I'm greatful you are updating every month or so, how ever long it takes you we will be here to see your progress, I'm enjoying this series 😁👍
@newsgiirl, thanks for watching and for the support.
Ideas for additional sorting categories may come once you really dive into assembly. Looks awesome so far! Sorting is the hardest part.
@cilibrasi1040, thanks for watching, yes, sorting is the hardest part. It started off easy and by the end I was making up category's to separate pieces into.
😂 Just watched part 1 and then noticed part 2 is out already. Love your videos. Keep going, have fun and glad to hear there will be a monthly update. 😊
Hi again Louise, thanks for watching and for the kind words.
Love seeing the border come together! Someone beautiful and talented must have helped with that
HA!!!!!!!! We'll see how you do tomorrow with 21 cardboards of sky pieces.
Thank you so much for filming your journey with this massive puzzle! Your inspiring😊! Keep us updated!
Hi Kevinlang12, thanks for the comment.
I watch Karen puzzles too😊
Hi jessicaostrom8460, I think watching Karen is a puzzling requirement, it's in the rulebook somewhere.
Thank you for the update. I Love to see how you sorting your pieces.
Greetings from Germany 😊
@jubelgenuss8058, greetings from Pennsylvania. I did sort mostly by color but did pick some things out like the Golden Gate Bridge and Effel Tower.
Absolutely amazing, definitely looking forward to the progress, also just in awe at that massive fantastic table/stand to do it on!
Hi tonyjames3842, thanks for the comment. I and Home Depot thank you for the compliment on the table.
This is awesome! I mean, wow. This is actually my dream puzzle, but I don’t have the time, room and friends like you have. Maybe I will get there. For now I am so happy that you are sharing the process and progress. Thank you. 🤞
@tinkerbellarocks Hi, thanks for watching, This was my favorite of the big puzzles also.
Thank you for the update, you all are doing an amazing job with sorting and already putting things together. Looking forward for the next update.
Hi again Vinetina, thanks for watching and hopefully the sorting will be finished by next time.
Just found this a year later. I just started the Educa Life puzzle (24k) about 2 weeks ago and I decided I would post videos on it, too. I have never done anything larger than 3000 pcs until now. I'm not a fast puzzler to begin with but I'm starting to see some progress. Looking forward to watching this series.
@gailivey2015 Hi, I just watched your video, I am looking forward to your future videos, john
Love your video and I loved that you explain your organizational approach - I was so curious! Looking forward to the next progress update :)
@leakovacs6306 thanks for watching
Thank you for doing this I am enjoying every minute.
@rosa733 Thanks so much for watching.
Impressive puzzle and nice job sorting. What a great puzzle table too
Hi MissAllyKat3, thank you for the comment. I've found that sorting starts out fun and gets less fun as it goes on, but hopefully I'll be done in a few days. I and Home Depot thank you for the compliment on the table.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 lots of progress already!
Thanks Candace, looking forward to some Pringle family help.
Great progress, looking forward to future updates!
@assemblingadventures, thanks for watching.
That's amazing! Good luck!
@TheHungryBookster. thank you and thanks for watching.
Thanks for the update! Looking forward to the monthly updates.
Thanks or coming over to help, come over any time. "come on in, the water's fine" (quote from the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou?")
So awesome!! 🧩🧩☺️
Hi @Addicted2Puzzles, I spent the last 3 months watching you do the 60,000 piece puzzle. Doing 1,000 pieces a day for 60 days was quite a challenge. I thought at the beginning that your son was right but you proved us both wrong. I didn't know that you had this puzzle, I'll be watching for it. If you find yourself on the other side of the country, stop in, I could use some big puzzle tips. I don't mind people doing puzzles in sections, I just wanted to try it this way and I don't have a time limit and I'll have some help also. I don't know how real youtubers like yourself do it, I'm a nervous wreck every time I'm in front of the camera. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@puzzlemethis. I think you're process is spot on. 👌
Just watched part one and two. And it's March. So. I'm looking forward to a new video in a few days. I will subscribe. Good luck. This is fun!!
@kathylynn1375, thanks for watching. Editing is so hard and takes me so long, I don't know how real CZcamsrs do it all the time.
You go guy!!!
Hi jessicaostrom8460, thanks for the comment.
Monthly updates are great. 200+ hours of work already and many to come... I am very optimistic that you and your team of friends will keep up the good spirit. Your task is monumental!
I myself have just started to upload some small speed puzzling videos - only of 500 piece ones. :-) And I would surely do those gigantic puzzles in their separate bag sections - but probably mixing 2 bags together if the first bag felt fine and I got into a bold mood. :-)
@logic_master_steve thanks for watching, Puzzling is hard enough, speed puzzling is a whole other level.
Glad your updating more. I want to do a large puzzle when I retire.....mu biggest is 3000 of a lighthouse. I put all mine on posterboard and glue them with mod podge and it works great as I won't do a puzzle and break it up. So I have many 1000 pc puzzles in a stack in my finished basement. So.e I give away and most I keep or hang up. Lol
BEST OF LUCK WITH THE EDUCA PROJECT. LOOK FWD TO YOUR UPDATES.
@jeancarroccino8574, thanks for watching. After retirement is a great time to do a big puzzle. So far I have averaged 34 hours a week on it. All your 1000 piece puzzles and your 3000 piece light house puzzle must keep you very busy, especially while working.
I will definitely ne following you on this journey.
@puzzlingin2worlds, thanks for watching.
I Love Puzzle Updates!
Hi TheApplesauce1992, thanks for the comment.
thank you for the update; I love watching other people puzzling; because I always learn something new. Did you know that educa puzzle pieces have a direction ? If you pick a piece (skinny -narrow) you might notice it goes in vertical of horizontal. all of them will face in that direction for the entire puzzle . It might help.
Hi again Emilie, thanks I did not know that. I will start paying attention to that. I hope the Life puzzle is coming together nicely for you. It looks like a lot of fun with all the bright colors. It might be tricky figuring out which pieces are hot air balloons, sailboat sails and fish, they are all so colorful.
😯😯
You are my new superhero.
@evareiss9112 Thanks, I'll need to get a cape.
Thank you so much for sharing your puzzle life and experience with us, my friend! I am pretty impressed about your activity. From today on you have one more fan. I'm from Austria and your big table seems very familiar to me. :)) In 2014 I did the 33600 Educa and I had a similar table of a length of 6 metres by 170cms over all the length of my living-room. I created it in upper 85 and lower 85cms to be able to stand and play between them, and to push them together if I needed more space in my room. But I did not dare to mix all bags! :D Your way is incredible! I opened all bags, sorted many days long all the 33600pcs, but I had boxes called like "green - bag 1" and so on. So I could work on all parts together, could let grow the entire puzzle on every place of the whole 6 metres together, but I had not mixed green parts of the different bags. What you are doing here is fantastic, and I wish you all the best and send you all my positive energy to never stop playing on it for too many days in a row, to never lose your goal and your fun on it, and to finish it in the time of your goal. - I created an excel program for my big puzzle experiences, where I can enter day by day my assembled pieces. And this program counts all my assembled pieces, shows me always the percentage I have already mastered, and a projection when I will finish, continuing by this way. If you want, I would feel happy to gift you a copy of my program. I always compare such a big puzzle with my ex-hobby, running marathons. A marathon-racer also wants to know on which km he is running currently on his long way. And it's also positive to know where you are standing on your current long way! What you are doing is a marathon for your mental power. Often we play many hours on such a puzzle, and especially on such big puzzles we see no progress after 8 hours of puzzling. But this program calms you and tells you, that you mastered already (f.ex.) 42% and although you can not see a real progress today after 8 hours on that gigantic table, you mastered only today (f.ex.) great 0.5%... So it is good for your mental power to keep going forward, also on difficult parts you for sure will have to come through. If you want a copy, just tell me here and we will find a way to mail you a copy.
Good luck and enjoy every single piece! 🧩🧩🧩
@inti8467, thanks for watching. The 33,600 wildlife puzzle looks hard, all that green color and so many animals. That big table sounds great. We haven't been keeping track of pieces but if we keep plugging away we'll get it done.
@@puzzlemethis. okay, it was only a suggestion. 😉 I have a little manual piece counter with a ring on it. I am right handed. So I play with my right hand, and that piece counter is on my middle finger in the left hand. And everytime I find a piece, it makes clac-clac-clac… 😁
Have a lot of fun with your gigantic puzzle! I enjoy watching your videos and progress.
I'm amazed. Never have seen anything like this before. I've subscribed to keep up to date with your progress. I'm a little nervous about you losing pieces. Hope you have a thorough clean up crew that watches for pieces that may have fallen onto the floor.
@walkmoreworryless4981, thanks for watching. We do look over the floor every so often just to check. When wearing long sleeves they get dragged on the floor pretty often.
Glad you have the time to do this. I just think sorting by colors is going to be a lot more work putting things together than if you kept it like the others (Eiffel Tower, London Eye, signs, roads, mountain, taxi cab, etc.).
@waynebennett745, You are probably right, Some things were easy to pick out but some pieces I couldn't tell what they were. The Eiffel Tower's observation decks for example didn't look like normal Eiffel Tower girders.
I wish I could be with you right now and puzzle with you. I love jigsaw puzzles. Many greetings from Germany. 🤗
Hi manuela608, thanks for the comment and greetings from Pennsylvania.
Im here for you
@GDFB100, thanks for watching.
I just recently finished Educa 2000. Wish you could do some time lapse. Great job!
Hi vickylin5126, congratulations on the Educa puzzle. I'm trying to figure out the video/editing thing and hopefully can do some time-lapse in the future
I think that this puzzle, that is, if it was commercially available, would be even bigger than the 40,320 piece puzzle that Ravensberger has as the largest commercially available puzzle in the world.
good video again :) i dont think i can wait so long between your video updates :O it would be very nice to see a timelapse of the entire thing. i dont know if you have an extra camera that could be set up at the end of the table. when i build my puzzles i always count how many card boards i have left. i sort by shape and colors. and as i go along i free up space on the boards, then i can put more pieces on the same board. it tells me im getting closer to the finish line :) so i would be interested in knowing how many boards you started with and how many you emptied :)
@katrinboas, it seems like the videos come around fast for me. I tried a test of a 2 hour time-lapse from as high as I could get at the end of the table but all I could really see were people walking around and looking down at the table, not really any pieces being put together. I started with 90 cardboards that hold between 350 and 400 pieces each, and a few of them I cut in half for smaller things. I cleaned off 3 of them and then sorted out some buildings on them. I do have 3 cardboards empty now, but I would have a few more if I moved some pieces around. I too look forward to empty cardboards.
I have this puzzle too, with many others. I have no idea when I will get to it. Still, I would not dare to mix the bags. Would never have the time to so either way.
@PuzzleWacko, thanks for watching, I had the puzzle for 8 months before I got the space cleared out and having it and not being able to start on it was hard.
What a gigantic task you’ve taken on
@inge6280, thanks for watching, Yes, I don't think it has really sunk in yet. It is still a lot of fun and I look forward to working on it. Mom has everyone guess how long it will take and the range is from one year to 3 years.
❤ puzzle 🧩
@user-td6kv5ot2b Hi, thanks for watching.

This is amazing. I don't know if I have the space to do what you are doing. How many pieces of cardboard do you actually have.
@puzzlingin2worlds, Thanks for watching, I have 90 pieces of cardboard, 15X32 inches. Each cardboard holds between 350 and 400 pieces depending on how close I put the pieces. I think 120 cardboards would easily hold the whole puzzle. I did cut some shorter for things that didn't need a whole one.
Why the "puzzled" look on your face, John? (Sorry, but I couldn't resist) 🙂
@randydrais4428, Hi Randy, my sister would tell you that that is my normal look. She has been over a couple times, I'll tell her to bring you along next time,
