I once asked a coworker who made chess boards how he did it. His process was:
* Cut the wood to strips the width of the squares.
* Glue the strips edge to edge alternating colors
* Rotate them 90 degrees and cut them again into strips
* Slide every other strip up one square and reglue
* Trim the edges to final board size.
I basically smacked my head with my palm. Felt so simple compared to what I was envisioning.
