    "Isn't it crazy how they named an entire state park after a drag queen?"
    I love you so much for this - when I saw the sign, Denali from Drag Race was my first thought, too. Now I finally get her name. TIL. 😀
    My new guess for your finishing time would be 74 hours and 35 minutes now
    I hope you get well soon! 🤧

    It may sound very harsh, but I am sooo glad to see you struggle! I have the same Puzzle and I failed doing it because I started with the edges and I couldn't figure out where each Piece goes. So I stopped trying and the Puzzle is waiting in the cupboard for years! Right now I don't have any space to do such a big puzzle, but I'm looking forward doing it in the future, using your "tips" during your videos! Thank you!

    That Alaska bit threw me off guard :D Sometimes taking a step back is great. It's needed. I often find myself thinking "I can do this!" but as time progresses I grow more frustrated and just can't see the pieces clearly. Taking a step back, focus on other things, it helps.

    My guess is 71 hours 42 minutes. Keep going, you can do it! That missing piece is giving me anxiety though! I’m new to puzzling, and there are always pieces I can’t find and am convinced are missing, but they always turn up in the end 😅

    • @SorwestChannel
      @SorwestChannel Před 10 měsíci +4

      By the end of the video I had a hunch it's not the only missing piece. One of the red squares is not complete yet, and there's like 4 spaces for red-looking pieces and I doubt there's that many hidden in that sky pile

  • @ej2u2
    @ej2u2 Před 10 měsíci +5

    I like using trays and laying pieces out in one layer. When I did your 3000 piece puzzle, I didn't have enough trays and didn't want to spend much money for more. I went to the dollar store and bought several cookie sheets for $1.25 each. Those worked like a charm.

  • @hollyfirefly1
    @hollyfirefly1 Před 10 měsíci +8

    My first guess was 49 hours. Yes I underestimated all that sky🥴my second guess is 67:21. Watching you tackle this puzzle inspired me to finally take out a few puzzles I’ve been putting off. Only 1000 each, but one was all birds and was larger than the table I was working on, used poster boards and thought of your over sized puzzle. “You can do it”😂🤣❤️

  • @ardenrenee3439
    @ardenrenee3439 Před 10 měsíci +30

    It would be really cool if you set this puzzle in resin and turned it into a table top. That way, you could keep it together and remember it as the first huge puzzle you did. And you'd have a dining table big enough for puzzling properly.

    Your dedication to puzzling is so impressive! I also like that you know when you require a break, and you blend life into your puzzling by going on family vacations, while still bringing your focus back to your puzzles. This puzzle is certainly quite the behemoth. It's significant that you would have done this once in a lifetime, yet to go through it a second time is all the much more impressive. I don't have a guess on your final time, but I do hope that you come away from this w/ a feeling of accomplishment, b/c you certainly deserve it.

Going to Alaska is on my things today in the next 10 years so maybe one day. Lastly, I will revise my initial time and guess it will take you 92 hours and 18 minutes.

    It looks like the trip to Alaska was incredible! I’m so sorry that you got sick and couldn’t enjoy it as much as you wanted to, but I’m glad that you’re on the mend now. Rest up, give yourself some fun breaks by doing some easier puzzles in between cosmic sky sessions, and we’ll look forward to seeing your epic triumph soon! My guess as to the final time is 71 hours, 13 minutes. I quail just thinking about all those dark coloured, barely distinguishable colours, but we have faith in your abilities and determination. Onward and upward! You’ve got this! 🍀

Thanks a lot !!

      I received a murder mystery for lending at a library in Lisbon Maine last Wednesday afternoon. The librarian told me that patrons who go there can get a jigsaw puzzle and/or a book. The title is recipe for murder. So far it’s a tough challenge. I got another at a thrift store in Lewiston Maine on Friday with a friend of mine. The title is grounds for murder. Both puzzles are 1,000 pieces and the brand is bepuzzled a maker of university games. Both are made in 2020. Each puzzle is 23 x 29 inches. The tricky thing is you read the story and the image is completely different than the cover. If you want to cheat, take the story and read it with a mirror and electric lamp table, wall and vanity lights. I had a tough time reading the solution with a bathroom light and mirror. I had a hard time with keeping the book still in front of me. I already started a murder mystery jigsaw puzzle in itself. Don’t worry I read the story first. Best of luck finishing the zodiac jigsaw puzzle
