![]() Puzzle boards are made of wood, plastic or even steel with holes punched into it. These holes help children match colors and shapes by placing the pieces in the right order. The puzzle boards with storage also helps develop hand-eye coordination, spatial thinking and color recognition. The steps to create a puzzle BoardThere are a lot of different ways to create an enchanting puzzle board. They can be constructed easy and don't require much equipment. Of course, you could create a puzzle with no children at all! Drill and cut holes You use the drill to cut holes into your board using a hole cutter that you can buy at most hardware stores. It is important to choose the appropriate size for the number of pieces that you plan to play with. I suggest starting with 8-9 holes, four rows of three per row. If the kids become bored with their set You can also add more! To make sure that all shapes are matched You'll need a variety of sizes! Cut and Drill Shapes After that, you must cut the shapes. They should be roughly similar in size to the puzzle board. This will stop the pieces from moving because of differences in size. This also reduces frustration for children who are frustrated by fighting over the same shape. If you're using multiple colors, the pieces don't need to be identical across rows. They can also differ in the height of each piece. The shapes should be attached to the board The majority of puzzle boards come with an exclusive glue was used to make them and, so long as you can use safely on wood and doesn't harm your pets or children (spray paint would be pretty awful! There are numerous glues that can be found at hardware stores. Apply multiple coats of glue on each piece until the shapes are slackened in each hole. If you are applying glue safe for kids, let dry completely before moving on. Attach the Jigs It's a great opportunity to find out who has their favorite tool! Attach the jig pieces to their jigsaw puzzle board. Use an adhesive that is strong so that it doesn't become too heavy. The ideal shape is large and bold, but not too small. There are four types of jigs to choose from: fence, motor, sound block, and battery-operated sinewave generator. Fence jigs are made of pieces that are coated an adhesive with a pressure-sensitive feature on the other side. They will automatically keep shapes in place as they move, so you don't need to press them on top of the previously formed shape. They will simply remain where they are! Finish it After drying after letting it dry, your robot jig will be ready to be assembled! After gluing all the pieces, you can glue them together. After that, connect the power source (battery), and attach the soundblock to the motor. It is important to ensure that there aren't wires visible in any of the pieces. This could cause problems later. Conclusion We hope that you enjoyed this post and we'd love to hear your feedback. Leave a comment below or reach us directly through our Facebook page.
