    Thank You and the project of the month is the best investment I have made in a long time. It is nice not having to lay out you program in designer. For me that is sometimes the hardest thing to do.

    All you need to do is load the mpc on the memory card and you are on your way.

    Yes I have 4 of tops done this week. I'm making them for some of the younger members of my family. I still have to do the the bases. They will have a small drawer to store chess pieces. They are made out of mahogany and maple. I want to incorporate some carving in the mahogany bases but not sure what yet.

    Here is a good tutorial if any one is intested in making one. They are very easy to make.

    Picture below is just out of the drum sander (80 grit so there is still dust in the grain. Board is 17" square.

    Wonderful! Thank you for the link - I think I'm getting the "itch" to build some chessboards!
