Default Patterns for Chessmen

Does anyone know how to obtain chessmen patterns for carving in wood? I have an abundance of Basswood and would like to try carving a set. Does anyone out there in the audience want to buy some Basswood? If you are in Western Oregon I can deliver some.

Thanks Rick. One of these long Winter days I'll get around to carving some Chess pieces.

Moved to "General" forum.

Let us know if you found the patterns that you are looking for.

Are you looking for a general pattern or a theme?
