See caveat below! A remix to give different sizes for glue-less interlocking mechanism for 3D prints. 5mm, 10mm, 15mm, and 20mm included as stl. Both with and without a base. Just for ease of design.
Caveat:
Polypanels have great connectors and a whole community around it if that could work better for your idea. Also, the idea behind them are really cool. This is more aimed toward connecting flat things semi-permanently with seamless connections, such a leg connecting to a body of a miniature, or a large print where it has to be split up and the upper print connects to a lower print. Generally best used on flat surfaces as well, though not necessarily.

From the creator #modelmaker_PVG:
"I've been working on a system to allow me to click my 3D printed parts together without using glue and I think I've actually cracked it! Introducing PVG's Click Fit Interlock System, a system for clicking 3D printed parts together!
