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.

Customer Reviews
"I've been delighted with this set since purchase, the quality and design are superb, with the landmarks working brilliantly as their respective pieces. The accompanying literature gives you a detailed insight into Glasgow's history, which adds a nice extra motivation to keep up with your chess."

Duke of Wellington Christmas Bauble
"The guys at 3D Scotland were so lovely and helpful. I was possibly needing to re-size and none of this was an issue, they were just happy to help. I was also on a strict deadline which they understood and allowed me to collect my item instead of waiting on delivery. I'll definitely be using them again for future projects!"
