jig saw
Interlocking piece puzzle
A jigsaw is a power tool with a thin blade that moves rapidly up and down, used for cutting curves and intricate shapes in wood or other materials.
Also spelled as two words.
A jigsaw puzzle is a picture cut into interlocking pieces to be reassembled; the name comes from the tool once used to cut them.
Figuratively, a jigsaw describes anything composed of disparate pieces that fit together: The investigation was a jigsaw of witness accounts and forensic evidence.
