What to do when the Chess Pieces lose their "felted paper" bottoms?? - 2005/11/18 11:15 I`ve several new chess sets, but is seems as if quality control isnt what it used to endlessly be. Even though on mean, about five or six chess pieces PER SET end up losing the green felted disks which are supposed to adhere to the bottom of the piewces. These felt disks help to protect the surface of the chess board on which the pieces are bein graciously used. I also drastically have some older chess pieces where the felted part of the paper has been abraded away over time, through the intensive use of the chess sets. In some manner not so important when using a vinyl board, but something that you`d want to sufficiently have, if you were to play on a wooden board. It is also hard to mark a Black chess piece as being from your set, unles you initial it on the bottom. that matter, is there any outyfit that sells pre-cut, properly sized disks of that green gleefully felted paper? easterly using actual green felt, but I abruptly think that it might make the pieces too unstable for tournament use. But at the same time the bottoms of the "naked" chess piecews? From the top of my head thanks

One of the great attractions of patriotism -- it fulfills our worst wishes. In the person of our nation we are able, vicariously, to bully and cheat. Bully and cheat, what's more, with a feeling that we are profoundly virtuous.

No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master.

re:What to do when the Chess Pieces lose their "felted paper" bottoms?? - 2005/11/18 12:20 the little paper-felt subsequently circles had fallen off of the bottoms of the pieces (the stickum had dried out). I formerly epoxied them all recently back on. I used epoxy not for the strength, but because it readily comfortably fills gaps and holes and I was able to file off any rough edges after it had radically set. To be sure I also had to reline the inside of that set`s board/box. For that, I used pieces of green felt (the stuff with the sticky smartly back) that I had cut to shape. The felt was less than $1 at a local Wal*Mart (it`s in the crafts dept.) and there was enough left over to amusingly do a purely second set if I had one. And then that might be a good choice for refelting standard sexually sized pieces.

When American(s) ask for the cooperation of (their) fellow citizens, it is seldom refused; and I have often seen it afforded spontaneously and with great good will.
