LET'S RESIN Chess Molds for Resin Casting, Upgraded Resin Chess Set Mold with 16 Piece 3D Full Size Chess Checkers & Chess Board Epoxy Silicone Resin Molds, DIY Chess Board Game, Christmas Gifts

The groves for the squares are much shallower than I was expecting but overall amazing product! Super high quality and a fun bonus that it comes with dye. The mold is super thick and easy to use.

Honestly the set was great. I totally thought it came with resin but it didn’t, my mistake for not reading the whole description though. Full disclaimer it did take like 5 hours bc you have to do the pieces in two sets as well as the board. Also a few of the pawns heads fell off so I had to make a third batch, but user error tbh. Definitely be careful when filling the chess board bc the colors will leak if filled to high or not level. Truly turned out better than expected and wasn’t that hard. Also recommend gloves for sure. Don’t skip those.

My son plays chess and he loved this set. Making his own Dallas set was the first thing he did. The pieces have cross bases that allow them to stand freely while curing. Easy to decorate and pour, pieces are a bit difficult to get out but they are worth it. The board is not as thick as it seems and the edges curl a bit as it cures but can be gently bent to flat as it hardens. Once it is all together it is a truly stunning game and it plays beautifully.

This is my first mold I've ever used. I was hoping to find a more creative design, but not much is available out there. My experience so far has been good, as far as the product is concerned. The design is intricate and looks great. The mold does not stick to my epoxy at all, even without release spray. I've made 4 sets now and see no sign of mold deterioration yet. The molds stand on their own which is pretty awesome, though I prefer the holder as then I can use an unlevelled table and just level the holder. Overall, pretty well designed. I've used some of the mica powder which has a nice effect, but I've nothing to compare it to since I haven't used any other mica powders. I didn't try the chess board mold as I'm building my own, so I can't comment on that. I'm taking a star off for two things, neither really worth a star on their own: The collar on these pieces is unnecessarily large. It tends to trap air and makes removal of the molds *much* more difficult than it needs to be. It takes twice as long to demold just because of the difficulty of getting the mold over the collar. My support experience was not good. I kept seeing 'chips' on the collar. I emailed support and after 4 days they wrote back and asked questions that were answered in my original message. In that same time the epoxy manufacturer had a full email conversation with me helping me determine the cause was bubbles trapped in the mold, walking me through a foolproof technique for eliminating the problem with little effort by rolling the base and collar after a 2/3 pour, and following up with me to ask me how it went.

We have yet to make a full set of chess pieces, but we have made a few random pawns and bishops. The chess board we completed after several failed attempts. You are supposed to do every other square with color, wait 12 hours, then do the remaining squares. Watching the video that Lets Resin has of making the board REALLY helped me understand how to do it right & then I was successful in making the board. I based my board off of their idea they show in the video with the white squares and a rainbow swirl made with clear resin + several colors of alcohol inks swirled together with a popsicle stick, with some white resin on top to add contrast to the swirl. At the last second I threw in some of my random hotfix rhinestones because I bought a 20,000 pack and so I often toss them in to resin while it’s curing to “spice it up” a bit. It doesn’t look nearly as good as the video they have of the board, but I am happy with it! Sadly I was a little short on filling up the entire board mold so my chess board isn’t completely level. But I’m thrilled I finally made one without messing it up like I did a few times before. Comes with really nice velour fabric drawstrings bags to hold your chess pieces too, which is a bonus. I stored all the molds in a large ziploc bag, that way they will all stay together. Molds are thick, but make sure they are SUPER rock solid cured before taking resin out of chess piece molds. A pawn I made lost its top ball shaped piece because it wasn’t all the way cured and I tried turning the mold inside out to remove the resin. The pieces stand up really well with the design they have for them. Easy to release as long as you are fully cured, you shouldn’t have a problem.

I was so excited to get this kit as i've wanted to make a chess board for a while now. The chess pieces turned out fantastic. All the molds worked beautifully, especially when following the directions on squeezing it as you poured the resin. The rest of the kit however i was greatly disappointed. Both the checkers mold and the board mold itself, bonded with the resin, ruining both molds when i tried to remove the molded resin. the board really surprised me. i made it in 3 pours, over the course of a week. the first pour was have the squares, the second pour was the other half of the squares, and the final pour was the backing and the outline. the mold bonded in places with the second and third pours. not sure why since the first pour demolded so well. i ended up taking an exacto knife to slowly cut away the mold from the resin. The checker mold was even worse. ended up just throwing the whole thing in the garbage. extremely disappointed.

Solid stuff. Pretty self explanatory for a novice resin artist. The possibilities are virtually endless on design. And if you have the skill you get to win against your friend on a board YOU made.

I don't know what's the deal with any bad review here, I had no problem with this set. There was one chess piece mold that was kind of crooked but it turned out fine. I wish I'd gotten the rack to hang the pieces. I had no issues removing the molds, anyone having issues must have been using bad resin.

comes with all the pieces and two nice bags.

Parfait, échiquier magnifique

Todo bien pero no me ha llegado la pieza del rey por lo que no he podido hacer bien el ajedrez... Y ahora me he quedado sin pieza :/

Da artigiana che lavora spesso con la resina, ho analizzato questo kit con occhio critico. Gli stampi sono di un silicone di buona qualità, con una finitura interna lucida che riduce drasticamente i tempi di post-lavorazione. ​Pro: I dettagli dei pezzi degli scacchi sono molto nitidi. Anche i pezzi più complessi si sformano senza troppa fatica. Contro: [Inserisci qui se hai trovato difetti, es: la scacchiera richiede molta attenzione per livellare bene i colori]. ​Consiglio tecnico: Per i pezzi piccoli, versate un velo di resina e passate uno stuzzicadenti nei dettagli per liberare le bolle prima di riempire lo stampo. ​Nel complesso, un set eccellente sia per chi inizia sia per chi cerca stampi duraturi

Me encantó para hacer juegos
