Wooden Puzzles
For Children Of All Ages
"WOOD-N-PUZZLES" was formed in 1992 by Ernie and Bobbie Pratt in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire where it remains today.
This company was started as an extension of a hobby and has evolved into the busy operation it is today. Approximately 125 different puzzles are offered with new patterns constantly being added.
The puzzles are all made from top quality products. All puzzles are cut out of 1/2" Birch or Maple plywood with a 1/2" Birch or Maple backer making each puzzle a full 1" thick. Our puzzle stools are made with two 1/2" laminated Birch or Maple pieces making the top a full 1" thick. The stool sides are made from 3/4" #2 Eastern Pine.
All painted surfaces are done with nontoxic acrylic water based enamel. The frame(box) and stool bottoms are supplied ready to finish.(We can finnish the frames with a danish oil for an additional $5,00 fee-Please call for information) The colors used can vary from puzzle to puzzle as they are created "one at a time" and at different times. If a special color or sequence is wanted please note this on your order.
A unique feature is the "Keyhole" cut into the back of all our puzzles. This "Keyhole" makes it possible to hang the puzzle on the wall to be saved for future generations as well as make an attractive wall decoration. The puzzles will also stand on thier own for display and storage.
Custom puzzles and stools can be created and shipped anywhere in approximately 2 weeks from receipt of order. Please contact us for furthur information.
Have a great day, Ernie and Bobbie Pratt
