How to make interlocking pieces from one mesh?

I have a Zbrush sculpture that I want to cut into pieces for 3D printing. I am hoping to create interlocking shapes so it will be easy to put it together once the pieces have been printed. I can cut the sculpture into pieces, by masking and deleting hidden, but when I close the individual pieces, they don’t have hard edges. I have been closing the pieces using Dynamesh. Can someone please tell me the best way to do this? Thanks so much!

Someone has a good tutorial on this forum. Search for keys, or cuts maybe?

I believe this threadis the one Gordon Robb is referring to.

Gordon - Thanks, but I’ve searched and search and haven’t fund anything.

Thanks so much!! I appreciate the help from both of you.

Yep, that’s the one. Works a treat. Make sure you have high enough dynamesh resolution.
