HOLY CRAP!
Are those cut with a laser? I know a guy that has a trophy/sign business and uses a laser to etch metal and glass plates, but he's also used it to help his kids with stuff like pinewood derby cars. He's used the laser to form and cut the block. Impressive stuff. When I saw the flat pieces the laser was the first thing that popped into my mind.
I'm also assuming that your developing the pieces in some kind of CAD software. If so, what are you using?Last edited by aquatroy; May 1, '09, 10:47 AM.Comment

Oh my gosh that is totally freakin' awesome!!
Are you going to make these available for sale?Capt. Kirk: "Is there anyone on this ship, who even remotely, looks like Satan?"
Mr. Spock: "I am not aware of anyone who fits that description, Captain"
Capt. Kirk: "No, Mr. Spock, I didn't think you would be"Comment

For Sale
Thanks for all the nice replies. I showed my wife and she was impressed by all the love.
I'm actually not a new member, but I don't post much. It was just my first finished custom post.
As for fat fingers, I had to use tweezers to set up the pictures! I think after I've played with the set for a few weeks I'll end up gluing down the pieces so they stay put.
The pieces are made out of 1/8 inch plastic acrylic sheets cut with a laser cutter. I use some free software called Inkscape to do the design.
I'd be happy to make some to sell if people are interested. It will be $12 for a regular set (chess board + 32 chess pieces) or $22 for the 3-D Trek set (3-D board + 32 chess pieces). Plus $6 for shipping in the US. PM me for details or if you have any questions.
I'm working on some more mego-size stuff that I hope to share soon.Comment

More Pix
I'm not sure how accurate this pic is

I'll look more this weekend, but it seems to be a bit different from yours but I can't tell.
Can you post another pic showing if the extra platforms are on levels 1 and 3 only? It looks like you have a platform on level 2.
Your work is incredible. Expect my PM by Sunday.—-
