I don't think my picture worked, but the last chess board I made was of Australian wood, with a trillion layers of French polish on it. It's a shame I can't remember the name of the wood I used, but it has some fantastic grain.
But yeah, I'm basically think that I've made a wooden chess board, and although I may one day make a better one, for the moment I'm thinking of some unusual ideas to make the board. I don't want anything too strange or abstract that looks weird 'for the sake of looking weird', but a fully-usable board made of unusual items, like computer fans, coins, etc.
