One day,back when the 'net was young,I did a search for "tangrams". I couldn't find what I wanted, which was a good collection of figures. Hmmm...! What a perfect opportunity for a beginning web page builder with an interest in tangrams ... :-)

I hope you enjoy these Tangram puzzles, they have entertained me many times, places and ways. If you have a silhouette to contribute, new site, a question or have just been entertained, please, email me. Thanks to all the people who have already sent me figures to add to the collection.

Holy cow! Who would have thought? I made it into the newspaper, on to TV and ended up helping put together two Tangram puzzle packages, one for Carlton Books, England, another for Sterling Books, USA. Thanks for all the kind comments and interesting exchanges from those people who have written me. Unexpected rewards for playing around with this site.

Finally, a few credits are due. If I missed anyone, email me and it will be fixed.

To heck with numbers,
You are an Important visitor here.
