I admire anyone who is able to create something with his own hands :smiley:

the lines seem way too close to the edge though o.O won’t the stones fall off?

Adam, the stones I use are those decorative glass gems and they don’t have a standard size. It’s their “downsize” (rimshot plz) that when I get a too large one I’ve to change the stone if I’m playing on the borders. But I’ve played in my other self-made goban with some plastic standard size stones and they seem to fit well. I’ve created this one strictly with chinese standard measurements for a goban and planning to get a glass stone set that’s chinese size, so I think they should be ok! (ALso, I cheated a little in this one and bought the multiplex already cut the right size).

Edit: correcting a writing mistake

Pretty. What means “multiplex”?

I was also puzzled but it seems to be the same as or similar to plywood.
