 The Pieces




Note:   According to the printed instruction sheet that came with this puzzle, the following solution is correct .   You will find, however, that as you progress through it, a lot of the pieces do not lie perfectly flat on top of one another .

Don't give this a second thought .

Perhaps the manufacturer was not overly concerned with this fact, as much as they were with getting the overall aesthetic symmetry looking good; depending, of course, on what they had to work with in the way of injection molds to form the pieces .

If anyone out there knows the real, inside story, please give me a buss, as this would be greatly appreciated .
