Below is a curated selection of my unique puzzle creations. Hand-cut pieces are lovingly cut with my Delta scrollsaw, and lasercut puzzles feature my own artwork (unless noted) and hand-drawn pieces, precisely cut by my GlowForge laser. The process is everything to me so I try my best to make each puzzle unique, interesting, and fun to make. I must genuinely enjoy making a puzzle in order to share that love with others.
