DESCRIPTION
This project started in 2018 when I designed and manufactured 10 copies of a 2D, laser cut, Glasgow-themed chess set, which I sold in Princes Square, Glasgow.
In 2021 my mate Michael and I then set out to try and design and manufacture a 3D version.
The product is a custom chess set, with pieces based on iconic landmarks around our hometown, Glasgow, from mostly around the Clydeside area.
