Puzzles - Anyone Do Them

[waldedw]

The wife has a puzzle on the go pretty much all the time, if I'm bored I will sit down for a while and work on it, we just finished a 3,000 piece, took us a long, long time, the colors meshed so much it made me cross eyed.

I hear you on the vision problem. I wouldn't last long on one that blends the similar colours like that.

I have a few motorcycle puzzles that I did years ago. I disassembled them in big pieces so I could reassemble them later if I decided to frame them.

Has your wife ever framed some that she's completed? I've always wondered how that turns out. With gluing and all that.

Nope never tried to frame one, we just do them and pass them on usually to my sister as we trade back and forth, the wife volunteers 3 days a week at the Olive Tree store so gets them for a couple $$ when they are all done with them she donates them back to the store to be resold, this one measures 46 x 33

My father was crazy about puzzles in his younger years, he used to build them with the photo side down when he got bored. I guess now we have social media to kill time.

I don't do them much but when my Mom was still with us She would always have one on the go. We would usually end up huddled over a puzzle when we visited.
Before Covid the Library had a couple of tables with puzzles on the go, people would just come and go. You might see 2-3 people at a table, was a sort of meeting place.

For a while I would pick up a new puzzle from Cabela’s for my grandfather. About every month or so when I would come out to the farm. He really liked the wildlife ones.

Not that type of puzzle...but I play wordle, wordhurdle, quordle and dordle daily.
