I have no idea why Mookie is named Mookie. But, my sister has been missing him so I figured I could try something new.
Mookie is engraved onto some HDF whiteboard/marker board and then cut up into a puzzle, with a few special pieces spelling out his name.
Two layers of 1/4” wood create both a puzzle tray to assemble in and then display using the awesome holders designed by @Janerlea
I had it all boxed up when I realized I may want some pictures of it. So I had the privilege of making sure it all actually went back together. It’s harder than it looks for an 80-piece Puzzle!
Nah. This was the OG Mookie. Mookie Betta has only been around since like 2010-2011. And I have better chances of winning the lotto than her naming a cat after a sports figure.
That is gorgeous! My daughter would love a puzzle like that. Where could I find the specs to engrave and cut a puzzle. I have tried to do a picture before but the detail in yours is so amazing! Your sister is a very lucky girl to have such a thoughtful brother!
Any tips on cutting the puzzle pieces? I’m currently engraving 1/4 inch and would like to make it into a puzzle… the first try was awful (too many pieces) and you couldn’t see the picture after assembling the photo. (my post)
From what I read in your other posts, I’ve taken off the masking and plan to cut the piece from the back. Is that going to work or do I need to keep it 1/8 inch and smaller?
Might just stop while i’m ahead and just put it on a stand
