As soon as we released our topiary MegaChess sets to train bushes and vines into chess figures, we were surprised to learn that some customers thought the wire frames were all they needed.

Not only is the art unique, but it is the lightest way to make a large, strong chess piece. A 3-foot king weighing just 4 lbs. Even a 6-footer can easily be lifted with one hand.

MegaChess wire frames are rugged ¼" diameter welded steel. They are coated with black or white Rustoleum to prevent rust indoors or out — sun, rain, snow, and even kids.

MegaChess wire frames store well since they stack partly inside one another.

For theft deterrence, you can run a bicycle cable through these MegaChess pieces, and padlock them like rental row boats.

Each wire frame MegaChess piece is hand made by the talented artist Chris Myers to insure that these metal sculptures will be the talk of any garden party.
