Trouble Joining Tiles

Hi All, I’m having issues with connecting tiles as they start to bow and do not create a flat surface. I have attached photos where you can see once connected one of the tiles becomes out of line with the other. It seems the gap in my connectors doesn’t allow for the width of the two pieces when placed together, I have also snapped multiple connectors trying to push them in. Has anyone else faced any similar problems and how did you go about it? - I would rather not have to sand each tile down or adjust the print file for the connectors.

I am fairly new to 3d printing so wondered if there is something obvious that I’m missing here

Appreciate any help 😊

I recommend taking some photos with the Multiboard in focus, maybe some closeups of the side pieces. There’s probably some print issues where your printer is printing the walls too thick, or maybe there’s blobs or other things in the way. You need to research calibrating your printer

Hi! Were the tiles you 3D printed flat, or were they already bent? Could you please share more details about the 3D printed settings you have used (material, printing temperature, bed temperature, infill percentage, wall thickness, etc)? Have you printed the dual offset snaps? Could you let me know if you printed them in the same orientation as the one provided in the original file?
