I used some of my refined silver from electrolysis to make a silver/gold chess piece set. The silver is .9999 pure silver but the "gold" pieces
are made from aluminum bronze (90% Cu, 10% Al). I used the lost-wax method to cast these pieces from a set of House of Staunton chess pieces
of the type used in the Spasky-Fisher Chess Tournament. I have some pictures and a link to the R & R investment gallery Website. Of course the pure silver
is soft and will dent easily. I bought a special chess set box to hold the pieces. The board is purchased too.
I thought the silver refining community would like to see this set.
