This is a completely print-in-place sliding tile puzzle. There are six models and a customizable puzzle you can make simply using PrusaSlicer!

4x4
- Plain (Blank Tiles)
- Numbered
- 3D Elevation Puzzle
- 3D Spherical Cap
5x5 Plain (Blank Tiles)
6x6 Plain (Blank Tiles)

The tiles are unable to be taken out of the containment ring.

The experimental custom puzzle file (\"Create Custom Puzzle in PrusaSlicer.3mf\") allows you to create your own puzzle directly in Prusa Slicer with almost any model! Instructions are shown at the bottom of the description.

Feel free to modify all of the .stl's with attribution, and If you make one post a picture!

Troubleshooting

After printing go around to each tile and make sure it is fully separated from it's neighbors, the precision required is very tight in order to keep the tiles fully captive. If your printer is having trouble, try scaling the model 10-20%.

Multiple Colors

Using Slic3r or equivalent software you can also do a filament swap to get different colored numbers on the tiles. You can also glue a picture to the front of the tiles and use an exacto knife to cut through the gaps to make a completely custom puzzle.

Instructions on Custom 3D Puzzle using PrusaSlicer

Open \"Create Custom Puzzle in PrusaSlicer.3mf\"

Right Click \u201cSliding Puzzle Plain.STL\u201d Editing button, Select Add part, and then Load \u2026

Browse and select the .stl model you would like to add to the top of the puzzle tile, place the model within the square formed by the tiles

Make sure the puzzle is still the bottom-most model, and slice! Make sure to post a picture!
