The Ultimate Jig for making A Wood star Puzzle (Escher Solid)

Enjoyed the video? You can support me here:   / shweka   Jig for making wood star puzzles, also known as Escher solid. It’s a cool small woodworking project, interesting challenge to solve, a beautiful object to have on the counter and a great present for any occasion. it is also a great way to use all your small scraps from previous projects. It’s not an easy project, though. the accuracy that is needed is very high. it took me 5 prototypes to get to the final jig design. each star is assembled from 6 identical pieces. I made around 50 wood-star puzzles, Using all types of hard wood like Purple heart, Wenge, Zebrano, Maple, Walnut, Cherry, and more. (i succeeded to sell only one on etsy, isn’t it ironic :) I made a 4 part video series about it, but this final chapter sums most of it. if you think you will have interests for getting the plans for this project – please let me know.
