Reviving this old thread as I finally got around to attempting to recut the checkering. Made a pretty noticeable boo boo on one side but thought I might share my method of fixing it. It’s probably a “hack” by the standards of an expert but I’d be darned if I could detect the difference not knowing it’s there.
I found some epoxy putty and smeared it into the botched area, waited for it to dry, chased the checkering, the toothbrushed some stain in. I picked at it with some dental tools and it seems bonded to the wood.
