state fair projects 2 and 3 are now in the books. after letting everything cure for a while, i secured the top to the base, and finished off this project.

Very nicely done Dan. The floating aspect and the Asian influence of the base are really attractive. I think you were right to go with the chess pieces you chose. Wooden ones would detract from the chessboard itself which should be the focus for the fair.
 
gonna be interesting to see what they pic apart this time dano.. i like that yur pieces are showing similar style which to me helps in the overall picture. to me once they see that clock they are gonna be looking for more Asian influence ,, like walking into a Chinese restaurant once your in you can never leave without eating some:)
