How-to
Well i did my Pai-Sho Board making a square of 50 centimeters each side and the pieces of 2 centimeters of diameter. I made my own design of the pieces but having in mind that each design have to be perfect with symmetry. I made the game for two players: One with the flowers with white back and others with black back. All my pieces and the board are made of wood. (The picture is from other's game).
Pictures
A Pai Sho board in the making. It's made of plywood, and painted with acrylic paint. Oh and feel free to use the picture if you like :).
Here are some Pai Sho pieces made by Thomas:
They are laser-engraved plywood, hand-colored with Sharpie markers, which bled just a little. They're 1.5 inches in diameter, which would require at least a 27-inch board to play on. These may be all the designs that we actually see in episodes of Avatar, but Thomas may have missed a few.

I uploaded the pic and put the actually image up. I hope you don't mind. If you don't want it that way, I can put it to the way it was.

Go ahead and use the picture as you like. We made it so that other Avatar fans could be inspired to make a Paisho board like us :).

What names do you give the other tiles? As the white lotus tile is the only one name in the show.

In the show, all the Pai Sho boards are much larger than, for instance, if each square was 1 sq. inch, 18 inches. In Avatar, the boards are closer to 2ce that size, though I understand we might've trimmed them down for travel. Would it be better to make a large one, or a smaller one, in anyones opinion?
