Descripción

The Woodworkers puzzle is a 17-piece picture-frame brain teaser built for the person who already loves working with wood. Every piece is a tool or object you would find on a working bench, precision laser cut and engraved into five or more different woods, then set into a framed base. The result looks like a small piece of shop art until you lift the pieces out. Then the real question starts: can you fit all 17 back inside the frame?

It is a hard puzzle. Most people who have not studied the solution do not get it back together on the first try, which is exactly why it holds a woodworker's attention. A printed instruction and solution sheet is included for when the shop foreman in your family finally asks for a hint.

We make it in our own workshop in Hudson, Florida, with original artwork by Alexandra Plummer. The framed base measures 7.5 inches square and about three quarters of an inch deep, and it ships with a laser-engraved wood cover so it stores and displays like a keepsake, not a toy. See it in action.

Make it personal. Choose the engraving option to add a name, a date, or a short message on the bottom left of the frame. It is why this piece keeps showing up as the gift for retired carpenters, cabinet makers, and the dad or grandpa who is famously hard to buy for.

Handcrafted in Hudson, Florida, USA, and shipped from our Florida shop.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Woodworkers puzzle?

It is a 17-piece picture-frame brain teaser themed entirely around a woodshop. Each piece is a tool or shop object, precision laser cut and engraved into five or more different woods and set into a framed wooden base. Lift the pieces out and the challenge is to fit all 17 back inside the frame. It doubles as shop art on a shelf when it is assembled.

How hard is it, and how does it work?

It is rated Hard. Remove the 17 pieces, then work them back into the frame so everything sits flush inside the border. Most solvers who have not seen the solution do not get it back together on the first attempt, which is the point. We include a printed instruction and solution sheet, so there is always a way back if the puzzle wins the first round.

What is it made of and what comes in the box?

The pieces are cut and engraved from five or more different woods, so the grain and tone shift from tool to tool rather than being printed on. You receive the framed base board, the 17 wood pieces, a laser-engraved wood cover, and an instruction and solution sheet. The mixed woods are why no two copies look exactly alike.

Where is it made and how does it ship?

We handcraft it in our own workshop in Hudson, Florida, and it ships from our Florida shop, with standard orders on their way within one business day. The laser cutting and engraving are done in house on our own equipment, not outsourced.

Who is it a good gift for?

It is one of our most-gifted pieces for retired woodworkers, carpenters, and cabinet makers, and for the dad or grandpa who is hard to buy for. Buyers tell us it lands because it speaks the recipient's language: a challenge made of the tools they have used their whole lives. Browse the rest of the Hobbies and Outdoors picture-frame series for a matching gift.

Who designed it?

It is an original Creative Crafthouse design made in our Hudson, Florida workshop, with the original artwork created by Alexandra Plummer, an artist behind much of our personalizable picture-frame series. We design and cut it ourselves rather than reselling a factory puzzle.

Can I personalize the Woodworkers puzzle?

Yes. The Woodworkers puzzle can be personalized with a custom laser engraving on the bottom left of the frame. Add a name, date, or short message when you order. See our laser engraving page for details and examples. For a custom logo or artwork, request a quote for custom work.
