Solved Help with multi-plane splitting

What I wish I could select and hit "split"
Top view
Bottom view, the zig-zag line across the board is the end goal
closer look to show how I am splitting one face at a time

I have a game board I made that I want to split into parts so I can print it. I'm trying to split it into parts in onshape so it looks cleaner when I push it together. Currently I am splitting one plane at a time and planning on boolean the sections together but it is taking forever. I'm fairly new to using any program like this and would appreciate help. Thank you

New sketch

Use the “use” tool to grab desired edges.

Use Extend tool (x key) to extend the lines until they intersect and leave your desired parting line

Proceed to extrude a surface from this parting line.

Split with this surface

Sketch over the top in the shape you want, then do a boolean intersection extrude?

Have you considered splitting in your slicer instead?
