Compound cut chess set.

[Billwmeyer]

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!!

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.

I forgot about his engines!  Thanks.

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.
