I have never even thought once, and you need to think twice to throw something that nice. I have the “Coronary” puzzle, it is made of Wenge and is beautiful, I refuse to look at the solution, but finally have it almost complete, just need to get the last piece in, so I need to be brave enough to take it apart enough to fit the last one in. Bravery has eluded me for over 6 months.

Best,
Rutager

I’m betting the puzzle maker has a JMP. Or two. They look like the perfect things to make with that saw. Perfect cuts and angles.

And those knives are gorgeous. But isn’t there some sort of taboo about giving knives as a gift? Something involving pennies, I think…

I may have 3,000 miles from when I flew out to Portland to get CAD training, maybe I could trade those for another clear plastic cursor for my JMP?

I think the puzzle maker was also at the CAD class and if he was, I can vouch that he’s a very nice fellow, and I bought a puzzle and not only is it fun, it is a work of art, finished to a very high standard which will make you think twice against throwing it against a wall when you can’t figure it out.
