As for the checkerboard, probably not worth the effort. Would be easier to just make a new one that won't crack over time.... Yeah that’s a painful lesson to learn Tom.

I glued them up and took the clamps off after about 30 min to an hour which is what was recommended on the label of the glue. The shelves were then scraped and run through the drum sander and taken to the job site and given to the painters. The next day all of joint lines showed up after the primer was applied. They all had to be re sanded. I think the glued swelled up the wood at the joint which was then sanded off. After it dried thoroughly the wood shrunk back down. The lesson learned would be to allow more time after the glue sets up before sanding. Is there any way you could disassemble the checker board top and fix it?

Being new to wood working I never relized that wood changes so much over time. Thanks to another one of your great videos I know that. I'm also sure that I will learn from my own mistakes(prototypes). So have you tried to make another chess (checker) board with better success?

You said you can make those cove moldings on the checkerboard box on the table saw. I don't know that technique. Did you by any chance explain it in a video or do you know where that is described on the internet. I Searched several times on your site and many others but no luck. merry christmas arjan, the Netherlands. Hi Marc, interesting stuff.
