At the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
create a chess bishop in TinkerCad
nil
there are certain rules that need to be followed in making chess pieces:
see below
the standards we will follow are:
the chessboard squares will be assumed to be 50 mm x 50 mm
4 pawns will exactly fit inside this square, therefore the base diameter of a pawn will be:
50 / 2 = 25 mm diameter for pawn
the diameter of the piece's base should measure 45% of its height
the height and diameter of the pieces are as follows:
King – 95 mm height → 95 x 50% = 47.5 mm diameter
Queen – 85 mm height → 85 x 50% = 42.5 mm diameter
Bishop – 70 mm height → 70 x 50% = 35 mm diameter
Knight – 60 mm height → 60 x 50% = 30 mm diameter
Rook – 55 mm height → 55 x 50% = 27.5 mm diameter
Pawn – 50 mm height → 50 x 50% = 25 mm diameter
