Pizza Jigsaw Puzzles

The color changes can be achieved on a single color printer by swapping filaments at key layers.

Each puzzle (large and small) is made of two pieces using the negative volume feature of slicers. When you overlap two meshes and set one to be a negative volume, the volume of the second is cut away from the first mesh just as if you performed a boolean cut in Fusion of Blender. The advantages of this technique are that this doesn't crash the software, take hours to process or generate meshes filled with errors. To print it, load the puzzle and cutter into your slicer and apply the cutter as a negative volume. If you use PrusaSlicer, you can just use my project files.

- Brim: I used a brim for the 200mm puzzle, but not the 300mm puzzle
