Thanks again to you and to everyone else on this forum who have helpled me!
Sure is and the file is great! Check out this thread,
Has any one ever done the f15 puzzle larger with thicker material. I have a customer that wants one with like a 36" wingspan out of 3/16 material. This just seems like a lot of work and I am very busy right now......so much on my plate already. Was just hoping for some luck in that someone may have already sized this for me...Any help would be very appreciated.
These look really neat will hopefully try one this weekend. Has anyone cut them with Plasmacam software? Just wondering how the notches and tight corners will come out. Thanks for the files.
The starting post, with several files listed.... I cannot see any way to download that list of files... I can download all the subsequent files... what am I missing?

For example...if you want to use .119" material, then you would have to divide .119 by .060 (.119/.060)=1.98. You then would want to scale image in all directions by 1.98. If you want to use .25 plywood, then you would scale by 4.16.
The reason I use 16 ga material, is that we have a lot of drops of that size, and its free!!!
Should I post some more puzzles?
This should help you out RGR.

do the pieces fit together loosely or are they a snug fit? Was just wondering how they were held together, or if you guys were just putting tack welds on it all.
Thanks for the puzzles, hope I can get to cut some of them out, and try them
ones that I have tried would not cut out in proper sequence, I need to learn
how to set this up before I mess up any more, still learning the process
again thanks to all that make this site as fantastic as it is
