Members Otto6294 Posted January 20, 2016 Members Report Posted January 20, 2016 Making a chess board for a chess set my mother made for me 38 years ago. It is large. 24" x 24". Lots of beveling. I am going to attempt an acrylic wash on the light squares to resist the darker dye for the dark squares. Quote
