   (The pieces are not discrete shapes.)
The outer edge can be a rectangle or have rounded corners.

A Surrounding border can be added to frame the jigsaw.

Notch size is related to the averaged Jigsaw piece size.

Randomization creates irregularity for unique pieces.

Adjust Notch size and Randomization to avoid overlapping lines:
  - High values of randomization will cause overlapping lines
    on small notches.
  - Highly unbalanced grids (E.g. 9x2 with 0.5 notches) will
    create overlapping lines.
