Hi All,

Just interested in what you all use as a chessboard including nicely crafted pieces.

This could go a little further if anyone has pictures of exotic type of chessboards,clocks and even rares scoresheets too.

thanks in advance!

I've been alternating between a plastic Drueke set and this wooden set I've had for about 25 years.

I use Staunton as well. It's quite nice.

Well, some time has gone by since I last posted here. I'm now alternating between the Drueke, my old wooden set and this: http://houseofstaunton.com/Store/product_name=The+New+York+1924+Series+Chess+Set+and+Board+Combination/exact_match=exact/user-id=/password=
