Engraving BCE Magnetic Chessboards
Sort:
Cool; do you have any plans to bring the red/yellow board back into production? I’m also curious about the method/process you use to color/finish the squares, if you can share.

You mean my prototypes? I still have some in the garage if you are interested. But be warned, they are not nearly as polished a product as the final (printed) boards.
For the prototypes I used simple red spray paint masking the boards with tape. Over that I applied 6-8 coats of shellac and that was it.

I think the red/yellow board in this video is great for the black-stained BCE:

Personally, I prefer when Izmet starts with "Hello chess lovers" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zs5s7iD7IJc
How was the reception of the engraved BCE chessboards?
I am experimenting with personalized laser engraving on BCE magnetic chessboards. It looks kinda cool, methinks ...
