Default 2 new puzzles

Here are pictures of two new puzzles. The turtle is from Sue Coccia's calendar for my brother and sister in law in Florida. I cut it with a #1 blade from JGR. I cut it with a free hand technique. The Seattle postcard one I cut with Mike's puzzle blades. And YES - your guys (Mike) are right, they really are very nice blades. I slowed my saw to it's lowest speed and it went very smoothly. I did use a grid and cut it on the diagonal It has 80 pieces in it's small 4" x 6" size. NO ONE is ever going to get it together. I can pick it up by one corner. Yeah!! I didn't break one blade on that postcard. I'm sold on those blades - thanks everyone for pushing me to get them. (Two more Christmas gifts can be checked off the list.)
The gals at the bowling league think I'm crazy for cutting these little things. Little do they know - I have lots of company. (smile)

The internet is the great meeting place of all the loonies in the world.

I love your turtle!

You are doing an excellent job..One tiny thing. You need to sign the back of each one and date them.

You have come along way!
