This is a minimalist modular chess piece set designed as a parametric system and originally created in December 2022.
Each piece is multi-part and hollow, designed to be assembled by press-fit. The fit is firm but not aggressive — assembly should be done carefully, without forcing parts. No glue, sanding, cutting, or post-processing is required. The pieces are ready to assemble straight from the printer.
All models are provided print-ready:
Properly oriented
Correctly spaced on the build plate
Optimized for clean printing
No supports required by the design itself
The geometry is designed to print support-free.
However, if your printer struggles with long bridges (the longest bridge is ~1.6 cm on the rook), you may optionally enable supports from build plate only for small overhangs. This is printer-dependent, not model-dependent.
The pieces are:
Hollow
Very lightweight
Structurally stable
Modular
Easy to assemble
Easy to print
Photos were printed in translucent PETG.
Because the pieces are hollow, LEDs can be inserted inside them (shown in the last photo) — this is optional and purely aesthetic.
The full piece can be scaled uniformly.
However, scaling individual parts separately is not recommended, as it will affect the press-fit tolerances and the quality of the assembly.
No calibration, no hacks, no tricks:
Just print → assemble → use.
