So I did... I changed the playing surface, sanded the wood, sanded e polish the hinges and latches and added the compartment for the pieces, cups and dice. This compartment was made from a wood that I brought from Brazil called Imbuia. This wood is not available for sale in stores, the part I brought was an old door that I dismantled to use (notice that it still has a piece of screw carved into it). The checkers are Bakelite checkers that I also sanded and polished to look like brand new again, they measure 1,5 inch
