Default I Made A Chess Piece

Well, made some minor mods to the patterns, and got most of them
cut out this evening. They're l ooking good.

The king's still giving me some probs. Measured, remeasured, and
re-remeasured. Looked good, so cut the pattern out. Damn if the crown
isn't still just a shade off, even tho I took my time cutting it out,
and fo llowed the lines very nicely. But, no prob, It's just the two
sides coming off the very top, and I'll be able to wrap some sandpaper
around a roll of dimes and get it right in a few minutes. Otherwise the
kng is good. I'll have the last couple masters cut out in a day or so
and start making some chess pieces. Did find a void in a couple of the
pieces, but they're just the right size I'll be able to glue a popsicle
stick in, trim after drying, and viola, perfect. Nothing like using
professional level tools. LOL
