Not Flat Wobble Chess Set
I stole this idea from a picture I found on a pinterest board. I was so intrigued by the cool factor, I had to figure out how to do it. Made of solid walnut, maple and brass. The weight of the brass half-balls keep the pieces standing upright. They will not lay on their sides. Guaranteed to hold their position through an earthquake. Measures 16" x 16"

I've always felt like I had to have a purpose and that purpose is to build and create. Have been running my own remodeling business for the last 30 yrs. specializing in kitchen and bath renovations, basement finishing, additions, etc. These days, I've evolved mostly into building and installing custom bath vanity cabinets, built-in desk and shelf units, custom mantles and fireplace surrounds.
Have slowed down a lot since I'm close to retirement age. but i'll always be creating something as long as my legs, hands, and mind still function.
My goal is to step out of the construction field and generate a modest income from the art work I create in my basement garage shop.
I try to be unique and original with my designs and tend to challenge myself with projects which avoid the straight, flat and square standards. Heck, most anybody can make something flat, square or cubed.
I love a challenge and will continue looking for new ones.
