Description

This is a #3dp remix. This is a travel game. Maybe a gift. This is a cool showcase. For this you need to be able to print teeny tiny.
 

Chess Pieces

The original version wasn't very printer friendly and had too tiny details. I ran into a problem slicing some pieces resulting in missing layers. I reworked the set, made it printable, cut out the magnets and brought out the details for the mini size. In the end I printed with a 0,2 mm nozzle and 0,1 mm layer height.

Board

The thingiverse version was too thick for the magnets to get a good grip and had the wrong size for the Altoid tin. This model is thinner (0,3 mm white + 0,2 mm black) and works nicely with the regular color change on any single extruder machine.
 

Tweezers

Kind of a gimmick, but the game is really so tiny it wouldn't be playable. I took a popular model and added cutouts for the magnets on them. Now they can sit in the lid of the chess box.

Magnets

Cylindric, silver, 4 mm x 2 mm
