A puzzle designed by Stewart Coffin as seen on Instructables (http://www.instructables.com/id/Precision-Puzzlemaking-Primer----Volume-1/step9/3x3x3-cube-puzzles/). These are .STL files ready to be sliced or fed into your 3D printing software. I used a Printrbot Simple Metal with Cura. I wanted to test how well my printer can print interlocking parts. To start off easy and to make it look nice, I added some chamfers around each "cube" segment of each piece. This helps the pieces fit together better. The print time for each piece can vary from 1 hour to 1 hr 20 minutes depending on your settings. If there's anything wrong with the files or you'd like some advice on printing, leave a comment or ping me on Twitter @gbo_actual. Stay updated on my projects at my website freecision.com.
