Go products mainly focus on chess sets and a few items. Among them, the main categories of Go boards include torreya wood, catalpa wood, new torreya wood, etc. The board requires clear wood grain, good elasticity, and long-term use without deterioration. Insect-proof and other special conditions. Xiaoxi Weiqiyuan believes that the best choice for making chessboards is torreya, also known as torreya, which is a protected rare tree species. Because torreya resources are rare and precious, under the policy of resource protection, it has been switched to use in recent years. Use other coniferous species such as: hemlock, fir, spruce. In the chess equipment world, it is called the new chess piece. At present, the so-called new torreya trees in Chinese chess sets are mainly hemlocks. There are relatively many new torreya tree species in the Japanese chess set industry, such as osmanthus, cypress, hemlock, etc. Most of the products on the market are also new chessboards. During the drying process, the Go board must be resistant to cracking for long-term use and avoid the natural defects of the wood. When selecting materials, we generally choose logs with a diameter of 1~1.5M, 1M above the root of the tree, and logs under the first branch of the tree. When taking materials, avoid the core part of the tree by 5~10CM, especially when it contains the core, it is easy to crack, so it is not easy to obtain logs that can meet the above requirements. This shows the preciousness of wooden chessboards, especially the wooden chessboards with scripts. Most Go boards are currently made of wood, but bamboo products are also widely loved by ordinary people because of their superb cost performance. There are many kinds of wood that can be used to make Go boards, including various old mahogany, rosewood and even sunken wood. However, the most popular one at present is new torreya. New torreya chessboards are relatively not very expensive, while chessboards made of torreya are more expensive. There are many, but the two woods are very similar in appearance, so the new Torreya chessboard is gradually becoming popular mainly to replace the Torreya chessboard.
