Organic Chess Set

thingiverse

This chess set draws inspiration from classical Staunton style pieces but redesigned in forms that can only be rendered through 3D printing. This set includes the most current iteration of the queen, which incorporates printability and aesthetic improvements over the one shown in group photos. I have scaled the files to fit a 12"x12" board (see dimensions below). They can be scaled up or down as needed. The black and white individual pieces are printed at 200% scale, bringing out detail but significantly increasing print time. Even if you don't have time or filament to print a full set, the pieces have overhangs and other features that make for great bench tests. Please remember to "Like" and post photos of your prints if you print a set or even individual pieces. Enjoy and keep your filament dry.

Check out his video for a cool approach to making a chess board with the assistance of a laser cutter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-bWnqg_fTk
