Motorcycle puzzle
« on: April 16, 2014, 09:21:06 pm »
I know I've seen a puzzle of a motorcycle but despite my best efforts can't find a site that sells the pattern. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you, Barry.

Is this any good. Not perfect, I know, but you could easily alter it to suit before cutting. Should print at about 6.5" x 3.5"

I just realised that it's no good as it is, it splits down the middle, so I've redone it.

Thanks Martin a nice looking bike puzzle
But I have a wee problem with the d/load, If I Right click on the picture to show in New Tab the picture is bigger and I can copy it to Inkscape and such but this time all I get is a Black rectangle.
And if I click on the File beneath the picture It saves to my D/Load Folder and I can't open PHP files.
any suggestions please

Merlin, have you tried left clicking the link? I can download it that way. I don't know why it's black if you open in another tab as it's white if I do it. I'm uploading again as a jpg instead of png. If you still can't get it, PM your email address and I'll email it to you.

Thanks for the reply.
Yes Left clicking always did work, done some testing and when I first left click on the D/load link it works but if I do it again (say two days later) it D/loads a file with the name "index (1).php"
Could never figure it out, but I think I have now, the index file can be opened in Libre and the microsoft picture viewer which I have never been able to do before.
I think it's those computer gremlins again (possibly an old bugger that don't understand computers) ;D  ::) ;D

PS just tried again and it didn't open in Libre this time but is in microsoft picture viewer. Go figure .

Here's my cutting in 1" thick Birch, 10.75" long. The 4 1/2 year old could assemble it without trouble. The single neck connection at the top of the front fork is a little loose so this one is a low rider. Might be good to add a locking shape to hold the rear wheel in tighter. Thanks Martin.
