Printable Chinese Chess

Hello,

Here I just share with you guys my latest design of chinese chesses. The picture is in isometric look and I like it very much, I first have seen this kind of picture (usually for cartoon animation) from internet, then I though why shouldn’t I print something like this with the same good looking.

Now I’ve made my original one. The NFC tags can be embeded inside too!

As I said, it’s printable, not just illustration, here is the print one, layer height 0.2mm:

Great design and execution - as always!! Did you design these yourself?

How awesome would it be to use the NFC in a way that the board senses where the pieces are, so you can play against someone else via the internet - but with a real board?

Nice one! This is a real great idea.

@Elric_Zufan Do you plan on publishing the stl’s anywhere? It seems like you’ve got some pretty neat ideas!

Hi Stef_en_Paul,

Yes, I designed this by myself. The play via internet is a pretty cool idea, I should make this in next steps.

The board you see in the picture can be printed, but to realize the internet function it needs to be re-designed, to embed the sensors…I need to check the feasibility.

If you have software backgrounds or you know some software specialists, I think we can work on this together.

Worth a try…

Ciaooo,

Cui

Very well designed. going to check the rules of this beautiful game

You may get a better result printing them upside-down!

Wonderfull!

Hi Arnoldas,

You can download a free one from here “New Type Chinese Chess by neomakr - Thingiverse”, and I’m trying to put the rest models on a different platform, probably the cults3d.com.

I’m glad that you like the idea, thanks

Thank you Filemon ;-D

This is great @Elric_Zufan! Love how detailed the pieces are - nice work on those prints!

Hi @Stef_en_Paul,

It was funny that I thought there is another Paul with the same name of you…Ahaha…xD…I just find out it was really you…sorry for that, I didn’t notice your hub’s account…

Thanks again for your ideas

Thank you @StudioK, really happy to hear that!

The upside-down way worth a try, here is the link where you can download a free one “New Type Chinese Chess by neomakr - Thingiverse” and print it yourself!

Hi @gabriela3d, I’m happy to hear that! Thanks!

I’m thinking to make some instructions about the play, I will share once I finished.

Ciaooo,
