Parametric Chess Set with Threaded Assembly – Designed for 3D Printing

This project is a custom chess set designed in Fusion 360 and optimized for FDM 3D printing. The pieces were designed as functional assemblies rather than simple decorative models. Several pieces use a two-part construction with precisely modeled threaded connections, allowing the upper section to be screwed onto the base after printing. The project involved dimensional control, thread design, assembly tolerances, part separation, and design considerations for reliable 3D printing. The final parts were physically manufactured and tested, allowing the fit and threaded connections to be validated on real printed components. Key aspects: Fusion 360 CAD modeling Functional threaded connections Dimensional tolerances and fit Multi-part assemblies Design for FDM 3D printing Physical prototype and fit validation STL-ready geometry This project demonstrates my ability to take a concept from CAD design to a functional, physically manufactured part.
