Puzzle of Evil

Printer not dialled into a tee? Struggle with print-in-place hinges? Good news! 
A long-awaited update is available - the Puzzle of Evil 2.0!
This updated version includes a simple hinge utilising a section of filament, and a switch to 6x2mm magnets (commonly used for Gridfinity).

This Evil Puzzle will keep you busy for many many hours!

Simply place the four puzzle pieces within the available space.

Sounds pretty easy, doesn't it!

With both an easy, and a hard option, no matter your ability, you should find some enjoyment and satisfaction with this small puzzle.

The folding clamshell puzzle can happily hold all four of the pieces even if you've not managed to complete the puzzle, so is perfect to pop in your pocket, bag or keep on your desk.

I have included two versions of the clamshell:

• One with 3x2mm recesses for a small magnet (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32784908257.html or similar)
• One without recesses.

Each part can be printed in one piece, without the need for supports.

Some gentle force may be needed to initially move the hinge - once movement is established, further movement will make the folding smoother.

I would recommend printing with a brim, just to prevent any corners from curling, and improving the accuracy/fit of the pieces and clamshell.

Print at high quality (0.16 worked best for me) for the best accuracy and overall look.

This is a remixed version of Joe Larson's 3D Printed Puzzle of Evil, combined with rohingosling's Parametric Hinge
