Yesterday I found a blog entry written by the author who thought paying $30 for a shogi board and $10 for shipping would be expensive. So he made his own set by himself. If you feel sympathy with him, the following article will be must-see. He explained what he did with many photos there.

So, I decided, quite suddenly, that I should just build my own.
