#40320 Disney jigsaw

[unashamedly-enthusiastic]

Months ago I checked how long I actually spend on this app, and i was like, girl, that is not a healthy number

Let's set a 'go touch grass' lock out, but also, let's not be hasty here, let's set it for 4.5hrs that's pretty much a second shift at that point, who is gonna spend THAT LONG on this app?

In good news though, it works!?

I sat down with wine and snacks and have made progress on the long long neglected giant jigsaw!!

Just clicked thru the whole jigsaw saga and that was riveting! How are you storing them while they are in progress?

Little old ladies were right! jigsaws ARE fun!

After the difficulty I had with my 5000 piece jigsaw on carpet (not recommended) I decided to get some foam boards and tape them together to make a puzzle board

Each panel is 1m x 1.5m ish, so a the competed panels are stacked neatly on their boards, the in long in progress one is on top and all the sorted pieces are in lots and lots of tubs

Which is just as well because about a year after I started it I moved house and I cannot imagine the horror of moving 18,000+ completed pieces if they're weren't already packed up like that

Giant Jigsaw Puzzle Update

Friends, I bring you my wild misfortunes, for woe there are many

For the last month I have been struggling through dumbo, a grey elephant sitting in a grey bucket in blue/grey water, it has been a slog

I came home today and all of my progress is all crumpled up!

This is unfortunate, but i am building it on the floor in a house with a dog and a toddler, these things happen, we can rebuild!

But why is it crumpled?

Did Douglas get zoomies and run through it? No. No he did not

Douglas was not feeling well and got the pre-poop spinnies

Ive cleaned up what I can so far but it's across TWO panels, it's in the 🤮 crevices 🤮 and the jigsaw has become 'water' logged where it's.. absorbed

I tried to take it apart to clean between but the soggy pieces are all swollen risking deforming, and the illustration Is starting to rub off

I'll wait til it dries hoping it will hold enough of the shape and see how bad the staining is

The only other options are

asking ravensburger for 2 new full 5000 piece bags and re-doing these two horror panels

putting a very odd request into the guy that makes replacement pieces for lost jigsaw pieces

At least Douglas is feeling much better

First / Previous / Next

[unashamedly-enthusiastic]

24,190 completed 16,130 to go!

we are once again missing a piece but the last two turned up so I remain optimistic

I took the opportunity to put the first 4 panels together I have the next two on the bottom row but not the space to attach them together!

The giant jigsaw saga

Beginning / previous /next

I'm back at my silly little jigsaw and this panel is Dumbo

I watched it once as a child "ha ha elephant can fly" and once in my 20s "ohmygod he's just a baby, mum can't protect him, his community rejects him, he's exploited and lost and scared and he's just a baby"

I'm only looking at the tiny little film stills just now and I already know I couldn't handle it now I have a child of my own, genuinely in danger of having a little sob over some jigsaw pieces of a cartoon elephant

[unashamedly-enthusiastic]

Okay, yes, we are now at a total of 3 missing pieces but I'm not even mad

My toddler and dog, neither of whom were even conceived when I started this panel, have been 'helping' and there was a moment pieces were dropped outside when we moved house 2 years ago. 2 missing pieces is a success

20,157 pieces completed / 20,160 to goooo

It took 1 month to complete the little mermaid and 2yrs 5m to complete beauty and the beast, let's aim for something in the middle got the next one

The giant jigsaw epic

The beginning / previous / next

[unashamedly-enthusiastic]

40% complete 🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉

This panel took less than a month! I don't know if that means it was easier or I'm getting better, either way that's

17,280 pieces done, 25,920 to gooooo

Beauty and the beast next! I'm very excited

The beginning - Previous update

This evil evil puzzle of 5 shades of blue is finally (almost) complete

One piece is missing, but given I started it in May and picked it up and put it away twice because it was SO HARD, I'm sure it'll turn up somewhere

On the plus side, I'd already rearranged the living room to look for the piece, so I took the opportunity to slot the panels together

It is SO BIG

I doubt I'll complete another panel before I need the space for the Christmas tree, so I've stacked them away for now

We'll see how long that lasts

The beginning - Previous update - Next update

[unashamedly-enthusiastic]

Good news! The disney jigsaw is now 20% complete!

8,064 pieces assembled, only 32,256 to go

If you party this hard, you've got to accept the risk of getting these dangerous injuries
