Puzzles for My Grandson Complete

[Scrappile]

This is what I came up with to finish off the puzzles I did for my grandson.  At least these will store the puzzles when he is done putting together.  I did not put a finish on them because he like to color and paint.  I think he would enjoy that as much as putting them together.

Ditto on what everyone has commented. I like your idea and may give it a go. I have never cut puzzles before and I might just attempt it using your technique.

Very nice work Paul and I am sure your grandson will be thrilled with the puzzles and the ability to color as he desires.  Thanks for showing.  Can you "explain" how you did the boards to fit them in for a newbie like me please?  Thanks.

Your grandson will love those, nice job. Paul.

I put the puzzles together, laid then on the board to see where they fit.  Held the puzzle in place as I traced around the puzzle.  The board is the same thickness as the puzzles.  I cut out the silhouette, than glued a 1/8" thick backer board on.
