NO SUPPORTS NEEDED Printing a high-definition game board is a breeze with this setup, producing results far superior to your average printer. The upright folding board is perfect for large prints, and the sexy hinge action ensures a secure closure when not in use. Color groups allow you to simulate having a multi-color printer at home. The .blend file is ready for customization to meet your unique needs. Teeth on the board serve as an added deterrent for kids. Before playing chess, this game takes center stage. Follow these steps to create your own high-definition game board: 1. Print out the board with the largest scale possible using your printer's capabilities. Record the scale used - my setup was 120%. 2. Duplicate color B and print two identical models at the same scale as the board. 3. Repeat step 2 for color C, printing it at the same scale as the board. 4. Attach the tiles to the board using a strong adhesive like superglue. 5. If the board closes too forcefully, lightly sand the teeth for a smoother action. 6. Share your creation - I'm eager to see the unique colors and print quality you achieve. Additional Notes: - A-B-C represent color groups used in this setup. - Both the board and tiles were printed with a thickness of 0.4 mm. - Characters were printed at a thickness of 0.2 mm.
