jigsaw puzzle
Tabletop assembly challenge
A jigsaw puzzle is a picture mounted on cardboard or wood, cut into interlocking pieces that must be reassembled.
The pieces have irregular shapes designed to fit together only one way.
Jigsaw puzzles range from simple children's versions with a dozen pieces to complex ones with thousands.
Figuratively, a jigsaw puzzle is any problem requiring assembly of disparate parts: Investigators pieced together the jigsaw puzzle of evidence.
