Chessboard Box

This is a box that opens 180˚ into a flat chessboard and closes to neatly contain your pieces. It requires no AMS, but uses glue and magnets (the magnets are semi-optional—the box should click closed without them—but that mechanism may wear down with use).

**Design and Inspirations**

There are many other folding chess boxes available but none quite fit my needs, so this is a new model that takes inspiration from those designs. The basic shell is from [CaseBuilderLibLite](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4549150/apps), edited in OpenSCAD and TinkerCAD.

The chess pieces shown are [BigBadBison](https://www.thingiverse.com/BigBadBison/designs)'s [Spiral Chess Set](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:470700), scaled so the pieces are 22mm at the base.
