Yes I made the board too.. I added a 3/4" walnut border around it for character.
Thanks for the compliments everybody..

Thanks alot.. I had to figure out what to use for a light color and picked Aspen even though it is kinda soft..And of course Walnut my favorite..

Sweeeeet project Michael, did you make the pieces from a flat board? It doesn't look like a compound cut but I have been mistaken before.
Game board came out awesome too.

Very Cool, Could you send me a link to chess pieces? Or send me a PDF copy of the pieces. I have one 2/3 done but no plans for pieces yet.

Awesome set! I'm quite a newbie but I want to make one for my friend's birthday (May, 19). Hopefully, I'd succeed because it seems to be a really hard work to do...Wish me luck!
