Tips for the puzzle generator

3 mm plywood or MDF works well; keep pieces at least 15 mm across and tab necks wider than the material is thick.

  • 3 mm plywood or MDF works well; keep pieces at least 15 mm across and tab necks wider than the material is thick.
  • Engrave the picture first and cut without moving the sheet, so the picture lines up with the pieces.
  • For a photo, raise the contrast before you load it; engraving flattens mid-greys.
  • Change the layout number until the edge pieces look right, especially on a heart or circle.
  • Small children need large pieces: use the Kids style with 4 to 12 pieces, and a tray to keep them together.
