Travis Posted March 14, 2013 Report Posted March 14, 2013 If you're cutting a standard jigsaw puzzle, I'd go with the Superior Puzzle Blades. They are super thin, cut great, and you'll get tight interlocking pieces.If you're doing a standing puzzle, or tray puzzle, I'd use a #3 scroll reverse. The pieces will be fairly tight (make sure you get perpendicular cuts or they'll only fit one way...be careful to not flex the blade while cutting), but still have a bit of room so they fit easily.If you're doing a puzzle for a little kid, I'd use a #5 scroll reverse. It gives the pieces a little "breathing room" so they fit together easier.Anyway, those are my rules of thumb. Quote
