Putting the puzzle together was really easy there was one piece a little tight the rest fine. I think this might have took me an hour to cut most likely because first one ever done. I’m not sure on how high I went with speed I just new I started and nothing was happening. So I cranked it up a little. When cutting this thing the feet scared me I thought they would break off on a board slap but never did.

Thank you guys for your comments. I printed 3 more of these out and want to start a collection of puzzles hopefully for one day to sell. This one is for my friends daughter. She has been asking her parents for a pug for Christmas, well she is getting her pug. Other then that when I brought it in the house to show my wife my daughter said she wanted a horse done and son a firetruck. I guess there are my next patterns.

First puzzle done. When cutting it I was using fd ultra reverse size 3 in 3/4 popular. Compared to my other items I had to crank the speed up used to be cutting around a quarter inch stuff. Also I am not sure if I should be using an ultra reverse blade here or not. The pieces fit nice together but when moving there is a little slop between the pieces or are all puzzles this way?

I guess I have been using watch natural danish oil to stain my other projects with foam brushes. Will they combust as well and could I just leave the danish oil in a plastic container for dipping?

This will be great for my dog and his water dish. He seams to always rips it over with about and 1/8th left.

When dipping with danish oil do you dilute it or just strait danish oil? For the dry time how long does it uasally take?

How do you guys finish your puzzles. Do you brush on the finish on each piece or do you dip it?

For the pieces I was going to do the letters of the name and maybe a animal on the side. So the size should be pretty big.

I am going to make some puzzles for my Nephews and Nieces, but what do I finish them with. They are from the ages of 1 to 3 so possibly a piece might end up in the mouth.
