That's one of my most popular puzzles because you can set him any way you want.

It looks great David, I just bought the same book, but haven't cut any yet. I guess after I read about sanding the edges of all the pieces, it looked like it would take a lot of time. What thickness wood do you use for the puzzles?

Hi Mark for this I used 3/4" pine, it's a bit soft but ok if handled with care.But this was laying around the woodworkshop I go to twice a week and they where going to throw it in the junk box. So I grabbed it.

Hey Boxmaker,  Just chuck a mop into your drill press.  It makes quick work of puzzle sanding.  Sand top and bottom before you cut and mop the edges.  Takes no time at all.
