    3d puzzle dxf files

    Hello, I am wondering if anyone can help me find some 3d puzzle files to cut on my laser. I have a few files already and have found it to be very interesting past time. If i can figure it out i will try to get an example pic up here of one of the puzzles. thanks for your help here are some free dxf puzzle files that i have for anyone who is interested. Youll have to figure out how to assemble them on your own- thats the fun part

    Check out the Dinosaur skeleton dxf files thread started by ynneb. There's 11 pages of posts to sort through for 3D puzzles. That should keep you busy for awhile.


    Have fun,

Most of them are 2d dxf files but all the 3d ones i posted a attachment above. Ive been runing through these old threads and takin in all the files i can so i should be busy for a while. if i find something new i will post it for everyone

    I put all the files in a single zip file, download the zip then see If they work.

    (All the links above worked for me)

    I used to use that as well but ran into the same issues. Try progeCAD 2008 Smart! It's completely free for private use and works perfectly for me everytime. I learned of this fine program from the folks here so it's nice to be able "give back" once in awhile-

    Guys, the Eagle file is set up for a .05" slot but I need .125" (based on 1/8" ply) ... is it simply a matter of scaling the whole drawing, or (and more preferable) can someone explain the easiest way of scaling just the slots?

    blackbeard, thank you for this. I took some time laying out the pieces for my router's table size and material ... now I just need to go get another sheet of 1/8" ply I'll post a photo when I'm done.
