Printed Customizable Block Puzzle

This alterable puzzle project is still in progress. I'm happy with the initial 3d print files. As of January 2025 I was working on the solver code. I have not made progress on that solver in a while, but this project is still on my radar.

Klotski

Klotski is a block slide puzzle in which a target block needs to touch all the walls of a gate to allow the gate to raise and get the target block out. Wiki:Klotski. It's a neat puzzle that I first saw as a wooden made set at a friend of my father's house. Eventually, I saw it on a Windows 3.1 machine.

Around Febuary 2023, I created interlocking pieces to a Klotski set.
