Billwmeyer Posted Wednesday at 09:19 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 09:19 PM Hi all! I hope I can get some leads here. I made a Nautical chess set from plans I got from J. E. Plans several years ago. I'm wanting to make a mid-evil themed set for my other grandson. I'm having no luck finding plans. I'm trying to find various plans and blend them into a set. My thoughts are: Pawns - small knight or possibly a shield Rook - a castle Knight - a dragon Bishop - a wizard King - a mid-evil king of course Queen - a mid-evil Queen I've found a few pieces that may work, but I would appreciate any help that I can get. Thanks!! OCtoolguy 1 Quote
Scrappile Posted Thursday at 12:25 AM Report Posted Thursday at 12:25 AM (edited) Sorry, I cannot help. But you did remind me of JE Plans. Had not been there in a while. Someday I want to try building a couple of his engines, just for fun All I found is this one. It can be had in PDF file. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1778052988/plexiglass-puzzle-chess-set-laser-cut?ls=s&ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=medieval+chess+set+theme+pattern&ref=sr_gallery-1-46&pro=1&dd=1&content_source=fc2e9bc457f84ba71213a8e0fb501b800fc7cda6%3A1778052988&organic_search_click=1&logging_key=fc2e9bc457f84ba71213a8e0fb501b800fc7cda6%3A1778052988 Edited Thursday at 12:30 AM by Scrappile OCtoolguy 1 Quote

ChelCass Posted Thursday at 01:53 PM Report Posted Thursday at 01:53 PM I found this on Esty. Maybe this will help somewhat. We have some wonderful pattern makers here maybe one of them can help with a pattern. MidEvil.webp OCtoolguy 1 Quote
