[nfbwatlk] Chess set recommendations

[Jedi]

Noel,

The Independence Market at the NFB has a nice wooden one for $25 or so. The
pieces are easily distinguishable in terms of shape, and I think the colors
are marked tactually. They also have pegs on the bottom which easily slide
into holes in the board so you can feel the board without accidentally
moving the pieces. BTW, you can buy it online.

Respectfully,
Jedi

I am in the market for a chess set that is conveniently used by the
blind.  Does anyone have any recommendations?  I know very little about
chess but need to learn!
