    It’s been brought to my attention that the queen is always placed on her own color. In this video I made the mistake of doing it backwards. Thank you to the various people who helped me realize this. I do hope you all get something out of watching this other than how NOT to put the chess pieces on the board. Thank you all very much

    I was looking for different ways of making a chessboard and even if I don't really like the color of this chessboard, the process of making it is truly clever and "easy" to do. Thanks for this video

    Really cool twist on the resin vids out there. Most unique and creative by far. Great dyes and application of every step. Nice to see your little shop muse out there too! Well done, Big C. Troy
