Hey Charles, I think someone posted an article, a long time ago on the Audyssey list, about a magnetic chess set with a program in it that could move the pieces for you etc, which was reasonably accessible. If you find that post, maybe that would be what you need?

Does anyone know where a potential blind chess player can get a chess set of the Staunton design at a reasonable price? Also, a mechanical or digital chess clock, again, at a reasonable price? I can find neither. Thanks. The chess sets that I find either cost $100 or more, or they are of such a poor quality, I would not take one for free. I cannot even find a decent mechanical clock, and I think that the only digital one I can find is far overpriced, again, well above $100.  I am also looking for learning of the game for a beginner who is blind. I understand that the courses from Hadley are no longer available, which is a real shame, because they were excellent. If you think you're finished, you! really! are! finished!! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
