Topographic USA Puzzle

First of my Topographical Puzzles, files are available for sale on Cults3D!

Designing this was a ton of fun! I went through many different versions, trying to get the clearances between states in a sweet spot. The difference between 'snap together' and 'frustrating to align' was a big consideration, especially because everyone's printer is different.

I kept the STL files at a high detail in case anyone wanted to try printing it in resin, a majority of the finer details would never show up in FDM.

Overall I'm happy with the project, and helped develop a flow that carried on into my other puzzle maps!

I ended up makin two different maps, a smaller 44 Piece that fused together some of the Eastern states, hopefully that makes losing pieces harder.

The other "Jumbo Version" is much larger, and each state is represented with it's own piece.
