Popular Post Dave Monk Posted February 5, 2022 Popular Post Report Posted February 5, 2022 I used my scroll saw to cut the drawer opening on the table and to cut the chess pieces. I used alder, nogal, maple, and aspen. jollyred, Karl S, goldfish and 25 others 26 2 Quote

Dan Posted February 5, 2022 Report Posted February 5, 2022 Fantastic work!! Are there two drawers, or does the one drawer slide out to either side? I've always wanted to make a chess set but I'll wait until I retire. Dave Monk 1 Quote
