More chess.
For everyone.
I want more people to enjoy chess. That is why I share my 3D printing models for free. For your first game, a school chess group or a club with a few missing pieces.
01 / Czech club set
3D preview · Drag to rotate the pieces
A small project. More games.
A good game starts with having something to play with.
Chess should be accessible. At home, at school, in a library or at a club. A missing pawn should not leave a whole set gathering dust in a cupboard.
I am starting with the Czech club set – familiar pieces from chess tables across the country. Another set and a 3D-printed chess clock for a mobile phone will follow.
I share the files for free. You can turn them into something that keeps people playing.

Another classic for the board. I am preparing a second set so you can choose the pieces you most enjoy playing with.

Make a start
Three steps to your first game.
01
Choose a model
Open the project page for its current status, print files and a guide for that particular model.
02
Print and assemble
Once the files are published, follow the guide. It will cover print preparation and assembly, including embedded weights and gluing where needed.
03
Invite someone to play
Set up the pieces and play. If your print brings a little joy to a school group or chess club too, all the better.

Frequently asked questions
Still looking for an answer? Get in touch – I reply personally.
Is it really free?
Yes. Published print files are free to download, with no registration. You cover the material, printer running costs or any third-party printing service.
Where are the files and instructions?
Open Details & guide on any project card. Files and guides still in preparation are clearly marked. Download links will appear as soon as the packages are ready.
Do I need my own 3D printer?
No. You can give the files to someone who can print them. Try a friend, a school workshop, a library or a local makerspace. Arrange availability and any printing costs directly with them.
Can I print just one piece?
Yes, you do not need to print the whole set. Choose the missing piece and check its size against your existing set before printing.
Can I adapt the models or sell prints?
Yes, for models marked CC BY-SA 4.0, including commercial use. Credit the source, link to the license and identify changes. Share adapted models under the same license. See the License section for details.
Which weights and glue should I use?
The material, weight dimensions, print pause and gluing procedure will be specified in each model's guide. For now, the project pages contain guide outlines only.
What is coming next?
A Staunton – DGT Timeless set and a 3D-printed chess clock for a mobile phone. Both are in preparation. Their print files will be added here, also for free.
