Woodturn a Russian Chess Set

I demonstrate how to woodturn a Russian chess set patterned from a Soviet Era Russian design. Woodturning an heirloom chess set is a fun project for a woodturner requiring only modest skills. Because you repetitively use only a few tools, it can be a great skill building project. I used Bradford Pear and Persimmon and dyed the dark set green. ------------------------------- Here is the link to my complete chess set playlist: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases from my Amazon shop You can download demonstration handouts, downloadable copies of articles I have published, and other useful woodturning information available on my website including a Feb 2020 article I published on making a chess set in the American Woodturner.
