    So if I read that right you are asking $240.00 for the full set? I'm not saying its over priced or anything, just wondering if I read it right. It looks good though, nice job.

    Like in any part of life to accomplish a take, the pawns are an extremely important part of a Chess game. Often over looked because they only move 1 space an in 1 direction. the do form a very important wall.

    As for the set, it looks good. the only thing that I would say before selling it is to try and reproduce it. The reason it this was a first attempt, and like you said...
    here is a chess set I tried
    I'm not saying that the work is bad, just some things are a little uneven and such, if you are looking for a critic.

    32 x 5 = $160

    personally what I would do is keep it. the white side looks much better than the black, in my opinion, and I'm not sure that the image is giving it justice, but that is what I can tell from the image.

    I do think that a chess set is a great idea and accomplishment. Keep it up.

    BNI board not included-------

    Pricing is always an issue I always want to get as much as I can!!! I always try to have a variety of price and size and complexities which seems to enable some sales even with super unique items..... anyways not to be so wordsy and all If i make 3 more sets and sell the best for as much as I can and the least bestest at around 100$ bucks thats will still be around 3$ per piece and I should hopefully be better at making them after making so many chess pieces.... but right now I will see what goes on as far as just showing this body of work..... thank you so much for looking and saying everything because it is very good and important. jes
