Weighted the bases: lead bullet noses, cheap Kester solder (humpf), sinkers, etc. followed by leftover epoxy, bathtub caulk, hot glue, whatever...used stuff up. De-burred and trued up the bases, too. HUGE difference. Can audition moves without knocking over 6 innocent pieces. Has the luxurious feel of a hand-crafted set. :lol5:

For the first time in my life, those human chess games made a little sense. :tin foil hat:
B x B

And, after your P X B
Kn - QB3
Now we both have an isolated center pawn and no queen.
Look familiar yet?
