THE ORIGINAL CHESS SET WAS NOT MADE BY ME.
Original chess set: https://grabcad.com/library/chess-153
I got the idea from CGP Grey's "Hexagons are the Bestagons" video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thOifuHs6eY
The set was designed for Gliński's hexagonal chess. An explination of this can be found here: https://www.chessvariants.com/hexagonal.dir/hexagonal.html
You can easily play other variants of hexagonal chess with this if you just print more pieces, or make your own board. i have included a file for a single space, so you can tile them to add on to the board or create a new board entirely. you can find measurments to tile the spaces in the image in the "How I Designed This" section. I Included STEP files to make it easyer to edit. It may be fun to make up you own variation of hex-chess, be creative!
This is my first Thing so if you have any critisism or suggestions, please leave a comment, I would really appreciate it.
