Hello again....
On March 12 I started a thread called "Future Puzzles" with photos of five pictures I had mounted and ready to cut into puzzles. I'm please to show you the first two.
"Mocha" turned out to be a really phun puzzle to put together. All the cups at left and right are pieces unto themselves. It's colorful and not too challenging: perhaps good for a family project. Roughly 260 pieces
"CocaCola" is another story. Many of you were intrigued by the picture of this one. My wife hasn't done it yet, but I think it's going to be a toughie. It's 300+ pieces, with each of the many sections forming mini-puzzles. It's hard to see the cuts from the front view. The back view shows them better, except for some very fine cuts around and below the center at left. I wondered why I began to break blades suddenly, and then discovered I was using the 8/0 jewelers blades I use for cutting postage stamp puzzles. I immediately went back to my trustworthy FD Superior Puzzle blades.
And the last photo? That's a current picture of Wendy, now 40 pounds, 6 years old, ultra-soft fur, healthy and the friendliest dog I have ever witnessed, which is amazing considering the amount of terrier and chow she has in her (she has a blue-black tongue). She's the one we "rescued" with a lung infection, heartworm and pregnant.
