I'm really enjoying these puzzle updates! Thank you for the shoutout!! ☺️🧩 I appreciate you watching my videos! I have the 24,000 piece Life puzzle hanging on my living room wall. I know there is a repeating pattern in the pieces, so I counted them. Every 37 pieces in the row by 27 pieces in the column is the grid, I guess you could call it. Those pieces in that grid will repeat throughout the entire puzzle. I've seen this with the large Ravensburger pieces as well. So you have to really pay attention to the frame pieces in this one since the colors are alike throughout the entire puzzle. I do wish I had a cool setup like this to mix a really big one! But in the meantime, I'll just be puzzling in sections! 🤗 You make me want to start one of my big Ravensburger ones! I'm not set up for 6000-piece sections at the moment, so this one will have to wait a bit! Happy Puzzling!! 🧩☺️
@Addicted2Puzzles Hi Judy, thank you and you are welcome. I meant what I said about you and the other TH-cam puzzlers that I mentioned being the inspiration for me to do a puzzle, and especially a big one. Thanks for counting the grid pieces, I'm sure that will be a real help, especially for the sky pieces. I looked back through your video's to see if you had one of you hanging the Life puzzle on the wall, but didn't see one. That had to be quite a project and would be an interesting video to see.
@Puzzle Me This Thanks and you're welcome too! ☺️ I did the Life puzzle in 2016 and stared my TH-cam channel after it was hung in 2017. All I have are some pictures. I wish I started my TH-cam channel earlier on when I was working on the Life puzzle. I agree, it would've made for a great video! Have fun and looking forward to the next update! 🧩☺️
So much to admire in this video: Your shout-out to other youtubers, your enthusiasm for the project, your community of friends and family participating. What an undertaking!!! I subscribed to make sure i didn't miss your updates. Keep it up, my friend !
What a sense of family and community, the best reason to work together on this puzzle. I love that your Mom and Dad are helping out, what a blessing. Keep inspiring.
Ok… Me retracto de mi comentario anterior porque es muy impresionante todo lo que se tiene que hacer para poder armar un puzzle de esas dimensiones … es muy impresionante… Felicidades!!!
Loving this!! Awesome that this is bringing your friends and family together. Sounds like you are having a great time with it. The fact that you said you may use your table to do another enormous puzzle after this is something only a hard core puzzler would say. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing!!
just watched all 3 videos again on this again, just outstanding all around! from the amazing table , to the epic mixing of the pieces in part 1 . excellent progress so far! all my best!!!
@tonyjames3842, thanks, I watched some youtubers mix sections or whole puzzles together and for some reason it was oddly satisfying, so that gave me the idea to do a mixing video (and I wanted witnesses to prove that I actually mixed it all together).
I ve really enjoyed watching these videos and seeing your progress on the puzzle and it's nice to see someone whose actually doing the whole puzzle rather than doing it as 6000 pieces,which is what a lot of the you tubers are doing and I agree with what you say its not the same thing. Love the set up as well and I m enjoying the style and delivery of the videos. Look forward to seeing more. 😊
Great progress. I admire your courage doing the entire puzzle at once. I did the Life puzzle (24,000 piece), but 6000 at a time. There is a line of wider pieces in the middle of each section. Have fun. Looking forward to the next update
@janspearman9310, the Life puzzle looks like fun, so many brightly colored pieces. Thanks for the tip, I think it will be really useful when doing the sky
@TheHungryBookster, thanks for watching. Sorting for me feels like I'm not making much progress. Some people don't sort, but for me it seems necessary, and I felt so good when I was done.
I’ve been following your videos. Very nice to watch. I have been learning along the way which is great! Sorting is the hardest part for me and I got many tips and ideas from your video. Thank you for that… keep going! :)
@mariaeugeniavictoria, thanks for watching. Sorting is the hardest part for me too. I shouldn't say that it is hard, but it seems like a lot of time and work and feels like no progress. I sure was glad when I was done. I think everyone sorts differently depending on what works for them, hopefully some of the things I did will work for you too.
It's great that you do this with your family,! Take into account that even though the interesting part is that you mixed the bags together, you are not doing this alone, so it's not like you are doing it as a 42K by yourself. I'm still looking for that YT-er that has the space to mix all the bags and that does it by him/herself. However, please know your video is fun!!
@bettyc.6280, Here are 2 to get you started: th-cam.com/video/dj0Yl_50q4E/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AndreF th-cam.com/video/uTk6ySmyFYQ/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=PuzzleMomma
Wow, I am impressed with your progress and with your amount of systematic and strategic planning - but also overwhelmed by the sheer size of the project. Love that it is a family-and-friend project. Since you noticed a repeating pattern in sections 4 and 6 I would almost bet to see that repetition in section 2 also. But note that I do not own one of these mega puzzles, I am just guessing. Did you notice some repeating pattern for sections 3 and 5 as well? If so, that might help with repairing your border problem in section 1. But repeating patterns could be arranged in many ways. The top right corner of the puzzle could be cut identical to the lower left corner of the puzzle (i.e. a 180 degree rotational repetition within the whole puzzle or within a section). You will surely find out during your puzzling! Have fun!
@logic_master_steve, thanks, I don't think that section 3 and 5 were the same, but I'll have to check again to make sure. I don't have a big enough part done yet to notice any patterns but I will be keeping an eye out for them.
You should watch Puzzle Wacko, a European man with a funny personality and lots of dry witty humor. He has a small channel like yours and certainly doesn’t get enough attention for his unique puzzles.
i would love to make a big puzzle, but i have 4 cats. two bengals and two ragdolls. so no chance. when i build 1000 or 3000 i put a card board og glass frame on top of the puzzle so they cant destroy my puzzle. hope the month goes fast. cant wait this long
It is coming together nicely. Can't hardly wait to get back to puzzling myself too... But I have to tell you have done the most tiring and boring part already...

@lauracraig6343 Hi and thanks for watching.
Thanks for video. I want to make the big puzzle.

@jubelgenuss8058 Thanks and thanks for watching.
good luck fam !
i watch nearly all of them
@jassminhope4723 Hi, Thanks for watching
Good job so far. I wanna do that when I retire in 3 yrs..... lol
@jeancarroccino8574, thanks for watching. Retirement is the best time to do a big puzzle. I have been averaging 34 hours a week on it so far.
It's great that you do this with your family,! Take into account that even though the interesting part is that you mixed the bags together, you are not doing this alone, so it's not like you are doing it as a 42K by yourself.

@bebespeaks7827, I remember that name, I think I saw his unboxing video of this puzzle, I'll watch some of his other video's and check him out.
3:00 - 4:00....does the video seem to go darker in random spots?
@waynebennett745, yeah, sorry about that, I will eventually find a camera that will stay in focus.
i would love to make a big puzzle, but i have 4 cats. two bengals and two ragdolls. so no chance. when i build 1000 or 3000 i put a card board og glass frame on top of the puzzle so they cant destroy my puzzle. hope the month goes fast. cant wait this long
@katrinboas, we have a cat and his name is "Trouble" but he is a really good cat and so far hasn't bothered with the puzzle.
It is coming together nicely. Can't hardly wait to get back to puzzling myself too... But I have to tell you have done the most tiring and boring part already...
@PuzzleWacko Hi again, yes the sorting took sooooo long, I'm glad that part is over.
Not gonna spoil the 60k puzzle 1k per day but it's huge and fills the driveway definetly ruined for me enjoying this series though
@jamieflitton3886 Hi, I said she completed the puzzle, I didn't say if she made her goal of doing 1,000 pieces per day for 60 days, john
