Now these do look good.

Any of you chaps turned any chess or draught pieces etc?



These others were 3D micro machined:-

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!  :)

raynerd:
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:

bry1975:
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.
