My 2nd brandub design.
Lau Kata Kati (also known as Nau Keti Kata or Kowwu Dunki) is a traditional two-player abstract strategy and battle-type board game from India (originating in Lower Bengal and the United Provinces). It belongs to the family of historic Indian War-games and shares structural similarities with Alquerque and Draughts (Checkers).

11x11 Hnefatafl set I made based on a simplified version of a 12th century board found in Trondheim, Norway.
Made my first brandub (Irish variation played on 7x7 board) set for a friend. Corners and center squares are stained with 2 layers of coffee. Board is an 8 inch square and 1/8 inch thick.
Brandub set with a hand-casted resin king.
Brandub by Cyningstan. A charming set hand-made in the U.K. It's made of birch plywood with the lines burned on. The design is based on a stone board found in Downpatrick Cathedral in Ireland.
Another 11x11 board I made based on the Trondheim board found in Norway. Border is stained using 2 layers of coffee and then finished with beeswax.
Tablut by Liz Lam. The first real hnefatafl set I've made. Board is 12x12 inches and 1/8" thick. The design is based on a board found in Jarlshof, Scotland.
Board based on the Android app, Viking Chess.
The Welsh tafl game Tawlbyund or tawl bwrdd is thought by many scholars to have obtained its name meaning "throwing board" specifically because it most often was played with dice. Linguistically this makes sense but evidence is otherwise scarce. The game was definitely played on an 11x11 grid and a diceless version is described. The dice if used would as noted above either have determined if a player got to take a turn or how far he could move a piece. Home-made.
