Hello, I am currently building a large container puzzle. I would like to show a picture of what I have so far. After many long hours, I have three pieces.  Mind you that the pieces are not finished for paint yet. So far I have only assembled the three pieces. I still have sanding, cleaning, and painting to do. Do you like it so far? The pieces in the background are my stencils that I made as "keys" for the puzzle. I should have this done in about 5 days. I will update it everyday with a picture until it is done. Chris EDIT: FINISHED PICTURES BELOW!

Very nice. If you made your puzzles in black, I would give you a hug.

Getting there. I decided to round the corners because the large center pieces caught here and there. I should have it done by Monday! It will be black!

Nice one Chris. Containers can be a real pain with those sharp angles.

Gotta add this to my puzzle to-do list.
