As a typographer who is also an occult enthusiast, I’ve always been fascinated with spirit boards in many different ways.
I call my creations alphabet boards, communication boards, or talking boards. I believe that we talk to ourselves, and to others, through the subconscious, by way of using the alphabet system laid out on the board.
They are generally 12x12" or 12x18", and 3/4" or 1" thick, made from a variety of different hard woods like Cherry, Elm, Swiss Pear, or Dark Walnut.
Planchettes are never included. I rarely make them. The act of using a planchette with any of these boards will be part of a personal journey that is unique to you. Let the search for your own unique planchette be the first step you take.

Although I do have a few signature design concepts that I replicate, they always come out differently based on the board itself, and no two boards are ever really alike.
Sometimes I work with a pyrography pen, sometimes I carve the letters out with a dremel and fill them back in with epoxy resin. All boards are sanded down to be completely smooth on both sides.
Custom made boards start at $300 and can be completely customized in a variety of standard and experimental ways. Listed below are some options. Let us know what some of your original ideas are.
