Chess set pics for @JohnMorris

[PostalTom]

Most of you have already seen these pictures, but John asked for links as he missed them the first time around.  So here goes.

Wow and wow Tom! I love this! Very nice sir!

Perfection on the board itself, the drawers, are they completely flocked? All surfaces? Did you turn the chess pieces too?

[PostalTom]

Thank you John.  Only the interior surfaces of the drawers are flocked.  The tops of the dividers and the sides are painted with the adhesive paint used in the flocking process.  And yes, I turned all the chessmen.

Wow Tom!!!!!! Those look unreal, I mean really wonderful! Congratulations on a job well done, I'd be proud to have that in my home all day long, so how'd the recipient like it?

[PostalTom]

He was really happy, and shows it off to everyone.

Obviously! Now, who's playing and who's kicking whose butt?

I played a little bit in junior high and high school, but not since then.  My grandson and I played a couple of games, and he won both games quickly.  I don't know who he is playing with now, but it's not me.  We haven't talked in a while, but I will ask him if he is using the set the next time I talk to him.  My guess he is the kicker and not the kickee of the butt.
