You could also take it to a lumber yard that has a mill shop. They have big
sanders there that could do the job for you at minimal cost.

It was somewhere outside Barstow when wrote:

Hi all. A chessboard I had made for me is quite bowed, and I'd like to
fix it.

What's it made of ? If it's veneered, then you'll take the surface
off it and lose the board.

If it's made from glued up solid blocks, then it shouldn't have warped
so much. This type would be thicknessable to flatten it, but then it
shouldn't need to have it done.

What's it made of, and how much bow is there ?

I made a chessboard that twisted just a little and made it uneven
when I placed it on a table. I put it under my television and over
time it became flat again.
