I made a chess board in college.
I used a semi flat piece of dark gray slate. (should be able to find this at Home Depot or Lowes) I then masked off every other square with painters tape and used a spray-on polyurethane to gloss the open squares.
Gives a really neat look. I then attempted to make my own chess pieces out of pottery clay which ended up being more than a disaster.
If anyone tries this, let me know how it turned out for you. I might even post a pic of mine if I find the time.
