Version 2 complete redesign of the popular chess set I made back in 2018 (https://www.printables.com/model/473283-minimalist-contemporary-chess-set)

You can either download the entire set in one file, or download the individual pieces.

Two major improvements were made compared to the previous design:

Redesigned to be proportioned just like the Staunton chess set; this is visually much more pleasing on the back rank

Fits common M6 (30mm version) or M10 (50mm version) hex nuts for added weight in the bottom

Prints entirely without supports. You can choose the 30mm version if your chess board has 30mm squares, or the 50mm version for the standard tournament boards with 50mm squares.

The nuts should fit tightly into the bottom. But if it's too tight on your prints, one tip is to heat the nuts on the printbed (100C), place your prints on top, let it sit for a minute or so, and then gently push it down into place. Don't apply too much force to your printbed, however! A second option is to use a vise or glue clamp to press the nut into place.
