wow beautiful !!! now you achieved perfection. The size of the pawn always bother me with the standard Chessnut pro pieces.

@whiggi 4 месяца назад

yeah, i must say the size of the pawns never bothered me, but its another hidden bonus to getting this set now! :)

@tomascardell 6 месяцев назад

Well done! I'm thinking of doing the same thing! I'm curious about the possibility to add some extra weight to the pieces... I saw somebody talking about filling out the cavity with some heavy putty, whatever that is :)

@whiggi 6 месяцев назад

yeah that has been done and from what I know was fine. i could have done that aswell, however I dont mind the weight of these pieces. but it is definitely doable, just have a wider hole drilled to make more room for the putty :)

@tychay 5 месяцев назад

tungsten putty. It's used to weight fishing lines and pinewood derby cars in USA Cub Scouts. Not cheap stuff though.

@stevesun11001 2 месяца назад

The FIDE set used in the tournaments weigh only 1000 grams/set of 34 pieces…

@mark100net1 5 месяцев назад

Hi did India Chess Art charge you at all and/or make you pay full retail in exchange for drilling the holes?

@whiggi 5 месяцев назад

hi Mark, there was no additional fee for the drilling. I purchased the set at the price they had advertised 😀 just left a note when ordering, but also reached out to them on whatsapp to confirm the hole's would be drilled.

@vikramsoug5528 6 месяцев назад

i also dont like the chess nut pro pieces they need to improve the pieces , pieces not good then we don't feel like playing

@whiggi 6 месяцев назад

from what i understand after i purchased my set they did improve the quality a bit, and also released the premium pieces. agreed that a good set certainly does raise the motivation to play :)

@stephenelliott7071 3 месяца назад

@@whiggi It's a shame they don't sell those premium Chess Nut Pro pieces separately (they only sell the regular pieces separately).

@whiggi 3 месяца назад

@stephenelliott7071 really? I thought the premium were only available separately. If you want them let me know I might be able to find it for you

@stephenelliott7071 3 месяца назад

@@whiggi Thanks! I'd love the premium set. The overall system is fantastic and I can even play against my favourite computer AI (Shredder) on the laptop using the quality board. The premium pieces seem so much better though.

@@stephenelliott7071 here is an affiliate link to the premium set. If only I had of waited a month before getting my set, I think I definitely would have gone for the premium pieces vs the standard chessnutech.com/products/premium-whole-wooden-chess-piece-set-for-chessnut-pro?_pos=3&_sid=b903ee6b8&_ss=r&sca_ref=4357106.hVn0TaYtD2 If you decide to get this my code could be applied which will get you an additional 17% (I think, or something near that) off at checkout, however if it doesn't the code is WHIGGI If you do get them make sure to let me know! I'd love to hear your thoughts when you get them!
