So I thought about posting this in MYOG, but I don't think it really makes the cut – I just looked up the bananagrams letter distribution online, bought 2 sets of scrabble pieces on Ebay, and counted them out:
The original bananagrams weighs 12 1/2 ounces on my scale, and the new one just under 6! I'm pretty pleased.
My plan for a playing surface is a thin CCF pad (either my thinlight or a 3/16" plastizote, depending on temp). I'll use a convoluted foam torso pad for my sit pad.
Nicely played. Such a good game.
Yes, great things can come from little things–invented right in little ol' Rhode Island. The Bananagrams "world headquarters" (about the size of your average fast food restaurant) was right up the street from me when I lived in Providence. How far you've gone, little Bananagrams!
But isn't the aesthetic of the banana case half the fun? Maybe you can make a banana-shaped bike bag?
I'm sure you could hit 4oz with a belt sander and a few fingertips…
I should add another addition to this, which is that when playing in the backcountry you can allow proper nouns from the area you're in, or any word that appears on the topo map. Especially fun in the Grand Canyon with all the temple names.
