Well I have finished this puzzle. it was a nice simple thing to cut. It looks harder then it actually is to put together. Each layer is slightly bigger then the previous so you can eyeball the pieces and pretty much tell what level they are from.
Enjoy the pictures.

Christmas Card Puzzle
Well I completed something I have been meaning to do for a while now. That is convert a Christmas card to a puzzle. It is simple take a Christmas Card you like and cut the front off. then glue that to a piece of BB ply. I choose 1/8 most people seem to use 1/4 but I have a bunch of 1/8 hanging around so I might as well use that!
It came out decent the 1/8 seems like a good choice time will tell. I put a clearcoat on it prior to cutting out the puzzle. I did not "Free hand it" I created the pattern and used another piece of ply on top with the pattern applied to that. I made it a 77 piece puzzle. Why 77? Well that is just what it worked out to be.
