I've used a set of Dem-Bart checkering tools for checkering repairs to various checkered panels for almost 50 years without a hiccup. I like their quality and simplicity.

For large re-checkering jobs I have a checkering lady who knocks it out for me and has been checkering for over 35 years.

This L.C. had badly damaged areas on each side of the grip panel from a gun rack of some sort. A large amount of steaming was required first to raise the panels. I then recut the damaged areas on each side and re-finished the stock.
