Yize abantu abaningi becabanga nge-chess njengomdlalo oyisicefe, ongaxhumene nabo ongawubuka, akukho okuyisicefe mayelana nesethi ye-chess ekhanyisa ebumnyameni. Iklanywe ngumdali we-YouTube I-CraftStation, uphinda ahlele kabusha isethi ye-chess endala, yokhuni futhi asebenzise izingcezu njengesikhunta sesethi emangalisayo eyenziwe nge-resin-casted:
Ngemva kokumboza izingcezu ze-chess ezitsheni ezimbalwa ezihlanganiswe ngokushesha ze-plexiglass, i-CraftStation ithela ingxube yegwebu ukulingisa amakhonsathi abo. Njengoba igwebu seliqinile, usika izingcezu ze-chess futhi asebenzise igwebu njengesikhunta sesethi yakhe entsha ye-resin chess.
Esebenzisa ingxube yenhlaka, amanzi, nodayi (oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka kolunye uhlangothi nomhlophe kolunye), ugcwalisa isikhunta sesiqeshana se-chess ukuze akhe izingcezu zakhe. Ube esegcina lezi sikhunta zinganyakazi endaweni ebheke phansi esebenzisa izingcezu zokhuni namabhande enjoloba ngenkathi elindele ukuba zome.
Lapho inhlaka seyomile, ukhipha izingcezu ze-chess egwebu, anqume inhlaka eningi, bese esebenzisa i-sandpaper engama-grit angu-200 ukuze ashelele phansi ngaphambi kokuqeda ngephepha lesandpaper elingamagrit angu-800. Uphinda asebenzise izingcezu ngepholisha ukuze azenze zicwebezele futhi engeza omazibuthe abancane ezinqeni zazo ukuze azinike isisindo esengeziwe futhi avule i-chessboard ekhanyayo.
Manje ngengxenye ekhanyisa ngempela: i-chessboard. Ngokungafani nezingcezu ze-chess ezisebenzisa isikhunta, ingaphezulu lebhodi liphrintiwe nge-3D, lingenalutho, futhi lenziwe ngepulasitiki elikhanyayo ukuze kudlule ukukhanya kulo. Ngemva kokusika impahla eyeqile, i-CraftStation ihlela izingcezu eziphezulu futhi izinamathisele ndawonye ukuze zakhe inkundla yokudlala ye-chessboard.
Ukwakha umzimba we-chessboard kuyisiko kakhulu. Esebenzisa izingcezu zokhuni wazisika yena kanye nenqwaba yeglue yokhuni, usebenza ebaleni lokudlala kuze kube yilapho kwakheka umngcele omuhle omhlophe.
Uma kwenzeka ubuzibuza ukuthi kungani i-chessboard ingenalutho, kungenxa yokuthi ikwazi ukuvula indawo yazo zonke izinto zikagesi ezizoyivumela ukuthi ikhanye ebumnyameni. Ngemva kokubhoboza izimbobo ezithile ukwengeza izinombolo, izinhlamvu, izibambo, kanye neswishi ebhodini, i-CraftStation iqala ukusebenza emagcekeni ebhodi lakhe le-chess.
Ngokwakha umjikelezo olula usebenzisa uzibuthe, i-LED, neswishi yomhlanga, izibani ezingaphansi kwebhodi le-chess zikhanya njalo lapho insimbi engaphansi kwezingcezu ze-chess ithintana nozibuthe. Lokhu kuvumela ibhodi ukuthi likhanyise kuphela ezindaweni lapho abadlali bebeka khona izingcezu zabo futhi kwenze ukuqala kwegeyimu kukhanyise amakhona amabili aphikisanayo ebhodi.
I-CraftStation inamathisela ngokucophelela uzibuthe esiqeshini ngasinye ebhodini le-chess; ukwenza isiqiniseko sokuthi awuphuli isekethe ngephutha. Udayisela isekethe ezinombolweni ze-chessboard kanye nezinhlamvu ngaphambi kokunamathisela izibani ze-LED emingceleni yezingcezu zenkundla yokudlala ye-chessboard. Lena ingxenye edla isikhathi esiningi kakhulu yephrojekthi kodwa uma isiqediwe, yonke isethi izokhanya njengoKhisimusi.
Wengeza amanye ama-LED ambalwa phansi ebhodini le-chess ngaphambi kokumboza imingcele ngopende ophuzi nomnyama.
Ukushaja i-chessboard ifoni yakho ukuze idlale umculo onomsindo ohlekisayo kuyibhonasi enhle, kodwa ukwazi ukudlala ngayo ebumnyameni kuhle kakhulu. Manje esikhundleni sokufihla uthando lwakho lwezemidlalo ngemva kweminyango evaliwe nasezindlini zomhlalaphansi, ungakwazi ukuphuphuthekisa ababukele ngoxhaxha lwamalambu akhanyayo kanye nesethi ye-chess ebukeka kahle.
I-CraftStation yenza amathani amaphrojekthi e-DIY amaningi, wonke ongawathola kweyakhe Isiteshi se-YouTube.
