Traditionally on a chess board or combine your powers to form the ultimate chess fighting robot.</p> <p>Had this idea a while ago and the tinkercad Chess Contest gave me the perfect opportunity to make it happen. Having to use Tinkercad to make it happen was wonderfully educational too. It's a limited tool in many way and the limitations were in their own way liberating.</p> <p>Carry your chess set to your next game in the coolest way possible.</p> <p>This thing was made largely in tinkercad and can be edited online at <a href="https://tinkercad.com/things/9EMMYZIfQwy">https://tinkercad.com/things/9EMMYZIfQwy</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Forming the head and body by sliding the queen's tab into the middle of the king and sliding down.<br/> Form shoulders by sliding in the two flat bottomed pawns into the body.<br/> Form feet and legs by mating two of the pawns base-to-base and attaching the knights to one end. Then join the legs to the body at the hips.<br/> Form the arms by mating one pawn base-to-base with the rook, and the bishop to the pawn. (Detail lovers will make sure the fingers are in the right place.) Then snap the rook into the shoulder pawn.<br/> Disassemble by reversing the steps to play chess.</p>
