A simple little puzzle - nothing special but I find myself fidgeting with it when I'm doing other things - hence the title. You'll need to print three of them and they can be made of anything - in the images above I have Silk, Tri-Silk, Wood, Marble, Transparent and PLA+.

Designed in OnShape CAD and printed with Orca Slicer.

Printing

Layer height can be 0.16 or 0.2 mm, and I used 4/4/4 walls/top/bottom.

For strength they need to be printed on their side (ask me how I know this…) so it will need supports. However it doesn't take a lot and I've found that using painted Tree support as follows works pretty well and needs minimal cleanup. I adjusted the support interface to be pretty dense so that it comes off in mostly one piece (in Orca I checked On Build Plate on and set Top Interface Spacing to 0.2mm). 

Solution

It's easier to show than to explain - but do try for yourself first!
