3D Put Together puzzles can be described as those puzzles which need to be assembled to make a 3D shape but they are not interlocking puzzles. In other words 3d wooden puzzles do not lock together so that they cannot be picked up as a single shape when completed. Box packing puzzles, cube puzzles and other assembly puzzles and also some pattern matching puzzles generally come into this category. In this category you will find Robin Turner's wooden puzzle sculptures. Truly Puzzle Art; they are individually crafted wooden puzzles depicting Australian icons such as Ayer's Rock and the Devil's Marbles.
