1. Download and Open the 3MF File: Start by downloading the provided 3MF file and opening it in your preferred 3D printing software.
2. Personalize in HueForge:
   • Launch HueForge and upload the image you want to use on your puzzle.
   • Set the following parameters:
     • Width: 116 - 160 (everything beyond 116 will be cut off)

     • Max Depth: 2.56 - 2.80
3. Adjust Color Profiles: Customize the number of layers for each color in HueForge according to your design. Remember, consistency is key—set the same number of layers per color later in your slicer software!
4. Export the STL File: Once you've adjusted your design, select File -> Export STL and save your file.
5. Prepare the Model for Printing in the Slicer:
   • Open your slicer software and go to the Objects tab.

   • Match the number of color layers from your HueForge project in the slicer settings.

6. Verify and Print: Double-check your settings to ensure everything is correct. Once verified, start printing your customized puzzle!
