Latest chessboard I made for a customer, Walnut and Birdseye maple. 2” squares

Good job! Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful 

This is very nice!

Any tips on making the board and making sure it won't warp?

Have some wood earmarked for a board project but haven't researched it well yet.

@mmbwp  Very nice. The birdseye maple is very distinguished and the walnut grain is running horizontal, perfect!! One of the best-looking boards I have seen. 

Well done @mmbwp! Finest craftsmanship on display. I’d like to impose on you, if I may, to place pieces on the board for another pic or two. 1- it helps me to visualize just how amazing your work is, and 2- we crave just such pictures.

Yes...most of my boards I have made are just double layer, and not triple like this.  Customer requested it this way.  see this link for more

thank you

I feel the triple-layer has a lot of class.

Wow. Those are two beautifully selected pieces of birdseye maple and walnut. 

I have seen many bird's eye maple boards that look just white, you can't see hardly a pattern.  This board rocks.

Super classy board....Don't show anymore boards! I don't want to get my collector juices flowing again.

sorry about that...don't look here then.

thank you for the comment.  I made the walnut table the board is on as well.  much hard project that I will never tackle again

Did they ever stop or are they simply on a hiatus?

Yes, @mmbwp, I’m still enjoying your fine work.

Yo Wits.....A long term hiatus,until I get the new astronomy binoculars I'm salivating over.I only have 4 currently.....Ha.

Very nice, I love that the squares are raised well above the edges.

Sorry....I don't want to disrupt this thread with any more of my eccentricities.....and .....they are legion.-
