Just a small progress post, I’ve been thinking about the table we’re building and I sort of want to put a chessboard in the top. Yet to work out the logistics for that, I know how to make the board by cutting and gluing strips of light and dark wood, but I don’t know how I’m incorporating it into the table. I’m also designing chess pieces based on characters of mine, as seen on the right. Would love to turn them on a lathe but I don’t think that will happen anytime soon, since I’d need a lathe.
