I am also going to get a tall, flat piece of tree trunk and carve a chess board on top!

Where did you learn how to carve chess sets?

I don't know how to do it, but when I tried it, it turned out pretty well grin.png

Here's a tip! : It is best to put some nice varnish on your done carve-work so it gives it a more fancy and professional look! wink.png

Would be cool if there were more made in the USA chess makers. You see alot of boardmakers but not pieces.
