UNIVERSAL ENGRAVER CAN A CNC WOOD TURNING MACHINE MAKE CHESS?
UNIVERSAL ENGRAVER It is exuberant how there are people who use ordinary wood lathes to care for perfect chess pieces. The majority of people still use wood lathes for making chess, And they render beautiful chess every time they do it. Their excellent skills and artisanship are unparalleled. However, customers question whether CNC woodturning machines can be used to make chess. Considering the technological advancement these days and tools available to perform almost any task, CNC woodturning machines can be used to make chess. And the method is easy, feasible, and economical.

CNC Wood Turning Machine. A CNC wood lathe is categorically designed to perform functions related to engraving. This advanced machine ensures that functions such as wood milling, woodturning, and carving are performed with utmost precision and perfection. A chessboard typically has six kinds of chess pieces - Pawn, Rook, Knight, Bishop, Queen, and the King. While the pawn can be completely turned on a CNC wood lathe, the other five chess pieces can only be partially turned owing to their design which requires detailing. This detailing cannot be done using a CNC wood turning machine.
UNIVERSAL ENGRAVER Universal engraver reviews and takes a closer look at these chess pieces for easy understanding. Pawn: The Unique selling point of the pawn is that it is cylindrical and symmetrical in its shape. This makes it easier to be turned using a CNC wood lathe
CRAVING 01 02 Pawn Rook The Unique selling point of the pawn is that it is cylindrical and symmetrical in its shape. This makes it easier to be turned using a CNC wood lathe When it comes to carving the rook, The majority of the turning can be performed using the CNC wood lathe, except for the slots on the head. Hence, as practice, These slots are made manually later since they are easy to execute. 03 Knight Knight’s base can be turned using the CNC wood lathe. Since the Knight’s head is not cylinder-based, it cannot be turned using CNC. The Knight’s head consists of details such as eye, mouth, etc, and while these can be carved using hand (although not an easy task), There are other machines such as a 4axis CNC carving machine or a 5-axis router, Which can perform this task ideally.
CRAVING 04 05 Bishop Queen The queen has the most intricate design across all chess pieces, and that is the top part of the crown. Therefore, while the rest of the Queen can be turned on the CNC wood lathe, the crown top can be either handcrafted or mechanized with the help of a more advanced 5-axis CNC. Almost the whole of Bishop can be turned using a CNC wood lathe, except for the slots on the head. Similar to the rook, these slots can be handcrafted separately 06 King The King’s base and head can be turned using the CNC wood lathe, however, the small detail on the top of its head requires it to be either handmade or milled by an advanced CNC such as 5 axis CNC.
