That turned out nice Ray...I just cut my pieces out using a #5 FD UR blade and that seems to give plenty of clearance for removal of the pieces.
News: Had a couple issues with the forum today. 1/19/2017. I believe I have them corrected now. Let me know if you have any trouble. Thanks.

Nicely done. You knew someone would ask for the pattern...So Please. I made 2 of them today and just made them out of 1/4" ply with a 1/8" backer. Look fine, child can't get a hold of the pieces without turning it over though..may consider cutting the pieces out of something thicker next time hated to waste the wood.
Sorry no pics yet paint is drying.

Rog,
You took most of the ideas right out of my keyboard.....I have learned most of those same things, in my research of building functioning bird houses. I was unaware about the not particularly liking new wood. I may refrain from sanding down the interior of the houses from now on pre-assembly. Thanks for the tip. My houses for the most part (not always) would go uninhabited for a season as well and I always wondered why...

Just curious were any holes drilled near the top to allow heat to escape or do you think that will be necessary? Nicely done. Interesting concept.

Thank you. You did nice job. I'll be cutting these soon. I had to re-size the patterns to get them to fit on a page but that was a simple matter within my print program. Just pointing that out in case someone else runs into difficulty.

Pitch it...I think not! I'd love to have the pattern in our toys section. I'd even cut one for my new grand son.
Hint hint about the pattern...

How did you make the name templates? Did you take a laptop and printer? Did you use plastic letters?

I'm sure they will love it. Pretty small pieces for a 2 year old even a 4 year old though. I'd be worried about choking. I wouldn't leave them alone with the puzzle pieces...

You might try cleaning with naval jelly to ensure you get all the rust. Then paint it with Krylon Rust Tough? Rust Preventative Enamel. You can get it in white and flat black. After it cures you should be able to wax over it.

Your own saliva/spit is the best item to use for breaking down blood and removing from a project. Try it.
