The title pretty much says it all. Finished a pile of puzzles, so I figured I’d share them here. Not sure how to tie it into Do I Need to Use a Dragon?, but maybe just click on the link anyway. Still time to get the eBook for 99 cents.

James Bond Puzzle
I put the James Bond one at the end because this one was a near disaster. First, you can tell that there isn’t as big a variety of colors as one would hope. That meant it took a while to put together. Second, I had trouble getting wax paper under the puzzle. So, I tried to glue it without and get the paper under a little later before it stuck to the table. It had only been 10 minutes and parts got stuck. I was trying to get the puzzle free when it FELL OFF THE TABLE! Keep in mind that the glue is still drying and it kind of folding into itself and into chunks. I had to rush to get it separated before the pieces were permanently stuck together. Ended up getting a few large pieces kept together and put on the oaktag that you see since I had no time to pull fresh wax paper out. Took me another two weeks to put the puzzle back together with many pieces being warped. So, the puzzle doesn’t look as pretty as it did the first time.
Oh, I’m also annoyed that I had that bootleg Harry Potter puzzle in my closet for two years to find a piece was missing. Damn thing didn’t have a poster or clear picture either just like the Black Cauldron one. So, both were massive headaches.

I just finished a 500 piece puzzle and found out there were 501 pieces in the box. One was a duplicate. So now I feel a little bad for whoever got the box with 499 pieces.

I’ve had it where there are extra pieces, but they’re from different puzzles. Guess it happens sometimes since these things are cut up by machines.

Wow…so many puzzles, and they’re all huge! Congratulations. These days itty bitty digital puzzles are all I can manage, but back in the day I loved doing those 3D puzzles that were all the rage. Commiserations on the missing puzzle piece. Thank goodness it wasn’t one of the bits in the middle.

I never tried any 3D puzzles. Mostly because I don’t know where I would put them once I’m done. The flat ones are easier to glue, attach to a backing, and pile up in the basement. I think I’d rather a middle piece be missing. Having to put it together with an incomplete border drives me crazy.

Yeah, space is the problem with the 3D ones. I kept the model of a French castle for years until we had to downsize. Broke my heart to break it up into bits. That’s part of the reason I stick to digital jigsaw puzzles these days. 🙂

I fear that when it comes to my Lego sets. I manage to find places in my room so far. Almost at the point where I won’t have any room, so I’ll have to stop getting them.
