That's why I favoured the jack-plug method.
Perhaps you could represent the chess pieces with different styles of jack plug.
The Rean Jumbo could be a King
The Neutrik Crystal could be the Queen,
The Neutrik NP2X with the top that looks like a mitre could be a Bishop
This cuboid right-angled jack from Cliff could be a Rook
and the cheap plastic covered ones could be pawns.
(Can't find a suitable knight)
