Abstract
A three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle comprising a base, a post fixedly secured to and emanating upwardly from the base, a first group of pieces, where each piece in the first group has a through-bore to enable stacking about the post and also has at least one radially extending projection in a shape of a trapezoidal solid, and a second group of pieces, where each piece in the second group has at least one radially extending projection in the shape of a trapezoidal solid. The first and second groups of pieces are operatively arranged to stack and interlock with one another to form a cylindrically shaped structure.

A three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, comprising:
- a base;
- a post fixedly secured to and emanating upwardly from said base;
- a first group of pieces, each of said pieces in said first group having a through-bore therein to enable stacking about said post and also having at least one radially extending projection in a shape of a trapezoidal solid, each of said pieces in said first group further including a top surface and a bottom surface, each of which is substantially planar;
- and,
- a second group of pieces, each of said pieces in said second group having at least one radially extending projection in the shape of a trapezoidal solid;
- wherein said first and second groups of pieces are operatively arranged to stack with one another to form a cylindrically shaped structure.
A three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, comprising:
- a base;
- a post fixedly secured to and emanating upwardly from said base;
- a first group of pieces consisting of two pieces each having a through-bore therein to enable stacking about said post and also having at least one radially extending projection in a shape of a trapezoidal solid and a top surface and a bottom surface which are substantially planar;
- and,
- a second group of pieces, each of said pieces in said second group of pieces having at least one radially extending projection in the shape of a trapezoidal solid;
- wherein said two pieces of said first group of pieces and said second group of pieces are operatively arranged to stack with one another to form a cylindrically shaped structure.
A three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, comprising:
- a base;
- a post fixedly secured to and emanating upwardly from said base;
- a first group of pieces consisting of three pieces each having a through-bore therein to enable stacking about said post and also having at least one radially extending projection in a shape of a trapezoidal solid and a top surface and a bottom surface which are substantially planar;
- and,
- a second group of pieces, each of said pieces in said second group of pieces having at least one radially extending projection in the shape of a trapezoidal solid;
- wherein said first group of pieces and said second group of pieces are operatively arranged to stack with one another to form a cylindrically shaped structure.
A three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, comprising:
- a base;
- a post fixedly secured to and emanating upwardly from said base;
- a first group of pieces consisting of four pieces each having a through-bore therein to enable stacking about said post and also having at least one radially extending projection in a shape of a trapezoidal solid and a top surface and a bottom surface which are substantially planar;
- and,
- a second group of pieces, each of said pieces in said second group of pieces having at least one radially extending projection in the shape of a trapezoidal solid;
- wherein said first group of pieces and said second group of pieces are operatively arranged to stack with one another to form a cylindrically shaped structure.
A three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, comprising:
- a base;
- a post fixedly secured to and emanating upwardly from said base;
- a first group of pieces consisting of five pieces each having a through-bore therein to enable stacking about said post and also having at least one radially extending projection in a shape of a trapezoidal solid and a top surface and a bottom surface which are substantially planar;
- and,
- a second group of pieces, each of said pieces in said second group of pieces having at least one radially extending projection in the shape of a trapezoidal solid;
- wherein said first group of pieces and said second group of pieces are operatively arranged to stack with one another to form a cylindrically shaped structure.
