Dome Chess Board

This is project is a work in progress.

Inspired by this chess board, I wanted to try making a dome shaped chess board. Thanks to my friend Fred, I was able to get my hands on an aluminum hemisphere and with his help I have been working on shaping and cleaning it up.
The top surface will be painted with magnetic primer before the chess board pattern is painted on. This way I can use standard magnetic chess pieces. Eventually I would like to make my own chess set with my 3D printer. More to come soon...
