Our family has done 3 since this all started. We are doing a 1,000 piece now that is HARD. It is a BB8 puzzle that has different scenes in the background that make up the picture. I don't mind hard puzzles, but this one is just total BS. I've threatened to light it on fire on more than one occasion. Because all the little scenes don't really match up and the several pieces look like they go together, you need a magnifying glass to look at the box and see if the little background scenes match up to what you've put together.

I do the free ones in Microsoft Jigsaw in Windows 10. Easy because the pieces are already in the correct orientation.

I’ve been doing them too. I’m into hunting so I’ve been doing deer and outdoor ones. You can buy puzzle glue that smears on them and holds them together long term. They look pretty cool framed in the man cave

I've never done a puzzle but I feel like I want to start. Just to have something to pass some hours stuck at home. Any pro tips? Any go-to online puzzle sources or do most of you just buy them locally?

I saw an article just today about what's supposed to be the world's hardest series of jigsaw puzzles. They make them in different sizes but what they have in common is that they're printed on clear plastic.
Apparently that makes edge recognition even more difficult than the single color ones. Link |

I do the beads on sticky paper. 43 year old ex marine spending an hour a day pasting stupid little beads onto sticky paper. I've been doing it for months now. Basically, it's just a way to turn off my brain and decompress after a day at work or what not.
