Hi, I've just made this for my grandson's birthday, he'll be 24 months old and has been diagnosed as 'autistic'.
I made the puzzle in ? in. BB, and it came out with a 'slant'...(I've read since on the problem); so I took my Dremel and re-faced all the joints, to eliminate slant, and was pleased with the result. Being only 2 years old, it will be easier for him to assemble it.
So this is it, my first 'official' piece.

Thats very nice indeed, your pattern, never thought about using the Dremel for that.
Old minds don't work so good need a prompt every now and then.

That's a fine looking toy for a little one. Put the date on it somewhere for when he passes it on the next generation.
