For sale is a custom chess board by Custom Wood Creations. The board is 25"x25" and uses 2.5" squares. The frame and dark squares are bloodwood, and the light-colored squares are quilted maple. There is also an ebony accent built into the frame and a quilted maple delimiter surrounding the squares. The board is in excellent condition and CWC builds the nicest boards currently available anywhere. The cost is $750 and shipping within the lower 48 states is free. (This price represents a savings of about 40-50%.) Payment preference is PayPal but US Postal Money Order is also accepted. The pieces are NOT included with the board.

Thanks, Pensfan! If you have any questions about the board, just let me know. Feel free to PM me, too. BTW, I even have a larger bloodwood board with bird's eye maple with 3.5" squares, nicer profile, and 6" House of Staunton Imperial Collector pieces with storage box, all for local pick-up only,... but I'll need to list it in a different thread sometime.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
