Beautiful table. I look forward to seeing the video as always. The table at least initially looks similar to @QtothelevelQ3 walnut table.

I made this padauk and curly maple chess table a couple of months ago and finally got around to posting a video. If you're interesting in seeing how something like this is made, there are a lot of interesting tidbits in this one.  https://youtu.be/1trimnIxeqk

There goes my morning! Haha. Thank you for taking the time to create, edit and post the video Mike.

The Table is gorgeous. Also the Alexander's Bucephalus pieces. Was that from chessbazaar?

 

Yes, the client ordered the pieces from ChessBazaar and had them delivered to my house so that I could take photos of the board with his pieces. I drove everything up to DC and hand-delivered it to him. It's always nice to meet a client in person.

Yes, the design concept looks quite similar. Thanks for showing it to me.

@WoodUMakeIt Amazing video, the amount of precision that's needed is incredible.  The picture you choose to post here hardly does the table justice. That curly maple is gorgeous.

My Jaques Marshall Small Club Chess set arrived today. The surprise was that I thought it was a standard tournament set as the auction house had listed it incorrectly. I love the size and weight of the pieces. Definitely my favourite of my Jaques sets

The set came via the US where Ron Fromkin repaired minor damage to about 8 pieces and the box lid.

Beautiful set mister Skelt! I love the patina it has developed. Do you mean small club size as in 3-7/8"?

magictwanger

Same here.....Really nice and so is the box.

The set is a small club set with the king measuring slightly over 9.5cm. The pieces are significantly larger than my tournament sets which have kings measuring 9cm height and smaller pieces in general.
