Chess Rook

First I made a base using a cylinder.
Next I added a torus, for design, and another cylinder and cut it out with a torus.
Then I sketched a polygon with a sloped side. I then I used the revolve tool to extrude it.
I added cylinders to the top to expand the top face.
Finally I added another cylinder to the top of the rook. I sketched castle pieces and extruded them to give it the right look.
This is how my rook came out of the printer.
Creating the base for the rook was simple; as I did it exactly the way as my pawns base. The top part of the rook was the most difficult to get right. I had to sketch the castle pieces multiple times for all of them to get them to look exactly as I wanted them to. It took my five versions, or iterations, to get to my final product.
