Default chess board needs some pieces...

laments:
snip that I can afford. (Yes, JOAT, I saw your idea for the hardware
chess set. I'm thinking about that too.) snip Ideas?
Gods above. For some strange reason, even the Woodworking Gods are
taking pity on you. Probably because they're cheapskates too. They
told me to do this, wasn't my idea. You needed to look, as this has
been posted several times, and I think one or two similar, even. Use a
chunk of 2X2, 2X4, or just glue together some thinner pieces. In fact,
I think they'd look way cool, scaled up to at least 6", but even better,
to a foot or two, plenty easy to do. No prob.

If you want, I suppose you can even name them after yourself, after
all, that's apparently what Larry did. Either that, or that's where he
got his last name. http://www.houseofstaunton.com/jaques1.html
