This is not only a chess set, it is also a puzzle, although it is a very simple puzzle. It is a full chess set on both sides, and the board is made up of 64 pieces connected with dovetails. 32 of them are printed in black and 32 in white filament. They are put together as shown in the photos. The fact that the board is collapsible allows for it to be stored in unconventional ways.
One set of 16 chess pieces is printed in black and one in white filament. Everything prince without supports, other than the Knight (which needs minimal supports on its chin) and the King (which needs supports on the cross). Print in PLA or PETG. Every piece has a hole in the bottom to accommodate for weights to be glued in. The hole is 15 mm in diameter and on every piece other than the pawn the hole is 10 mm deep, the pawn's is 5 mm deep. The pieces are designed simply.
Peace list:
- 64 board pieces (32 in white, 32 and black filament)
- 16 pawns (8 in white, 8 and black filament)
- 4 Rooks (2 in white, 2 and black filament)
- 4 Knights (2 in white, 2 and black filament)
- 4 Bishops (2 in white, 2 and black filament)
- 2 Queens (1 in white, 1 and black filament)
- 2 Kings (1 in white, 1 and black filament)
(The colors of the board are of course up to the person printing the model, I just chose to portray this render with traditional colors)
