It's a really nice board. I built that same one many years ago, gave it to my daughter. I'm gonna post a picture of her playing chess with my granddaughter.

I had considered that chess board but chose a different one. I think the one I used was out of a magazine in the last 2 years. I will look at the issue number.

Very nice.  Not sure I am brave enough to do the chamfered edges, squeeze out would kill a beautiful board.

This is not a structural joint. A little glue painted on the bottom of the square is plenty to stick it to the plywood.

For those looking for the plans for this, they are in issue 132.
