i prefer a 3 7/8" on a 2.5" square. but that is just me.
i have seen 3.25" king on 2" squares and that is OK, but much smaller than 2" square and i'm uninterested.

don't forget base width. I think for some sets that can be an issue for going up a square size.
If the pieces are all proprtional to one anouther then the square size should hold four pawns. Or so i have heard.
What are your opinions of the size of a boards' squares versus the king height?
To me a typically proportioned 3 3/4" king is perfect on a 2.25" square.
What do you think the square sizes should be if a king is 2.5", 3", and 3.5" tall?
I'm considering making some boards...
