A Euclid Puzzle

Our timberframe company, Euclid, is building all the components of our timberframe at their shop in Charleston, Utah. They number the components and assemble them in the shop. After some minor fine tuning, they disassemble and send the puzzle to the job site where it is reassembled. Posted by Picasa
