Chess Pieces

I bought a new chess set. It's just a cheep plastic thing but certainly good enough to make a match with.  I filled the hollow plastic chess pieces with patching plaster that I already had in the house. It gives the pieces a bit of "heft" in the hand and they don't feel as cheep as they are.
I cut holes in an old cardboard box to hold the pieces upside down until the plaster had a chance to dry.
