I need somebody's expert advice here.
I have a request to make some puzzles for toddlers. Basic shapes and names. The problem I am having is the kerf is too narrow and the shapes are too tight to fit into the base, making it impossible for the toddlers to use them.
I am trying to find a way to map the pieces to do a double vector cut so that they have a few thousands of an inch gap so they slide into place easier.
I have also found out I need to make the pieces symmetrical so they can go in place no matter what direction they try to insert it.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this short of having to sand each piece down?
