We've made a start on this one!

This was a tough bugger to do...
Look at all that dark...

Notice it's a Christmas puzzle. We've run out of normal puzzles to do. A raid on the reopened charity shops is on the cards.

A like for finishing it - I hate Thomas Kinkade puzzles.

Another Christmas one done. Nice and easy this one.

It looked like we would have to carry on with the last of the festive puzzles but luckily my partner spotted a post on our local Facebay. Lo and behold, a good few more ready to be done. Including a couple of nice 2000 piecers.

This 2000 piece puzzle took us a little while to complete, but got there in the end.

I'm starting this one tonight.

Massive jigsaw fans here. We did 120 1000 piece puzzles last year, a 1500 and a 2000. We are up to 38 1000 piecers to date this year. We are well known In the charity shops around here for buying puzzles. once done we give back or swap with others on our local FB group.

Do you have an Eddington number for jigsaws?

Nice easy one after the 2000 jobbie

All done on this one.

And one more finished, this one was half completed in June but then put aside until a 2 person effort to finish this weekend.

A question, fellow Dissectologists..
Should they be completed in silence; with a quiet Brahms concerto playing in the background; or with some thrash metal whacked up to 11?

 

[CanucksTraveller]

I like silence! I rarely get it, but I like it.
Most often though there's a background noise of Strictly or similar tosh coming from the TV, and a never ending stream of consciousness monologue coming from my daughter.

This was a nice and easy one. Took two evenings.
Nice pic too. Very enjoyable.

Who do you use to jig your saws?

Well, I've been busy on a 1000 piece jigsaw. Claimed to be the smallest in the world.
Just 16.5 inches by 11.5 inches, or for the diehard remainers 420mm x 290mm.
1000 pieces each smaller than my thumbnail!

Don't know how many of you know these puzzles, but there are several in the series (although this is no longer in production so eBay rules!) of which the two best are either Machu Picchu or Matterhorn.
Some of you might be interested...
