About this print

A complete set of chess pieces modelled on the official World Chess Championship design, covering all six piece types. The pieces are sized to fit boards with squares between 5 and 5.5 centimetres. Each piece includes a threaded recess in the base where a bolt or threaded rod can be inserted to add weight and stability. The set is suited to use as a functional playing set or as a display piece. PLA produces the clean surface detail these pieces call for.

Original maker's notes

The design of these chess pieces is heavily based on Official World Chess Championship Chess Set, with slight artistic freedom every here and there. In original sizes, the pieces fit nicely to a board with 5cm to 5.5cm (1.96" to 2.16") squares.

Version 2: There is a threaded recess in the bottom of the pieces where a bolt/threaded rod can be placed to add some extra weight.

The sizes of the pieces (b=base, h=hight, v2=bolt):

- Pawn (b=2.92cm, h=5.47cm, v2=M10x12)
- Knight (b=3.23cm, h= 7.13cm, v2=M10x20)
- Bishop (b=3.17cm, h=7.65cm, v2=M10x20)
- Rook (b=3.57cm, h=5.92cm, v2=M10x20)
- Queen (b=3.79cm, h=8.50cm, v2=M10x25)
- King (b=3.81cm, h=9.53cm, v2=M10x25)

Feel free to leave me feedback, suggestions and criticism in the comments. It would also be wonderful to see high quality prints of these chess pieces.

Printing World Chess Championship - Chess Pieces

For World Chess Championship - Chess Pieces we would normally reach for PLA — it is easy to print, low-odour and plenty strong for everyday use. We set the layer height, wall count, infill and supports to suit the model and how you will use it, and those choices are already priced into your instant quote. Want a specific colour or material? Tell us and we will match it where we can.
