DELUXE Chess Table Build

This Chess Board Build video shows how I made a beautiful Chess Table. This is my entry for the 2023 #RocklerTryThatChallenge. It’s also the most expensive piece of furniture I’ve ever sold so far.

This handsome wooden game table, perfectly proportioned, was designed with the serious chess player in mind. Special care has been taken to design a stable game table with the perfect proportions for Chess and includes a removable chessboard with 2.5" Squares.
