Bamboos or a bonsai?
Told you, do not look!
Look what I found!

This image prompted a question that I want to ask you. Would you be interested in buying a similar teapot (with a real board position, without 2nd line stone in the opening)? Do you think there might be a demand for it in the West?
No. No.
For me, not really although I do generally appreciate objects pointing to our game. But this one is awful (my taste) and I feel uncomfortable by lack of stability and heavyness, compared to the usual round shape
I made a board and pieces out of trash wood.
Musashis are from an old broom stick. It didn’t look so worm-eaten at first, but the pieces are all damaged. Probably I’ll replace them with something else.
Anyway, it’s good enough to have a few games with my youngest daughter.
The strategy is fairly simple and I think that Benkei has no chances against a careful player.
Very nice set of bowls. I would love to get my hands on a set of ceramic go bowls but they’re hard to find
