In this video I am building a chess board that could also be a cutting board if you felt like it. I made a couple chess boards a few years ago, and always wanted to do a new version and improve some aspects from my original design, so that is exactly what I did. There are a lot of interesting techniques in this one including, checkerboard veneers, mitered frames, cross lap joints, and more.

Subbing just for that dumb chess pun at the beginning
12:39 🗿
I like the board but i dont know about the pieces. I think they should be detailed and not squared. its hard to tell them off when you are playing so i prefer the detailed(normal) pieces
Add the numbers and letters
I love how you said “Horse” not knight.
You can improve it by adding extra rooks queens bishops and knights for promotion
the pointy one is called the Bishop
How much for a chess board?
Excellent idea with squared pieces!
Very nice contrast.. beautiful looking board.
Chess, lad's!
Do you sell these?
Because I wanna buy one
U definitely an ISTJ
Actually its not a castle but a rook.
“The horse, the castle on the pointy one”😂😂😂😂😂😂
horse castle and pointy one 😭😭
Foureyes , reyes can
Would love to have this chess set. There is just one thing tho, there is no weights in the bottom of the pieces and also there isn’t any padding on the pieces as well, other than that its perfect
You owe me reimbursement for my hospital bills for the physical pain you caused by that pun
You mean Knight took and the king
You mean the Knight rook and king
I remember making a chess set out of paper in french because it was a free period and myself and a friend wanted to play chess. So our retarded asses spent longer making the board than playing.
Amd the pointy one💁
its just thickness 5:17
this took simplifying to a next level
where can i buy this i would love to have one
ngl i had no idea what he was doing half the time but i rlly enjoyed the vid
I absolutely love this set. You have almost inspired me to make a set like this for myself. Stunning. Though because i play chess i feel obligated to point out that there is literally jo way the bit at the end was a checkmate. Losing, yeah. Should probably resign but it made me stop and look 😂
this looks so modern and good this is what chess should look like
great idea and design is awesome! very appreciate for sharing your video! Thank you very much!😍
left as soon as he made the chess pun
I love your channel but this is the ugliest chess set of all time.
as a 1000 rated chess player i get offended from pointy one castle and horse
Ah yes. Bishop: the pointy one
ah yes, the horse, the castle, and the pointy one!
Beautiful…
Hol' up, did you just call the bishop?….. the pointy one!?
Your all wrong it's knitgh rook and bishop
Chess i can!
As a certified chess player who has well over 1,000 Elo I can confirm that the pieces are called "Dad, Mom, Castle, The Pointy One, Horse, and the Baby"
The title says the castle and the pointy one bruh it's a rook and a bishop😂😂😂
ahh yes the horse the castle and the pointy one are my favourite
"Θicnus"
"Θicni"
not a fan of the geometric pieces but the chess board itself im in love
This is chess has stolen by Rabbids
This make me want to learn carpentry, I've done a lot of drawing in scale so maybe some type of drafting course would be nice.
Chess players: Its named "Knight" not "Horse"!!!
valorant's new minima chess board
"The Babies, The Castle, The Horse, The Pointy One, The Mom, The Dad"
Perfect representation of life
i love how the board is so simple, if i could buy this, i would.
We get a lot of comments on this video about Shaun referring to the pieces as "the Horse, the Castle, and the Pointy One". Some people think he is serious (probably a vocal minority)… well let me just clear the air. He 100% thinks they are called the Horse, the Castle, and the Pointy One. I haven't had the heart to correct him, and all of your commenting won't help as he can't read, and doesn't know how to operate a computer. For the record, he also refers to the Queen, King, and Pawns, as the Mom, the Dad, and the Babies respectively.
