The Framers Forum

Is there any trustworthy person (I say that because I'll not know the difference) who can give me a good sequence of dominoes for a game of four. I've a vintage set to frame and I'd like to follow a game rather than simply lay them out regimental, with the ones that don't get played lined up along the bottom.
Thanks.

Not sure there is one as it's a bit random... try these, might help...

Why not just get another 3 people and have a few games and see which result you like best?...........Or kid on and play all 4 places yourself

Maybe we should have a mini tournament at the next "Framers Forum Live" event - to go with the tug of war contest

Better set off with the torch rightaway. Who's doing the first leg?


Anyone for synchronised underpinning?

Now then, I've got to be technically correct here!- - I've been playing myself and of course shifted seats so I won every time. An odd set of "bones" (been reading up). Every piece has the indentations of double six and it would appear that you hand paint the dots on. "Foreign Made" on the back. Anyway, I've got a layout so I'll have a go at setting them out tomorrow.

How's about getting hold of a cheap reverse set (or as many sets as it takes) i.e. if the dots are white on black, get black dots on white - and with a profile that is raised on the inside and outside, leaving a flat central space (two 'L' profiles joined together would do it) you could make a domino frame!

Probably overkill though.
