Custom & Thematic Chess Sets

$100

I love making thematic chess sets. These are examples of my work (the music set is still available for sale! Contact me if interested). The music set features a board made from vinyl records and CDs with cassette binding and the pieces are made from instrument parts. The aircraft set (sold) is made from airplane engine parts and aluminum from the wing. you can watch these get made here: Aircraft: https://youtu.be/T1kzmDUsKuU https://youtu.be/v7on6bU3tmU Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjj7a8cXWBU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnDA8eYQFc4 be good, tim

I am an independent artist/artisan working exclusively in reclaimed, recycled, upcycled and found materials.

i make the useless useful again. i make worthless things priceless.

from conception, to making it to sweeping up, i am a one-man operation - by design.

my work is not for everyone. my customers are people who want truly unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that are made fairly and ethically from locally salvaged materials - with as small a footprint as i can muster.

i will make and ship things all over the united states (depending on size) but i prefer to work regionally (Boston to NYC and thereabouts).

listed on this page are some pieces i've made for others and some pieces i have available for sale. but what i really want to do is design and make what YOU want. let's do it!

be good,
tim

oh yeah, at youtube.com/timsway you will find more than one hundred video of things i've made.
