Carbon puzzle by Donald Osselaer
Description
puzzlewillbeplayed.com/3BoardBurr/Carbon/
I used an eMaker Huxley with a 0.3mm nozzle.
Instructions
The pieces have been designed with no tolerance so will be a tight fit.
Trim any excess from the squashed base layer as this will prevent the puzzle from fitting together properly.

Hi there.
I'm the inventor of this puzzle ... or at least I think I was first :)
Don't worry ... I'm not here to bitch about copyrights as I don't believe in them.
I'm very pleased to see people being creative with my design.
They look lovely :)
I've never seen a 3D printer at work. Is it expensive to print these?
I live in Belgium ... is there a kind soul willing to send me one?
Have fun. 8-)
Hi Donald, good to see you here.
I'm a puzzle designer and puzzle maker too. I have a shop at Shapeways called microcubology where I sell 3D printed puzzles designed by me and other people.
I always get permission and pay commission when I sell a puzzle that someone else designed. Thingiverse is a bit different because people make their own stuff and the quality is lower but it's so much cheaper. A puzzle that might cost me
£10 at Shapeways costs about 50 pence to print on a reprap. Not all puzzles can be printed on reprap machines (overhanging edges need support material which leaves messy surfaces) so I scan the PWPB archives looking for good, printable puzzles and give them a wider audience.
Send me a PM and I'll
be happy to post a copy to you.
Would love to see a DXF file post of the design for us 3D printer challanged folks who
own a laser engraver.. thx, gmt
This is a great idea. Easy to print. Fun to play with. Thanks a lot!

I have had no luck reworking the tollerances on this so it works straight off the print bed. The closest I've gotten kinda twists when assmebled. Has anyone had any more luck?
