Description
My attempt at a minimalist chess set. The king is 85mm / ~3.34 inches. The pawns all have a cutout for a standard m12 x 1.75 x 20mm hex bolt, and all the other pieces have cutouts for m16 x 20mm hex bolt. This is a cheap way to give the pieces some added weight.
This is still very much a work in progress as I am still unsure about the design for the king. Any suggestions are welcome.
Probably best to print these with a silk filament, but part of what makes 3d printing great is you can use whatever material you want. No supports should be required for these, as the bolt cutout has been tapered at the top. The pawn looks pretty good at 0.2mm layer height.
