It is. I've kinda been meaning to get into it as a low-effort artistic hobby. However you're more likely to find matching puzzles made the same year by the same company than if you try to use puzzles from different years or different manufacturers (yes, some manufacturers share stencils).
That's what I was thinking too, silly little art hobby. It makes sense, why would they retool for every design.
At least they could flip and rotate the puzzles so they would be different.
More effort and cost when these things are pressed through an automated factory setup.
"who's gonna be dumb enough to use pieces from different puzzles?"
Probably virtually no one until they saw a post like this 😂
