Been watching your vids for a while now i really like how you explain things in detail and keep it simple for us novices out there and love your whole attitude waste not want not keep it up mate
Looking great, anticipating the sequels! I'm with you on the labels on store-bought wood brother, they are a HUGE pet peeve of mine!!
Thank you for another great project video. Looking forward to the next part!
Outstanding job! I'm in the process of making detailed chess pieces from a book my daughter and son-in-law ordered from Amazon from their home in London. Still practicing on the pieces with my scrollsaw but haven't got to the board yet. I never heard of Iroko wood before, but never heard of Sapele either but bought a piece this week! Beautiful! Keep up the great work!
The oil really brings the project to life. Simple enough process when you know how. Inspiring stuff. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward towering those playing pieces made... Christmas present ideas already
+James Davies thanks
Beautiful, can't wait to see parts 2 and 3!
This board has a classic touch and a vintage appeal! The traditional staunton pieces would definitely suit it.
Looking forward to the next bit. Lovely board.
Would have never guessed that board came from scrap furniture legs. Well done and very creative. The oil finish with the clear coat made it look so rich also. Good job, looking forward to the rest of this series
That's some beautiful work coming out of your shop Kieth. Looking forward to the next instalment 👍🏼😊
+Marc thanks Marc
I just found your channel today and only just subscribed and already there is a new video!
I enjoy your videos very much! The way you describe the steps and techniques is easy to follow along with. The tool/ working noises are especially pleasant. Love the sped-up parts, too.
And Dylan(?) it's fun seeing him appear here and there. He seems to enjoy checking out what his human is up to.
Please keep up the great project videos and the nice editing!
+Ta Yet thank you, your comment made me smile :-)
Looking really good!
That board is beautiful !!
really nice looking chess board. I love the mohagany trim!
What a beautiful peice of workmanship love the finish fantastic grain in the woods chosen great vidios 👏👍
God that's really nice, can't wait for the rest.
Im -really- looking forward to these upcoming videos, heh
Great job
Fantastic build ! One question ... I’ve seen a video of a chess board build where it states a mitre corner trim would open due to the wood that is used for the board expanding ... have you had any problems ?
Wow cracking job looks mint. Thumbs up.
That grain colour pop with the oil = Gorgeous.
Nice work
at 3:50, there's a better way to do that. If you clamp adjacent pieces in the vise at the same time, outside faces out, and inside faces in, your hand-plane will create a perfect glue-up line. The error in the angle in one piece will be balanced by the opposite error on the other.
Love this project !!!
+Stuff I Made thanks :-)
Looks Fantastic! Great work!
+David thanks David
Nice build! Congratulations for 30 000+ subscribers!
+atteljas thank you!
So nice!
Awesome!
Really quality bit of work, I love the way the Teak oil brings out the colour of the wood. Maybe worth doing a video showing the effect of different oils on different woods?
... also more Dylan in future videos, the cat is the real star of this show
There are a few videos on TH-cam showing the effects of all the different oils, but it would also be nice to see what oils Keith uses as well
+Alexander Bolingbroke great idea about the oil video. In my experience though they're all very similar, I'm not sure I could tell the difference between them. I tend to just use whatever I have in the shelf to be honest
Same here. I love that you've got a rough old bottle of ICI teak oil that you've been eking out over all your projects.
08:33 so satisfying
beautiful work. just wondering how shiny the finish came out in the end... sometimes too much shine can be distracting while playing. thanks
is that a charnwood planer/thicknesser? if so, how do you find it?
Wow brilliant project thumbs up from me.
Agree 100%
6:55
Heat that label with a heatgun (or simple hair dryer) and it will unstick very easy.
Awesome board, btw :)
Hello from Russia :)
Brillaint.
nice board!
I only discovered your channel recently, it's great! Really enjoying all the little projects you take on. Do you ever build things on request? A wooden toolbox *hint hint*
+Robert Loveridge thank you! I occasionally do commissions, hope to do more and quit my day job some day
That's a beaut of a board.
That really looks fantastic
+SHARPEYS WORKSHOP thank you
Lovely looking board
+Badger Workshop thank you
Looks awesome so far!
A tip for the annoying stickers on the wood... cover the sticker in a little puddle of water, leave it for a few minutes and the sticker should become soggy then you can peel it right off! This may not work for every type of sticker but it has always worked for me :)
Realy nice work. What are the size of the squares ?
Looks great
+John Early thanks
That's beautiful. Almost 'marble' look to it.
What type of belt sander do you use
Nice !!!!
Better each project
Nice Chess board.
Iroko is very oily texture, this looks more like sappy Walnut, but loving the videos as ever !
Nice job.
Just a tip on removing lables from shop bought wood. If you heat them uup with a heat gun it softens the adheisive and they scrape off easily. I normally use a hair drier which is not as hot and so will not scorch the wood.
Bill.
+billsbasementworkshop great tip, thanks
Hi Nice project. I also hate those stickers on plywood. I remove them with a small torch. Just go Quick over the sticker to heat it up. And the you can remove it a bit easier.
Ooh new jigsaw, block plane and card scraper.
+Aleksamaker yes yes and no, the card scraper is old :-)
Another great job Keith what spray is it that you use
+Eddy Flynn it's just the cheapest spray varnish I found on eBay it's called Motip spray varnish I think. It's decent stuff actually would buy again
Nice job. The resulting board, though, is rather small. ;)
Nice,
Looks great, maybe add a base with draws for the pieces ???
+Lee Palmer that's part 2
4:23 My question is: "How to improve contrast?". Thanks.
Just use different woods
If you dont mind , where do you get that spray varnish ?
It has a look of the pound shop about it.
+Andrew Joy it was cheap on eBay I got a few cans for not much money it's by "Motip" and it's pretty decent stuff
Rag 'n' Bone Brown Motip is actually a professional brand and delivers high quality stuff. Use it a lot at my work. The colours are also great. One of the few brands were you can actually speed thinks up with an heat gun (wouldn't try that with the varnish)
Great project btw. Pretty easy to make, but it looks great!
+Bart B thank you! Interesting. I've found that the varnish dries remarkably quickly especially in sunlight- touch dry within 2 minutes
Wow amazing what you can do with extra peices of wood.
Those original chess pieces you have are called the Lewis chessmen, It's a copy of a chess set dating back to the 12th century. The real set is in the British museum.

Diluted dishwash liquid removes sticker from wood
I’m new to woodworking. I want to make a chessboard for an anniversary gift. I’ve seen multiple versions and all of them glue the board to mdf or plywood. Why is that?
Because solid wood warps twists and bends and plywood or MDF doesn't
Also it wouldn't be particularly strong without the re enforcement and extra glue surface
@@RagnBoneBrown thank you for your prompt response. I genuinely appreciate it.
What brand router bits do you use?
cheap rubbish ones to be honest...
@@RagnBoneBrown I'm reletively local to you i think. Lowestoft. Do you shop buy? If so where around here is best. Wicks / screw fix or private companies? Or do you go to amazon etc?
next episode! please?
+Ethan Lee every Friday! :-)
I subscribed quite recently
(A few months ago) and went back and watched all of your previous videos. You have improved massively. Great work.
One thing - I can't help but feel your script is very rigid and you sound so stiff when you speak. It would be really refreshing if you just relaxed a little and not worry about pronouncing every "t" in your sentences.
Cheers,
Dennis
+Dennis Maratos thank you! I try to speak clearly because if I spoke in my usual Norfolk accent drawl many people wouldn't understand me
excellent project, oil finishes are great!I've never heard that accent, maybe in your next q&a you can say something using your everyday accent.
Do you listen to Rag N Bone Man the UK based Blues singer?
I can’t stand him tbh, he stole my name 😩
Nice. Try some WD-40 to remove the stickers..
Use a heat gun to remove the labels.
The colors of the chess board are similar
does anyone from England know where i can get some decent wood working tools for cheap?
I browse Gumtree quite often in the 'DIY Tools and Materials' section to see what people are selling. There sometimes aren't many tools on there but you just have to be persistent in checking over time and being patient.
Callum Cain check out the UK workshop forums. Lots of woodworkers sell stuff on there. It's 2nd hand but quality and a lot cheaper than going to places like Administer directly
Local car boots some need a bit of clean up but work fine
thanks
thanks
First and tell me how do you like that table saw stand after few months now.
+Aleksamaker very happy with it thank you
The squares are too small, should be 57mm or at least 50mm
Rip-n-dip shirt?
+matt jensen yep!
Rag 'n' Bone Brown Do you skate? If so you should either make a longboard or something using old skate decks. Love your work!
does any one take chess seriusly?
Look up wood you make it chess board
sorry but 6:30 is the best part
Can you play chess?.....;-p
+Eye Toldyoosso nope!
