Popular Post John B Posted September 17, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 17, 2022 Another puzzle to add to my collection. I think I will try #3 blade next time, although I have to be careful as the paint fills up the cuts pretty quickly. I don't like the pieces to be too tight as it frustrates the kiddies. I used an Olson Mac 7 to cut the perimeter and a PG#5 for internal cuts. Jim McDonald, Scrappile, ChelCass and 13 others 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted September 18, 2022 Report Share Posted September 18, 2022 Those are really cute....How do you paint the eyes so perfectly? John B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie E Posted September 18, 2022 Report Share Posted September 18, 2022 I really love those! The combination of colors and the shape of the puzzle pieces really work amazingly with it being a giraffe. Those are eyecatchers and I'm betting will be good sellers.

heppnerguy Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Nice projects. I love these little guys. I am thinking about cutting some animal puzzles for four of my 2 and 3 year old grand kids this Christmas. These sure would work well for that. Great job. The great painting jobs really make them pop Dick heppnerguy John B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Paul. The eyes are "Googly) eyes which I set in to the timber and fix with superglue. Like these If only I could paint like that Edited September 20, 2022 by John B Scrappile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went to a Markets in Coolgardie on Sunday, about 1/2 hour away from home. Two different people bought these two, one while we were still setting up another about 15 minutes after the official opening. barb.j.enders and Charlie E 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I showed them to my 5 year old granddaughter and she said, “Woah!” Whatever you’re charging, charge more! John B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
