Designed for http://blog.tinkercad.com/2012/03/19/design-a-chess-set-win-a-makerbot/ I thought it would be interesting to make Ice cubes in the shape of chess pieces, use food dye (or Kool-Aid) for coloring the black pieces(you could then play a variant of timed chess, where a piece is gone once it has melted beyond recognition). Warning: not recommended for cardboard chess boards. I also thought about Chocolate chess, though I suspect eating the pieces you take would be required. You could use this with just about any liquid that solidifies, such as latex, but I'm not sure why you would. This part was made with Tinkercad. Edit the part online at: https://tinkercad.com/things/dhmJvNcxGQj Instructions While I doubt this will be anywhere as awesome as Action #Chess (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:19733) I will try anyway. I hope this will work with any liquid that solidifies at a temperature or over time. Note: I have not printed this (no 3d printer), if you do print it, please let me know of any issues, problems, or suggestions for improvements. Note 2: You should probably flip it up-side-down before printing. Print, clean, and seal the connection Fill with desired material. let material solidify. remove from molds. play.
