Print in place, Parameterizable, 15-puzzle

thingiverse

An independent creation in OpenSCAD inspired by Angus Deveson's **Maker's Muse: Huge 3D Printed Sliding Puzzle! Print in Place "15-Puzzle"** OpenSCAD files are just a text files. You can edit the number of pieces, the gap, and the size of each piece. The file also has a 'slicer' object so you can add a topo-map or any other artwork and difference it with the slicer so the art sits on top of the pieces but not the gap. For artwork ideas, take a look at some lithopane makers. You will want to add artwork before printing, because a blank puzzle is pretty boring. I've included an Australia .stl, rendered with a 0.6mm gap, based on the aus.png grayscale image. The 2x2 version is so you can dial in your gap setting.
