The "Checkering Primer" page was a quick overview of how checkering is done and the tools needed. This page has become quite popular, so instead of the one page brief introduction that was available here, I am in the process of finishing a book that covers checkering in more detail.
This fully illustrated book will cover in-depth the tools and techniques required to plan, layout, cut and finish your checkering job. No release date has been set, so please check back for details on purchase and availability.
