Assembly instructions

It's recomendad to paint the chessboard parts before joining and glueing all them in one big board.

A good idea is to color the margin of the board with brown color ( like wood) and color the interior margin using a grey color ( like a metalic border ) You also can color the white squares using a yellow color ( as if you had an old chess game ).


Cut each part following the edge and the tabs it has.

Take care of the process since you don't want to get a irregular chessboard.

 

When you have all pieces ready, distribute them correctly on the table to avoid confusing the correct order.

Glue the tabs and join piece by piece starting from one corner.


 

Join the pieces the best you can avoiding the cut marks. Watch out the horizontal and vertical lines of the squares.

 

Following the last instructions you have the chessboard ready

Keep the chessboard in a dry place for some hours and then you'll be ready to enjoy playing with this strategy game.

Checkmate with the instructions!
