Now these do look good. Any of you chaps turned any chess or draught pieces etc? These others were 3D micro machined:- http://www.vhf.eu/en/Samples/Moulds/3Dmicro-machining%E2%80%93chesspiecesofaluminium |

WOW :bugeye: those are way cool |
| Divided he ad:
The top ones look quality and real.... The lower set look like swanky 3D renderings? I'm going to assume that CAD and CNC were involved? ( But you know what they say about assume? ) Never much liked chess..... Though always liked the shaped characters found on many chess boards! :) Ralph. |

I`ve never tried turning any chess pieces but recon I could have a good go at parting a few buttons off some steel and brass bar and making some draught pieces .. :) ohh, then again, thinking about it, hummm parting...maybe not them either! :doh: |

They'd look good anodized maybe have the top half a different colour and screwed on? :ddb: And weight the base with a heavier metal. |
