Thanks to those who printed the original Action Chess I learned a lot so I returned the the drawing board. While this assembles similarly to the original, every part has been adjusted somewhat. Improved base-to-base connections for the pawns and rooks, an improved king/queen conenction, and an improved overall design. If all things work out this should be a vast improvement over the original. And cooler looking.

Plus I added a tinkercad logo to the chest for shameless pandering. (Well, I wanted a logo, but I couldn't design one that I liked, so I went with this.)

Special thanks to PrettySmallThings for helping me with the couplers and for pointing out that I need to send my files through netfabb.

This part was made with Tinkercad. Edit the part online at:

EDIT Made a version scaled by 80% so the pieces fit in the sizes specified by the contest rules. You can edit that version at
