A great book to learn how to make wood puzzles, Feb 5 2010
This review is from: Crafting Wood Logic Puzzles: 18 Three-dimensional Games for the Hands and Mind (Paperback)
Woodworking doesn't have to be all about making furniture. I was looking for a hobby that I could do in my spare time using my hands. I bought some woodworking equipment but was then faced with the daunting task of what to build.
This book helped find an answer. The projects inside are very well illustrated, and it gives all the steps needed to start you building wooden logic puzzles. I must admit the first one I built was pretty bad in construction. But the more I worked at it, the second, third and forth one got substantially better. Now I put them together just for the fun of it. The cost is minimal for equipment.
Depending on if you have a good wood supplier in your area, all you need is a Table Saw, and glue. For some of the more advanced projects you also need a dado blade. Make up some of the jigs described in the book, and you are off.
There is nothing more fun than having a puzzle on your coffee table and getting asked what it is. You take it apart and hand it to them, so they know it must go back together.
