If you are looking at this board in hopes of getting yourself a really nice board, I'd move on. This board will play, but I'm worried about its durability.

Getting such a piece of wood, five or 6 inches thick, with beautiful grain on the playing surface and without serious flaws and/or cracks, is not so easy. Traditional goban with legs is made from a single piece of wood. If you thought $83 for a 2" board seemed cheap that is because it is. The real problem in making a traditional goban with legs, aside from carving the legs properly, is getting suitable wood. I removed a large section of traditional wax from my goban because it was really dirty, and replaced it with Renaissance.

It is readily available on the web, not too expensive, and can't be distinguished from Japan Sumac wax. Blacks efficiency 2 + 9 / (N - 6) Whites efficiency (N - 7)2 / 4 (N - 8) For a 1919 goban, this yields an I-value of 1.07, for larger gobans the value drops below 1. Reversible Go Board (Goban): 19x19 playing field on one side and 13x13 on the other The 19x19 side is for standard gameplay, while the 13x13 is great for. The softness of the wood also means that stones do not make a very satisfying sound when played. For those looking to wax a goban - I've found the perfect solution - Renaissance micro-crystalline wax polish. A modern, exciting board made to traditional standards of quality. Classic yellow gold color provides optimal contrast between the board and stones. Yellow Mountain Imports Bamboo 2-Centimeter Reversible 19x19 / 13x13 Go Game Board (Goban) 163 65.95 65.

The grid appears to be a bit fuzzy, my guess is that this is a result of the soft wood or lazy manufacturing (or both), but the finish does appear to be pretty nice.

Definition: A point on the board where a horizontal line meets a vertical line is called an intersection.Two intersections are said to be adjacent if they are distinct and connected by a horizontal or vertical line with no other intersections between them. The board came with a few dents in it out of the box (the packaging was good and I do not believe these happened in transit) and feels soft to the touch so I expect it will be getting many many more dents in it. Go is played on a plane grid of 19 horizontal and 19 vertical lines, called a board.
