Anyone interested in learning how to make a simple wood cube puzzle? I recently posted a video on Garfum.com that shows exactly how to make one of these puzzles. All you really need to make one of these is a wood cube, a band saw, some masking tape, sandpaper and wood finish of your choice.
First cut a wavy line through the block. The complexity of the cut will depend on personal preference, density of the wood and tension in your band saw blade. Don't try to make the saw do something it is not capable of.
Once through the block tape it back together and rotate the cube and repeat the first step so you are cutting through a side that has not been cut. The block only needs three cuts total cuts.
After the third cut, remove the tape, then sand and apply a finish to the pieces.
I hope these direction are clear but if not you can see exactly what I mean by following the link below:
