actually those are done with a tongue in groove setup with a 1/4" wide tongue going 3/8" deep into the outer wood...


the construction method is repeated over and over.

Very nice work Walleye. How long did it take you to complete the chess cabinet?

Hey, congrats on some very impressive work.

But why don't you carve a matching chess set? That would really complete the effect.
