32 day "Egyptian Chess Set" project with the longmill

Iā€™m still coming back here to ogle this piece and I have a request if you could be so kind. Iā€™d like to see the board from the front and sides if you could.

The chess pieces are so cool I kind of ignored the board at first but it looks nice as well. Iā€™m guessing it has two drawers, one for each players pieces. I canā€™t tell if the bottom of the drawer is painted red or felt but it looks well made and like the red wood accent on the drawer front for a bit of flair, like this piece needed more pizzaz. :laughing:

P.S. If you made this to sell I hope you get what itā€™s worth, a lot in my opinion. Wherever it ends up Iā€™m sure it will be cherished for for a long time!

Sorry Michael, I just did see your comment and request. Yes it sold for $4000.00.

I find it encouraging that you got a good price for this piece. I think I tend to undervalue my work, not that Iā€™ve made anything worth near as much as this. Still, itā€™s nice know that you can get good money for good work.

Keep up the good work, and thanks again for sharing!
