- As a woodturning beginner, I thought I'd document my attempt to make a chess set. In this episode, I make a knight.
My thanks to all of you who posted a woodturning video. I have learned an enormous amount from watching all of you!
What a beautiful knight, you sir are truly talented.
Thanks for watching!
I really appreciate the short versions as I don't always have a lot of time for video watching. These chess pieces look fantastic.
Rick McQuay Grateful for your comments Rick! Thanks for watching!
I've just finished watching your videos on the making of a chess set and must complement you on the creation of a beautiful set that will be treasured for years to come. I would also like to say that you have exhibited a real talent for turning and I will be interested in watching your growing expertise as time goes by. Congrats on a job well done !
Where did you get the templates to glue on? Genius!
Great video and beautiful work.
I need a better lathe.

Swell! It was a pleasure to watch. You are very talented indeed.
Can such set be bought from a e-shop? What is the price? Do you have photos of THE FULL set of pieces?
hey there! you made a great figure, but I'm interested in how the head with the drill is fixed.. I have the same small lathe and everything is very similar to yours, but I want to make a drill head like the one you used when drilling the hole.. I saw that the part that goes in is in a cone.. but how is it secured so that it does not rotate while drilling the hole?
great James by watching. you making the pieces its made it easier for me to make them. thanks
Thanks for watching!
Splendid! Thank you for sharing.
That is one big knight! I need to make 4 of them way smaller. My pawns are 15/8" tall.
The horse looks good with out the eyes!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing!
Bravo James! very nice work :)
Отличная работа Джеймс! удачи!
Thanks for watching!
ok how much time did this really take? thats a beauty! i have seen the people doing the tournament sets from india do a set in a day except the knight which takes a day each!!
About 5 hours. Thanks for watching!
Hi,
Can you tell me what size screw you ended up using for mounting the pieces to you faceplate jog? You mentioned that you were using a 1/8” countersink bit. Did that change when you upgraded the woodscrew size?
Thanks for your help
Do u have an IG account as well?
2.5 inches. Thanks for watching!

Nice work...... what style chess set is that? Im thinking of getting ond with your style of knight
I modified a design based on a simplified Staunton set. Thanks for watching!
I really need a band saw.
Thanks for watching!
what type of lathe tools are you using

I think he meant what type of lathe chisels, skew, gouge, etc
Cool video, bad song.
Well, Thanks for watching!
This was sped up, so can you really say it was four minutes?
Aw. Thanks for the kind words. And thanks for watching!!
