Brookie uses a jig saw to cut these jigsaw puzzles out of an extra thick mahogany wood.
Her mom Kaaren designs a lot of the artwork.
BCB Puzzles are some of the best jigsaw puzzles in the world, with tightly-interlocking pieces (she uses a really, really thin blade!) and fun designs.
One thing that hand-cutters can do that is hard for laser-cutters is color-line cutting, where you cut right along the lines between colors, making for a more difficult puzzle.
For example, their porcelain cat puzzle cuts out a bunch of cats in the image as whimsies, which makes for some extra cuteness and challenge:
Here are some of the color-line cut whimsies from that one:
And 4 of the 5 BCB Puzzles we are selling are in her bamboozled style, which is similar to the Stave Teaser puzzles in that first you put together a frame of pieces, and then you have to figure out how the whimsy pieces fit in, but there are lots of drop-outs so it can be rather a good challenge.
For example, here's what the frame looks like for Grannys Attic:
And somehow you have to get this jumble of whimsies to fit!
Here's a picture of her newest bamboozled puzzle design Under The Sea:
We asked Brookie to rank the 4 bamboozled puzzles we have easiest to hardest, and she tells us:
Generally the BCB bamboozled puzzles are considered a bit easier than the average Stave teaser puzzle, but that Hat Shoppe one is really darn hard.
Usually top hand-cut puzzles like this have to be custom-ordered and you wait maybe weeks. But you can now buy these 5 BCB puzzles anytime from our website with free shipping and get them in a week or so, or pay for priority shipping and get them in 2-3 days.
