I’m a pretty good club player, very comfortable with notation etc. I can visualise the board for about 10 moves but then it fades. Any tips for strengthening the image in my head? Should I picture a 2D chess set or 3D? Should white always be on the bottom? I just want to be able to play one blindfold game at a time from start to finish.

Ive been doing blindfold for a while.

My advice to you is: Visualize it however is easiest for you. Ask for help from a family member to "play you" when you are blindfolding.

Of course picture 2D set because it requires less visualisation. You can try blindfold chess apps but mainly by improving your chess you improve your blindfold chess so yeah.
