This two-piece puzzle has a lot to offer: it’s easy to make, satisfying to solve, and in its assembled form, it᾿s handsome aesthetics look great displayed on any shelf. When assembled properly, the two pieces form a four-sided pyramid. Make one for yourself and others to send out to your favorite youngsters for some unplugged fun. While you can cut the parts from any species, dense, tight-grained hardwoods such as maple and cherry lend themselves well to such work. If you need a hand solving this puzzle, peek at the photo on page 59.
