On this page, you can send me pics you took, pics of you, your loved ones, your dog, your motorcycle, a pic you took 6 years ago in Italy, a painting you did...whatever you want, basically. You send me the pic and I will send you a hand-cut, real wooden jigsaw puzzle that will more than likely still be around a 100 years from now.
I am still working on this page; it will become less clunky and easier to use as time progresses.
First, you will need to email me your pic (and the title):
Rick@RikuWorkshops.com
also, I can be reached directly via text or call at 860 753 1493.
Next, If you know the size, select it from the choices offered on this page. I will then contact you to let you know I am working on your puzzle and a completion date, usually 10 days from payment. Light editing is expected, but if I have to do any heavy (i.e., time-consuming) editing to the pic, it may incur an additional charge, usually no more than $15 or $20.
The rate for a custom puzzle is a very easy to calculate .50c per square inch.
For example, if you choose a:
10x15" puzzle, 10x15" = 150 sq. inches, x .50c = $75.
10x14" puzzle, 10x14" = 140 sq. inches, x .50c - $60.
and so on.
All custom puzzles are constructed using 1/4" cabinet grade plywood, such as Poplar or Birch. If you want Maple, just ask. it's a little thinner and it costs a little more, not too much. Piece count is generally 2 - 2.25 pc. per sq. inch.
$6.00 is for the postage fees. And that's it!
