"Hi! My name is Windy St. George and this is how to make game pieces. If you've lost pieces to your game and you want to play it, but you don't want to buy a whole new game, you don't have to. You can usually replace pieces, you can find objects around your house such as a penny, or a little toy, or other little objects to substitute for objects, token, player token that you may have lost in your games. You can also ransack board games that you have in your house like Monopoly and use the tokens out of that, any small toy will do. If you're missing something else like a timer, you can buy timers and dice at your local game hobby store, fairly inexpensively. You can get tokens like this, this, they are sold at hobby stores. They stood up like a flat marble. You can also get them in bulk at pet stores, they're sold as fish rocks to put at the bottom of aquariums, they're very good for counters. Use counting blocks. You buy tokens or pons, men, at most game stores. If you want to get fancy, you can buy pewter figurines. If you wanted to be really fancy, you could paint them yourself and you can get this to look like Eddie Fantasy or regular sort of hero that you may have lost at the board of your game. They even sell them where they are pre-painted. That's how you make game pieces to replace pieces you may have lost."
