I finally got around to getting into the shop full time again. Well more full time than it has been anyway

I bought a Poplar board this week and placed a bunch of patterns and cut a bunch of puzzles.

Here are the current puzzle cuts (I still have 4 more to do) drying after a mineral oil bath:

There's a: Hippo, Tiger, Horse, Dachshund, Labrador, Mermaid, Manatee and a Dolphin

We've also started coloring bases for those puzzles that we cut them with, so this is the 3 water bases:

We still need to seal the water bases with shellac - the food coloring comes off on your hands 😞 not sure why but shellac stops it/seals it

Still need to color the ground bases - grassy color for the land animals

I think I've officially become an "Iggy-ite"

A big thanks to @Iguanadon for his videos, guidance and patience with my questions - Scott Rocks big time!

Thanks as always in advance for reading

I hate to break it to you, but... you cut them all wrong.  The lettering is backwards.

😄

Nice work, puzzle zombie!

LOL - I kinda mixed them up to fit them on the board so yeah, I know some are backwards but they still spell correctly ;)

Thank you Scott. I’ll go and have a look.
