T-Rex + Puzzle = Perfect

A t-Rex made on the laser cutter at work. the wood is like a particle board. How cool is this thing?? I saw it in the frame shop yesterday and had to have it. I knew Emily would loooove it.

It's a puzzle.

You can paint the board first then have the laser cutter cut the pieces. I couldn't wait.
The pieces are really meant to be glued together so it's more of a model than puzzle (the pieces are not tight) but Emily LOVES puzzles. She can put a 100+ piece puzzle together lickety split.





Holding the head. It slides off easy and on it's own sometimes because it's meant to be glued. I don't want to glue it till Emily loses interest. For now she has taken it apart and put it back together several times since last night. I have to help with the first 3 parts but then she does the rest. Mary A: I did have to get the directions off the Internet. After staring at it for a couple of minutes, I asked myself why not just get the directions? I'm not about the challenge. I want the results!

the head dismantled and a vertebrae.

I have no idea if we'll sell these in the store but we should! A kit with the instructions.
Cory showed me a bunch of stuff that can be cut out. Really cool stuff! One thing that was already cut and assembled int eh frame shop was the Eiffel Tower. It's huge!!
Ava refuses to wear clothes. Everything is "stuck" and needs to be removed pronto.

Emily just learned the thumbs up sign. It's hilarious.

I knew you would want one! I had to adjust it for 3mm board so that's why it's a little loose. The original pattern was for like 8mm board or something, but the original pattern was as high as the arm of a sofa! Huge! If I do more work on it I can probably get it tighter.....

There is a mammoth, gorilla, and giraffe. But the others don't have as many pieces. These are freebies from the Epilog website, so I don't know if we can sell them or not. Cory will have to ask.

Ava is so cute! Do her clothes get stuck when she's in public? Haha!

The first and last pictures of Emily are hilarious.

Ava is just like Nicolas, he's still always chillin in his undies. Those two are so much alike.

Nicolas just saw the picture of Ava and said "she naked like me". Now he won't stop talking about how Emily has the same space ship. And now he must play with his =)

Awesome dino puzzle! I know I've seen those somewhere before... I must go see the Eiffel tower one though!
Emily's so much better at puzzles than I am! But, it's good that she does so well at them. ::thumbs up at Em!:: ;)
LOL @ Ava and her no clothes phase- how ironic is that when you make such cute stuff for them to wear all the time. She'll soon grow out of the phase... but,maybe not soon enough for you though. :)
