Will you frame it, keep it or move it on?

I feel that doing puzzles that size, I'd want to keep it

I’ll keep it because it was enjoyable to do. I must move on a heap of my other puzzles I have no interest in doing again though.

That's awesome. I can't recall details but I'm pretty sure our equivalent Ravensburger one took several months. Well done!

Working today and snaffled this when it was returned. The picture is stunning. Sometimes working in a public library is awesome.

Did Not Like

Struggled a bit with this one in terms of "false fits" along the edge, the sky and water sections

There was sections of the edge (more so the sky area) that I redid 3 or 4 times while putting it together and then I had to redo again when trying to put the internal parts together



It's done and now time to move on

Started the Dracula puzzle. Misi thinks she should be framed.

Started my 4000 piece Naval battle puzzle. This is a lot better quality than the solar system one. Pieces are much better quality a bit thicker. Puzzle is split in three bags and each does a third which is making it easier to do. I think as a finished piece it would be a great one to get framed as it already looks good.

The sky on my puzzle is doing my head in, only got about 10 pieces done today. I want to start the next section but know I should finish this bit first.

If doesn't exactly look like a full size table, rather one you'd still need to sit on the floor to use

For cheaper, you can get this bigger option from Amazon - and I'm pretty sure there's even cheaper options at roughly this size




Then there's this option which looks more of a standard height

Some progress on Dracula. It's quite difficult but I will finish it.

Just finished this one. 1500 Piece Ravensburger Sunday Afternoon on the Island of Grand Jatte by Georges Seurat.



Proved to be much trickier than expected. The subtle colour differences messed with my head . Strangely, for a Ravensburger, it didn't really come up to scratch quality wise - quite a few bent pieces and de-lamination issues. We'd recently done their Supertrees one using the same 1500 piece grid and it didn't have these issues.

Nice puzzle though.

I've been putting my first week of redundancy to good use. I might even finish a 1000-piece puzzle for the first time at this rate!



(Just out of shot is a massive pile of neglected clean clothing that needs to be folded haha)

This one was a little gem - a 1000 piece Galison I found at Lincraft for $10(!). Very pleasantly surprised - an easy recommendation for any anglophiles out there:

Finished Dracula. Very challenging but I enjoyed it.

Here is a better picture of the Dracula jigsaw.

I understand the first 2 instructions.

I understand the first 2 instructions.

The third instruction is definitely subjective

4: Remove puzzle dust before commencing.

About 2 nights ago I finished sorting a 1500 piece puzzle and there's like a tablespoon of puzzle dust in the bottom

I was doing my best towards the end of sorting to try and only pull out a couple of pieces at a time as they were just covered in dust

Just ordered the Ravensburger "Six Portals" from amazon UK (via amazon AU) which looks stunning. I'm hoping that despite the piece count the fact that it's in six (reasonably) distinct sections (and two inner bags) might help. Currently a small discount for BF too.
