was lazy and used coin drop. The coin drop game pictured is 3/8” Baltic birch, 9x5x2 1/2. With a hinged lid. The penny drop is a bandsaw box, made from alder. The dimensions are 7x3 3/4 x1 3/4. it is a lot of fun to play. I include two rolls of pennies, laminated directions and a $1.00 scratch off. I tell people that the pennies should stay with the game. (Who the heck carry’s pennies these days). The scratch off is used as an example of what you can use as a prize for the winner. Plus, it’s great marketing.
