Checkline: The Classic Space Tic Tac Toe Game

A 3d tioc tac toe game called checkline was one of the sources for the parts used to make the original tridimensional chess board prop.  It seems only fitting that tthe tridimensional chess set get remixed back into its original source parts.  Especially since this game can be seen on the set of Star Trek TOS in a few episodes, even if not as prominently as the famous tridimensional chess set.
