Description

A Fiendish Hex Puzzle

This model was designed by my 15-year-old son as my birthday present.

It was created in Blender as base and pieces in one file, exported into Fusion-360 to then export as a .3mf file. I then split the model into base and pieces so they can be printed in different colours.

I was very impressed with the result and thought I'd share it with the community.

 

It is very quick to print on my Prusa Mini.

 

I've not supplied g-code files as it is very easy to slice yourself.

The base prints in about 47-minutes in PLA at 0.15mm layer height (quality).

The pieces in 34-minutes with the same settings.

I'm sure it would still print fine and faster at 0.20mm layer height.

 

It appears that there are several solutions to this puzzle, not just the one shown in the photograph. 

It can also be made a bit easier by placing a black dot on one side of each piece.
