Description
Problem
Difficulty Finding the Shape You Want in Ready-Made Products
Ready-made products often offer only fixed pictures and sizes, which makes it hard to find a puzzle suited to a particular place or person. The choice of material and finish is also limited.
Solution
A Made-to-Order Approach from the Start
We first hear how you plan to use the puzzle and the shape you want, then create the design together. We choose the wood and finish and check the structure before completion, so you can get a puzzle close to the result you have in mind.
Even with the same picture, a wooden puzzle feels very different in the hand depending on the wood grain, the thickness, and the size of the pieces. In custom orders, we first discuss what the finished puzzle will be used for and who will handle it, then decide the shape and material to match. Whether you need thick pieces that are easy for a child to grip or a three-dimensional model to display on a desk for an adult, the design direction changes accordingly.
At the design stage, describe the picture or shape you have in mind, or send a reference image, and we will turn it into a 3D puzzle design. We review how the pieces interlock, the stability of the base, and the overall size of the finished piece, and organise the cut lines for laser cutting. Once the design is settled, we choose the wood type and finish, and you can confirm the final form before production begins.
Once production is complete, we check the piece count and fit of every part one by one, then package and deliver the puzzle. If you are ordering it as a gift, we can also discuss a message card or storage box. If you have any questions, feel free to leave them through our inquiry form.
Programme
-
Defining Your Requirements
Tell us the shape you want, how it will be used, and the age of the person who will play with it, and we will decide the direction of the project together. If you have reference photos or sketches, please send them along.
-
Design Drafting
Based on the agreed details, we create a 3D puzzle design. We review how the pieces interlock, their stability, and the finished size, and refine the structure so that it suits laser cutting.
-
Choosing Material and Finish
We select the wood species and surface finish. For children's puzzles we focus on the edge treatment and smoothness of the surface, while for decorative pieces we focus on the grain and colour.
-
Production and Delivery
Once the design is confirmed, we cut the pieces with a laser and check the fit of each one. The finished puzzle is packaged and delivered in the way we agreed.

Frequently asked questions
- What wood types can be used?
- We recommend wood based on how you plan to use the puzzle and the texture you want. For children's puzzles we prioritise safe finishes, and for decorative pieces we decide together during consultation based on the wood grain and colour.
- Can I order without a design?
- Yes, you can. Tell us the picture or shape you want and we will start from the design stage. A reference image helps us match your idea more precisely.
- What do you consider for children's puzzles?
- We focus on piece size, edge treatment, and surface smoothness. If you tell us the age group, we will set the design direction accordingly.
- How are the production period and cost determined?
- They depend on the shape, material, and number of pieces, so we give individual guidance after an inquiry. Once you share your requirements, we will put together a custom quote and schedule.
