I finished another hand-cut chess set, my previous set was a venice inspired. This was hand cut on a scroll saw, this one is a neoclassical made from black limba and white limba. I am corking the bottoms now for the final touch. I'll have close to 40 hours in this set.
My one regret is using the polyurethane to finish. I should have stuck with Danish oil for the finish, I think this finish looks too thick.
