Description

Presenting you: my iteration of a Roll up Chess set!
Please like, share, download, boost, rate and all the amazing good stuff!

 

 

I have seen many roll-up chess models, but none that would fit my needs. What I really wanted:

  • Print in Place
  • With lids for secure storage
  • Mechanical hinges
  • Printable without AMS on any 20x20 printer (see below)

That said, with AMS it is a breeze! Just 2 plates and 3 colors for the non-magnetized version.

Yes, there is a magnetized version!

 

Non magnetized version:

No need for extra parts and my preferred one. Prints on two plates with very minimal purge waste. However, be careful with the placement of your pieces, it is a small (travel sized) board! Also windy and uneven playing environments are not recommended.

 

Magnetized version:

As you might imagine, the pieces *snap* in place! This print profile prints on four plates and has pauses built in for when to add the magnets (5x3mm). Make sure you use the right orientation! All magnets in the chess board need to be oriented the same way, and in the pieces they have to be places opposite to those in the chess board. Mark your magnets beforehand or use another technique, but make sure you keep track of this! I am also not sure how different nozzles act to the magnets, please compare the attractiveness of your nozzle to your bed surface beforehand.

 

Other than that, pull the board from the build plate and start playing!

 

For non AMS or other branded printers:

You need at least a 20x20 printer and modern printers might give more of a fuzz than older ones, so proceed at your own risk. The technique used accomplish this the Multipass Multicolor technique by Make Anything

 

For the models / example g-codes to accomplish this, visit the same model on my Printables account (Rossero)

 

Happy Printing!
