| When I was learning to checker, I found it very useful to practice on axe, hatchet, maul, saw handles, etc. I had no luck finding old stocks where I lived. First one was uuuuugly, but they got better! I improved quite a few such woodworking and gardening tools belonging to several neighbours, before deciding that I did not have the patience to become really good. You are definitely correct to practice a lot first! I was a teenager then, but it now more than thirty years later: On a visit to the old neighbourhood, it was quite fun to still see several of my learning attempts still lurking in various garages and tool boxes! |

| I practiced on a couple of tool handles too, then did a few cheap .22s, found out I could do a fairly decent job of checkering - if I used borders - but that it took me twenty times as long as a pro and I was not getting any faster. So quit. Fifty years ago. May still have the tools somewhere. |
