Something I made in collage. A simple chess set

Simple chess set that can help new players remember what moves are allowed by different pieces. They have to be told what to look for but after that they can look at the piece to remember. For Instance: Crown on King and Queen each have 8 segments to remind about the different directions that the piece can move. The King has a short slot below the crown to remind that the King normally can only move one square. Also the King's Crown has much shorter slots in the battlement to remind about the short movements. The Bishop has a slanted back to remind the player that the Bishop can only move diagonally. There is also a diagonal marque to help remind about movement. The Knight has a faceplate that looks like two eye slots, but it actually reminds the player of the motion that a Knight is allowed to play. The Rook is square and has two slots in its battlement indicating the direction of movement. There are long arrow slits on each side reminding that the Rook can move long distances. Lastly, the Pawn is a simple piece that indicates with a small arrow slot that it normally moves a single square forward.

This is my take on a small travel friendly chess and checkers set. The total board size is 160mm square. Each individual square is 20mm square. All the chess game pieces or men print in two separate parts. These parts print flat and need no support material. After they are printed you slide the two pieces together, this makes each chess game piece. The tolerances on each piece is 0.2mm on the sides of the cutout. I was following the Stauntion chess set style when I made these. I have made the board as one piece and have include a fourth of the board piece. Allowing you to print the board in fourths instead of one piece. I have also included two pdf images of boards that you can print out on paper and use. The 3D printed board is a height based board, allowing you to print and use it as one color. I have also included a checkers game piece, so you can also play checkers. I recommend printing both pieces to make a single pawn and see how well they go together. Than decide if you want to print the rest of the set. The chess set follows a height growth with the pawn being the shortest and the king being the tallest. The rest of the set falls in-between the pawn and king. I made a video showing everything off here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyeiuaNOp1o

This chess board prints all in one piece. Patterns on the board eliminate the need to change colors for different squares. I'm not a big designer guy, but 20% infill and 0.2 mm layers is what I'm printing with. Granted, it's printing riiiight now. If you really want to know how it turned out before trying it yourself, comment or something and I'll let you know in a few hours.

This is a simple designed chess set for all chess lovers. The game set is provided with gaps for magnetic supports (5mm diameter ; 1.5mm deep) Have fun printing and playing !! ^_^

My own design with printing in mind. Pretty boring but simple.

I created this chess set because I could not find a single basic chess set on thingieverse. If you guys find anything wrong with my board please let me know in the comment box. Hope you guys enjoy this simple chess set.

This is a simple set for playing draughts and chess. You can cut it out of wood. The letters for the chess-pawns are chosen from the German names. The pawns with the letter X are made to mark special pawns in draughts. The chess set can be cut out of a horizontal DIN A4 sheet of wood. There are some small lines inside with the width of 0,1mm. These lines are the lines the laser should cut out (one of them is directly over the border of the chess set and therefore you cannot see it). The only thing you need after cutting out is a friend to play with : )

this is a chess set with simple pieces design. it can be put in the living room as a decoration or for daily use.

We are back with another bonus podcast edition of Chess Books Recaptured.

This is a set of simplified chess pieces I made because my flight was going the next day and I wanted a travel chess set, then made minor improvements after I returned home. Any criticism is welcome and appreciated. It is simplified, not minimalist, because the pieces are supposed to be easily distinguishable. Further, the pieces are designed to be easy to print, without supports, at high speeds, with low resolution, low infill and at small scales. The sets in the pictures are printed with 0.2mm resolution and 20% infill, but that really shouldn't matter. The default size is already rather small with heights from 22mm to 36mm, but you should be able to scale them as you wish without any issues.

Simple chess set that should be easy to print. Printing the knight requires supports.

This is a remix of the OpenSCAD Chess https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:585218 set designed for easier upright printing without supports. I didn't want to print the two halves and glue them together as in the orginal thing, or try and cut out supports. I also used wood PLA filament from Hatchbox and stained them to great effect. Each piece has a washer and green felt glued to the bottom for some weight. I modified the dxf files to not have such a steep overhang using LibreCAD and regenerated the STL files in OpenSCAD. Next, I added a chin support to the knight with TinkerCAD. Lastly, I greatly increased the thickness of the king's crown to prevent breakage using OpenSCAD. The rook was the only piece which didn't need any tweaks, but it's here for completeness. You can see the before and after in the pictures for this where the modified parts are highlighted. (The chessboard was made out of aspen and mahogany.)

Simple Chess

I started out with a goal for an easily printable, recognizable chess set. I think I have achieved that. The knight requires supports, besides that these pieces should print without difficulty. They are a simple design and I have tried to use a common base for all pieces.

Simple Chess Set in OpenScad, a Sunday project with my little one. Hopefully the next weekend we can design the King and Queen.

Hello I'm 3deer. I love Chess game. So I tried to design a 'Simple Chess Set'. Basic chess piece's size is 1.5x1.5x1.5cm. Print eight pawns. One king and queen. And two others. The board's Size 16.5x16.5cm. I think it is so big to some people. So I have prepared a quarter size for those who have a small maximum printer size. We recommend that you print two quarters each. If you aren't, you can print 'Board' STL file. And If you need something, please write Reply :) Have a Good Game!

Remixed the simple print OpenScad chess pieces and added a hole in the bottom. I am going to print and add fishing weights or metal bbs and epoxy them into the hole. I will finish it flush with wood filler and add a felt bottom.

Easy to Print

I know there are a million chess designs. But this is a million and one. My version of chess is very small, simple fast and don't need support. You need a thin metal sheet with dimensions of 140 X140 mm. I glued a magnetic business card under the pieces - I have a lot of - and now i think of a box for it . thanks

Printed on my Creality CR10S, 0,4mm nozzle, 0,3mm layer width, 0,1mm layer height. Use support and raft for best result. After printing use some sandpaper to get rid of support residues. Enjoy...

Not round. (Incase your blind)

This is a simple chess set! The reason I created this chess set was because I was having troubles finding a basic set of chess pieces that looked good for every piece was uniform at the base. All pieces-including the king and queen have the same diameter which make them easy to place into a holder (interchangeable). The knight could still use some work but it works for the time being- I achieved this model without sculpting! PS. I'm too lazy to go back and rename the castle to rook. Enjoy!

Simple Christmas themed chess set. Made mostly in Tinkercad with simple shapes, except for Santa and the reindeer, which were sculpted in Scupltris. I'll be printing these in a day or two, so it's "unfinished" for right now. Probably needs a ton of supports, unlike my Halloween chess set. Edit 10/14/17: Yes, it needs support for the knight, and the rook. You don't need support for anyone else, unless you scale it up. If you scale up the set, the bishop will need support. Do NOT use support for the pawn! They are thin, and will break. Rook: Tree Bishop: Snowman Knight: Deer King: Santa Queen: Candle Pawn: Gifts I have it set up so you can print it all at once on a 120x120 build plate, or individually.

This is just a simple classic chess set that I have saved as individual pieces to make it easy to print.

These were more or less an exercise for me in Fusion 360. I think they turned out pretty good and I love playing with them. I printed with Duramic gray and spray painted, but you can save some time by printing with two different filament colors. Thanks for looking!

So, building a magnetic chess set for my kid and this is what I made. I wanted to print with no supports and have a spot to put a magnet on the bottom. I Am not a particularly skilled 3d modeler... but he (8) recognized the pieces... so that works.

I Designed this as a Fun Project to get Better with CAD the Field Pieces are 10x10x2 mm and have a hole in the bottom surface to accept a small round magnet of 5x1 mm i printed the field pieces upside down so the build plate texture would be on top. they require no raft or supports. The pieces are printed upright on rafts with Chitubox Auto Supports wich worked fine for me. each one has a hole in the base for a 4.4 mm steel ball (Stel BB) the magnets and balls are held in place with CA and the Black and white Field Pieces have the magnets glued in with opposite Polarity so they weakly hold together when assembled on a non-Magnetic Surface.
