Hello

What's considered the ideal shape of a biconvex go stone?
For example is not an ellipse because is sharper.
Could yo tell me where to find a diagram of the cross section (lateral view), please?
What size?, maybe 22x9mm?


thanks

The ideal shape for stones is alive, everything else is personal preference. :mrgreen:
