Cutting Large Pieces to fit the print bed

Breaking up larger pieces to print on the smaller print bed is relatively straight-forward to do with the bundled software.

Since we know that 3×3 squares will fit on our print bed we just need to break the room into 4 pieces in a way that makes it easiest to hide the join when we glue the pieces together.

With the tiling system that we are using, cutting between the floor squares should give us the best results.

With all the cuts made, the 4 pieces are saved as separate files so they can be estimated separately and printed later.
