Yeah, that's something you could do, but getting the individual parts all aligned properly and glued down would be a pain. I guess it would be possible to print a tool to make it easier, but that's certainly a lot more work.

Yeah, I can see how aligning small face pieces would be problematic. Although, how hard would it be to make small indents on the back piece that would perfectly fit the elements?

If you have the CAD files, not hard. That's most often not the case if you downloaded the model from a site like printables.com or thingiverse.com, as I did with this model.

Some slicer programs might let you do that too, but probably not as easily or as well as CAD software.

Thank you very much for all your detailed answers!

Well you know it's very hard to get 3D printing enthusiasts to talk about 3D printing.
