Description

I needed a chess board for the chess pieces I found here:
https://makerworld.com/en/models/406463?from=search#profileId-308422
So I decided to make the board Gridfinity based.

 

If your printer can't handle a full 8x8 grid (336mm²) print, same as my Bambu printers can't, just use the 5x3+1 grids I designed which let you snap all squares together into one full, interlocked 8x8 board.

 

Unfortunately the Gridfinity raster size (42mm) leads to a total of 8 plates that need to be printed, so as an alternative I designed a version with 40mm grid size which brings the total amount of plates down to 4.

 

You will need an AMS for this board.

 

Note: as always, any stereo images are of the cross-eyed type.

I chamfered some corners to increase fitment of the grids.

I decided to separate the two different gridsized Chessboards into two printprofiles, mainly to prevent confusion when downloading.
Everything else (geometry, part numbers etc.) is unchanged.
Additionally I've added a PDF-drawing explaining the assembly of the separate parts. It should be pretty self-explanatory.
