My husband and I made 2 of these many years ago for our sons for Xmas! They were awesome..fun to make and our sons loved them.
Such a cool concept. Especially for someone who has a lot of bolts and nuts lying around
That is some serious creativity man👌👍🏆❗️
Such a cool idea and music
Nice creativity

Shyam Malini Sridhar Thank you! If you try it yourself, we’d love to see it! Tag us 😀
acorn nuts on the tops of the bishops would be better, if you hunt down the ones with the pointed end (they come with a very round ball end or a pointed sorta cone like tip, and the latter works better for that pointed tip bishop shape, especially if you can get the ones with an exaggerated pointed tips. :) )
These took so cool! And cold 🥶
love it thank you so much!
Thank you so much, definitely going to use this concept soon ...cheap but ingenious and beautiful
Great video. I am literally making one right now. Hopefully my video will drop soon.
That was so cool. I think this would be a great project to do with my son. He is interested in learning to play chess. I started teaching him and in no time he was really challenging me. Of course that is not saying much.
Great
This is So Unique!!💐

@Quan Michaels I thought it was cool.
Is there a list of materials for this?
What size thread do you recommend
Is there a list of items for this?
I've been toying with a similar idea, but maybe a bit more developed. For instance using stainless steel and bluing the "black" figures. My 12 year old nephew made a useable chess set out of some of his LEGO bricks. I think there's no limit to what you can use to make a chess set.
When you have no money but you want to play chess

What an idea 👈👈
nice
This video would have been more amazing if you would name the pieces used to make the chess pieces.
That’s cool! I may try this. I wonder if sticking the tiles to a magnetic sheet would be enough to hold the pieces.

Not a bad idea! Maybe etching the magnetic sheet to look like the chess board could work?
What was the total cost?
And then this iron about welding,this heavy duty!
Me likey!👌
I made mine different. Rooks are long hex nuts, period. Pawns are bolts with acorn nuts on top.
Not to my taste, but I love your creativity
Make the rook with the castle nut
Seems a great idea but won't the nuts & bolts move & come loose as they're handled & moved around each time?

You can just glue them to the Bolts

The painted ones may not move much.

Isn't the board colors wrong? Black should be on left bottom?

White is bottom right. So just turn the board a half turn and it should be right.
A chess set that anyone can use. No "graven images". Just art.
Nice job, clean and simple... Well maybe not clean.

I am trying to think of ways to improve on this with hardware pieces. A trip to Home Depot might give me some ideas. But this was cool as it is.
