Chess on a 3D printer: 3d printing of figures

The possibilities of modern three-dimensional printing allow you to reproduce almost any detail on a 3D printer, regardless of its complexity. You can even create a real board game - chess, by printing not only figures of any configuration, but also the board itself. Three-dimensional printing of chess will certainly interest users who are fond of this game, or those who know chess players.

3D Printed Chess: A Review of the Top 20 Chess Pieces

3D printing technology involves the creation of parts layer by layer by applying thin melted plastic threads. The consumable material is one of the suitable filaments - ABS, PLA, Nylon, etc. 3D printers that print using FDM technology, including the most budget ones, are more suitable for printing chess. More expensive models that use the photopolymer baking method in their work are used much less frequently in everyday life due to the relatively high cost of production. However, such devices are also suitable for creating original chess sets. nine0003

Before you start printing, you should develop a 3D model of the product - a file in STL format that can be recognized by the printer control unit. The model is a set of instructions written in a special programming language, according to which a three-dimensional object will be printed.

You can make a 3D chess model on your own using special programs and online services, including 3DS Max, Maya 3D, Blender, Cura, CraftWare, TinkerCAD, Sculptris and others, or by downloading the finished model from specialized sites . Some versions are available for free, some require pre-payment. nine0003

There is also a mixed option - when on the basis of a ready-made free project, you develop your own, with an individual design.

Movie

One of the broadest categories in 3D printing is recreating chess sets with pieces from movies, TV series or cartoons. By printing one of these sets, you can have truly memorable battles with friends.

  • Pokémon. This chess set is based on characters from the popular animated series. The abundance of characters allows you to create unique sets: for example, you can make Brock and Misty the king and queen, and replace the rest of the figures with your favorite Pokemon. For each type of pieces, basic shapes have been developed to distinguish pawns from rooks, etc. The recommended layer height for printing is 0.15 mm, the fill factor is from 20%. nine0020

  • The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien's iconic saga about the adventures of Middle-earth characters is a good idea for a stylized chess set. This set contains enough figures to arrange a large-scale battle between good and evil. The light side here is represented by figures of hobbits, dwarves, elves, etc., the dark side is represented by goblins, orcs, Saruman, Sauron, Nazgul, etc. Printing can be done without supports, with a fill factor of 25%.
  • Star Wars. Another set, by printing which you can influence the struggle between light and dark forces. Figures here are represented by stormtrooper pawns, R2-D2, Khan, Leia, Yoda, Darth Vader, Lumiya and other cult characters. It is recommended to print this kit using PLA plastic with sleeves from 3 to 16 and a fill ratio of 15%. Support structures can be used to improve print quality and detail.

From games

  • Super Mario. Super Mario is a cult computer game from Nintendo that has captivated millions of gamers around the world. The possibilities of three-dimensional printing allow you to print a chess set, where the main characters will be the characters of this story: mushrooms, Yoshi, Queen, Peach, Mario, Birdo, etc.
  • Counter Strike. A set of chess pieces inspired by this game will allow you to have really hot battles with your friends outside the virtual world.
  • Maincraft. The game's retro graphics have captivated billions of users around the world. With the help of a 3D printer, you can recreate this universe, consisting of blocks, and in the form of a chess set. nine0020

Stylized figures

  • Low poly. The hallmark of this chess set is the low-poly design, which is a collection of 3D shapes built from flat polygons. This feature makes the figurines fairly easy to 3D print, allowing them to be printed with a high degree of detail. The components of the kits are designed in Blender, and the ideal plastic for printing is PLA. Most figures can be printed without first creating support structures, supports may only require knight and king figures. nine0020
  • Raven. A distinctive feature of this set is the use of the Voronoi structure for each chess piece - the structure is designed in such a way that as a result of the mathematical construction of the planes, round three-dimensional structures similar to membranes are obtained. Printing such a set requires a minimum of costs due to the hollow structure of the figures. PLA plastic and 15% fill factor are preferred for printing.

  • Abstraction. Such a chess set will be an excellent choice for those users who prefer an abstract design. The figures in the set have a unique structure and a ball located at the top. It is intended to indicate the type of figure. Printing of this set works best with the support structures, however, it is important to remove them very carefully after printing is completed: the figures are quite fragile. nine0020

Animals and objects

  • Set with animal figurines. Any animal can be included in the kit, including lion, poodles, horse, penguin, cat, etc. Each type of figure has a unique design, especially for the lion playing the role of king in this game. He is distinguished by a royal mane and a crown on it. It is recommended to print such figures without rafts and supporting structures with an infill of more than 20%.
  • Space race. This set is dedicated to the times of the Cold War between America and the USSR. The figurines here are represented by various designs of spaceships and satellites. Almost all types of figures can be printed without support structures with more than 15% infill. nine0020
  • Music set. Depending on the creator's imagination, the set may include pawns in the form of musical pairs, as well as a set of musical instruments - a violin, cello, harp, guitar, etc. This project also involves printing a collapsible board, which is convenient for storage, as well as a special box .

Miscellaneous

  • Bauhaus. This chess set was designed in the Bauhaus style, which embodies all the beauty and aesthetics of minimalism. The prototype of the set was Josef Hartwig's Model I chess set, which was created in 1922 in Germany. It is recommended to print with a fill rate of over 25% and a layer height of 0.15 mm or more.
  • Steampunk. This literary genre is a symbol of industrial society and its advanced technologies. The style combines aesthetics and technological beauty. The model is light enough to print on printers with FDM technology.

  • Chess set in the form of pots for succulents. This chess set is an opportunity to combine playing chess and gardening. Chess here are hollow containers, each of which can be planted with a living plant. PLA plastic filament is suitable for printing. nine0020

Unusual

In addition to chess sets with standard solutions, there are also unusual pieces, the game of which requires advanced spatial thinking and interaction skills.

  • Buildable game board. This project involves printing a collapsible chess board. It is suitable for travel, hiking and similar situations. The board consists of parts that can be easily connected to each other, and after parsing - folded into a compact box. For printing, PLA plastic with an infill of more than 20% is more suitable. Support structures are not needed in this case. nine0020
  • Three-player chess set. The board in this model has the shape of a curved hexagon and is designed for three players. Each player receives 16 pieces. The optimal field size is 180 × 180 mm.

  • Expandable board. This model consists of one standard pattern that can be printed an unlimited number of times, allowing you to create a chess board of any size. In this case, only half of the squares are printed, which significantly reduces material consumption. nine0020
  • Three-dimensional chess. Version of the game of chess for advanced players. The game board has five planes, each of which has an area of ​​4 × 4.

Which 3D printers are suitable for printing chess?

Almost all FDM 3D printers are suitable for printing customized chess sets. The presence of two independent extruders in the model is a major advantage, as it allows you to print support structures if necessary, as well as use multi-color printing. nine0003

Print quality depends not only on the brand and quality of the printer, but also on the user's ability to customize and modify the printer.

Benefits of printing chess on a 3D printer

Printing chess on a 3D printer is more preferable than buying similar sets in the store, because:

  • If you lose the pieces, you can easily print the missing pieces. It is rather difficult to order duplicate figures in the store, especially if the chess model has already gone out of stock. nine0020
  • Chess can be printed in any size - from the smallest, pocket-size options to large floor designs.
  • Chess set with a unique design is a great gift for familiar chess players. In stores, as a rule, only standard sets can be bought, while with the help of three-dimensional modeling it is possible to develop a unique set that exists in a single copy.

Self-printing of chess on a 3D printer does not require specific knowledge and skills. However, at a minimum cost, you can get unique chess sets that only you will have. nine0003
