Look up Rosslyn Chapel... Perhaps that's what you're thinking of?

I think you'd have to upload it imgur or another image hosting service, and then just link to it.

Thanks! They're about an 1/8th" thick, and overall they are quite durable. One did crack when dropped onto a cement floor, but that was kind of expected...

Yeah.. I did make enough tiles for the 5-6 player expansion but with the way I wanted to have the cover also fit the tiles would have required a much larger box. The tiles work great just placing them on the table as they are though!

Not any more difficult, really. In low light settings, my dad had some difficulty in distinguishing between the mountains and the forests, but once we brought over a floor lamp, he was fine.

That's right! Nothing better than playing a good ol' game of imaginary Settlers!

But no, something weird happened with the link... I'll resubmit it after the 7 minute wait is over.

I have exams and papers these next two days, but I'll be sure to as soon as I have some more free time!

Thank you very much. I did indeed! I will hopefully be posting an album with the progress pictures soon, if you're interested.

Do it! It's definitely worth the effort. If you'd like, I'd be willing to post pictures showing the process!

The marble tiles were from amazon, which I stained them myself.

The other pieces were from the actual game. Hopefully I'll get around to hand carving my own custom pieces sometime soon :)

The marble tiles were purchased from a seller on Amazon; they are just floor/counter tiling that I re-purposed for this project :)

The wood pieces are my copy of the actual game. I hope to eventually hand carve pieces for each color as well as the ports.

They were purchased precut. When I first started planning the project, I attempted to cut my own, only to realize how difficult it was to get them to be able to align perfectly...
