Description

Remixed from https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-243164

I like the look of Eloi Arrufat's Silhouette chess set, but when I actually tried printing it I noticed some problems with the design. I thought if I made some minor modifications it might print without supports. But when I imported the STL for editing... it needed a lot more than just a little bit of work. In the end I redesigned the whole set using the original set as reference.

Turns out many of the top curves, especially of the queen, pawns, and knight, still do better with supports. However, I included a "thicker" set that might fix this problem. At the time of uploading those "thicker" pieces are untested. Feel free to let me know how it goes.
