Jianying Ji, your last message seemed to be regarding the purchasing of
fairy chess pieces. If you'd like, I could point you to some resources on
this site concerning various ways of making your own pieces quite
inexpensively, in both 2D and 3D. Additionally, I carve my own pieces out
of oak with files, chisels, and a Dremel tool, and have sold sets to a few
people, and I have also made a variety if fairy pieces for my own use.
Since I do not have a lathe, but should in a month or two, making custom
pieces should take much less time, and they would then be close to the
price range you mentioned. Just some thoughts... ***Hopefully what I've
just written is not ethically contrary to the policies of this site. If
this is the case, I'll delete it immediately, or, the editors simply
could. I do not own a business. Really it's more of a hobby, but a few
people offered to pay for some of the sets I've made.
