IMPORTANT . . . If you do decide to open the can puzzles, please use a rim cut can opener (also called smooth or side cut). This cuts the can from the side of the top 1/2 through the crimp. This will keep the top lid and can in good condition and the top will still function as a working lid without ruining it.
I was going to post similar advice. I believe they're called safety can openers. I would further suggest that you either practice on less important cans before using it on those puzzles, or alternatively if one of your friends has one and is familiar with them, let them open the cans. These can be tricky to learn how to use.
I wouldn’t open them and keep the cans intact
This.
They're usually called "safety openers".
I can recommend the Kuhn Rikon one.
@@shayanavenue8787 Obviously several people do, so maybe go take your irrelevant and pointless comment elsewhere.
I got one of these can openers after watching a video from Technology Connection, and it is so satisfying to use. The can top is not sharp when you open it this way.
You are becoming a puzzle museum at this point
One of the BEST things about this video is because every unboxing part was filmed individually when they arrived, Karen is full of enthusiasm in every shot, and doesn't slow down 😊.
I'd want to try the moving puzzle. Just to find out if you can roll them into a tube by connecting the left edge with the right one.
My favourite motif is the Gumball machine from springbok. That "punch" of bright red color on black background is definitely for me 😊
The Women's liberation and The pill puzzle would be the BEST for March 8th, thats so cool that they made such important movements/inventions into beautiful puzzles! I'd love to solve them as well
Oh abolutely, I would be so hyped for a womens day puzzle special
Those were so amazing! A women's day puzzle special would be so neat!
Garbage!
Yes please!!!
The wildest part of this video is you not owning a can opener! 😂
I can't believe she doesn't have a box cutter. I get a lot of boxes in the mail both at home and at work so I've had a box cutter for a long time now. Always annoys me when I see a fellow puzzler using scissors.
Synergistics Research Corp. sounds like an Evil Lab in Marvel Comics.
SRC is in fact a subsidiary of Cyberdyne Systems..................

Perfect
A note on the cans without a pull tab-- sometimes old games' tops can be pried up on the edge instead of using an opener that cuts the lid. It allows the can to be reclosed
Anf if they can't, safety openers cut through the fold so lid stays intact and the tin can be reclosed.
There may be no need for a can opener. I’ve seen similar packaging and the tin lid pops off.
‘Tripping over piles of historical significance’ is me walking in my hoarding palace when I’m older
I'm so glad you like the wooden Bits and Pieces we gave you! Thanks for showing it!
I would like to see a video about you finish the die/dice puzzle. Watching this one come together would probably be lots of fun, even though it may not be the most exciting puzzle of the ones shown in the video.
As someone who works in museum/gallery collections AND is a puzzle enthusiast, these videos are sooo satisfying haha. Love hearing your collecting logic and goals!
Also I really recommend hanging a sheet of plastic over your collection (though it's not the cutest), to protect from unexpected water leaks. Also, keeping them in the shade as much as possible to reduce bleaching overtime :). At the same time, displaying your collection is part of enjoying your collection, so no pressure! Just a tips!
❤️
I keep almost all of the vintage puzzles inside a wardrobe and closet that have doors. But someday I definitely want to move them somewhere more secure to be sure I'm keeping them in the best condition possible.
Be sure to insure all your investment in your puzzles too!
This video completely got away from me, because there was so much I kept wanting to add 😂 But let me know which puzzles you'd most want to solve, and also which puzzles you'd be most interested in seeing me feature in the future 🧩
I love the long videos. I put them on while I cook or do chores and it’s like having a friend chat at me and not so lonely.
I love the farmers almanac puzzle! I'm really interested in gardening (it's my favorite thing to do besides puzzling) and use the farmers almanac for many things.
I'm so curious about 'The Pill' canned puzzle. The weird description on the back seems to be... hinting at something? Maybe about what the final image will be? I just hope it won't get you demonitized. 😂
I would love to see you solve all those can puzzles (depending on how difficult) particularly the birth control and female empowerment ones!
The colorful garden vegetables and food platters are so pretty. I want to do those ones the most. The best ones for the video might be the ones where we aren’t sure what the picture will be, or maybe the mindfulness set.
I really love that you choose puzzle moments from previous videos as your settings for the unboxings. Those little call backs are the'best'. 😊
The timeline is jumping around in this video. Christopher Nolan COULD NEVER
If the wet paint and spilled milk puzzles are all the same cut, would be fun for you to solve them all, then swap some pieces around to make some colored patterns.
Seeing the Vasarely puzzle made me instantly remember my childhood…. Victor Vasarely was a popular artist back in the late seventies/early eighties, I had some of his artworks on the wall when I was a teenager. 45 years have passed since then…
I don't really do puzzles, but your collection and how incredibly enthusiastic you are about it is just really cool to see. Also, needing a can opener to open a puzzle -- that's a new one!
I loved the puzzles in a can. As a Ford enthusiasts Id collect the blue oval stuff even if I didnt collect puzzles. One bit of advice would be to use a can opener that cuts thru the rolled seal from the side. Then you won't have sharp edges and you can put the top back on the can like a lid. Thanks, you are the BEST!
I just love the "I have to borrow a can opener to open my puzzle". Such a silly thing to think about.
Every time I’m at an antique shop, thrift store or flea market I’m looking for most of these older puzzles just so I can send it to you; no luck so far but I’m keeping my eyes open
State of New Hampshire
Always so exciting to see you light up about a new treasure for your collection - it's the BEST. I'm most curious about the puzzles in the tins. Can't wait to see you open one up so we can see what the puzzles are like inside.
If those canned puzzle lids don't pop off, try to borrow a side cut can opener! It will let you put the lid back on and won't leave a sharp edge around the inside of the rim.
One of your BEST videos ever. I have done the needlepoint Springbok puzzle too. Since you have done so much other crafting in the past, it would be fun to see you attempt the needlepoint itself to coordinate with the puzzle!
Best (although they went out of business) was known for their architecturally innovative store fronts. The one you have was particularly noted by the architecture community.
There was a Best not too far from my doctor's office when I was a kid, and they had a good toy department, so I remember going there quite a few times. And I probably bought puzzles there!
I remember going to a Best Products (which is what i recall the place being called) which was a giant cube of a building. The main entrance was on a corner and it looked like all the blocks that made up the wall had been broken out. The facade was all jagged. I remember thinking it was cool when I was very little.
@@jenniferpearce1052 : Yup, Best Products Company was the full name. I don't remember our store being quite so interesting, though.
There were two Best stores in my area, and they were probably the most boring of the company's store designs. I remember looking at other stores in their catalog and being envious. 😊 I think I still have some serving platters I bought there.
I am a minute in and I've just paused the video to say thanks! It's so nice to see someone normal.and excited about packages! Much better to open up treasure when it arrives! Good on you!
Hi Karen. May I suggest that if you open the can puzzles to use a Safe Cut can opener. They cut the lid from the side instead of through the top. You can also put the lid back on and either tape it down, or put a plastic lid over it. I think that would be the BEST way to do it. I like the Moving puzzle. It would be neat to have several of them to connect to each other. Congrats on your finds.
BEST collection for sure!! ❤ I love the honest joy you have for the hobby and your community 🥰
These haul videos are a true highlight of my week! They are the BEST. There were to many to pick a favorite. The one that seemed most unique was the dice puzzle.
I enjoyed the way this video built over time with many somewhat related subjects. Thanks
The excitement you have for each unique puzzle is so contagious. Some of my favorite videos are the ones with a bit of a puzzle history lesson in them. I find the history of the puzzles fascinating.
Karen, the bedt part of these viseos is your reactions and enthusiasm
Necer loose that 😊
your joy is so infectious- i love the community formed around here to help a wonderful woman grow her incredible collection. theres nothing but pure, unadulterated passion here n it brings me so much joy
You are the best!
I love when you share with us information about old puzzles (it makes me love puzzling even more ) , but personally I would have a lot of fun solving modern ones you showed!
I love busy and colorful pictures!
And hope you will make separate video/s about canned puzzles! They look so cool!
I love your channel, Karen!
You are the most earnest, geniune person I follow on CZcams. I love doing puzzles, but don't have the resources to collect any of them, except your puzzles. I have both of them, amazing designes, can't wait for a new one.
Love, from Hungary, thank you for making my days every time you post. ❤
I'm so happy for you getting your collections going, can't wait for seeing you doing them. 😊
I would enjoy doing alchemist kitchen for myself 😊
The magnetic box one and the interchangeable one without edges sounds most interesting for videos in my opinion.
Agree, esp the interchangeable 1. Best for a video.
Me: oh, there are no interesting videos anymore... I should just do something productive
*Refreshes youtube*
*Karen uploaded 40+ min video*
Me: Oh no
Sounds like you'll just have to be productive in 47 minutes 🤷🏻♀️
Nice to see a new viedo from you.
36:04 for your information Vasarely was a Hungarian-French artist, who maybe starts and really leads of the Op arts (optical arts) movement.
I was last summer at his museum in Aix-en-Provence. It was really impressive.
Interesting! I'll definitely so some reading about him when I solve the puzzle!
Check the wet paint pics again… it was one shoot. The red can is in the same position for the blue and yellow spills. And the blue is unchanged for the yellow and red spills. Love the logistics of the product design and development, had to shot in order of blue, yellow, red 🤓🖖🏾.
I noticed the same thing. The order could also be red, yellow, blue. Just as long as yellow is in the middle.
That's so cool that you got that puzzle catalog!
Karen, you are the best! Thank you for renewing my love of puzzles
This is the Best channel for puzzle hype. So much fun to see the last pieces (hehe) of a collection fall into place!
I want this collection!! I love vintage puzzles ❤
Love the unboxing video’s and watching how giddy you get, your laugh cracks me up😊. Best❤
Some day you are going to need to open a puzzle museum, which would be the coolest thing to walk around. Love them all.
The puzzle named Vasarely in the end is probably inspired by a hungarian-french artist, Victor Vasarely, he is/was known for this kind of geometric, optical illusion arts (I'm hungarian, so it was good to see 😊) Thank you for the video!
I love your vintage puzzle posts! Love learning about them and seeing what is out there. Dream is owning one of these vintage puzzles one day.
The best thing about this video is how the background changes as time goes by 😂
I'd love to solve that Neverending puzzle, it's such an interesting concept. And as others have suggested, I think it would be great to solve the Women's Liberation and The Pill can puzzles for a women's day special 😊
I wanna do the mini wooden puzzle. Those look the BEST to me. I love it when you do puzzle hauls. Soo fun to see all the vintage ones.
One of the BEST things that has come from me stumbling over your channel and videos is reigniting my love for jigsaw puzzles again - I used to do them with my gran (she died age 93 a couple years ago) and doing them again now makes me feel a little closer to her, so thank you for that. Incidentally, my renewed love of jigsaws has now spread through the other women in my family (aunts) and we're all now falling back in love with jigsaws!
I still need to finish the HP jigsaw I got for xmas... I keep avoiding it because the only section that's left is a near 2 foot expanse of solid black... which it turns out, I'm not very good at! I did however find some really fun random-cut puzzles that I really love.
I think the one I want to see solved most is either the pill puzzle or the womens empowerment puzzle, they're really interesting to me.
I've been getting more into puzzles over the years and now I'm just as excited as you looking at all these rare puzzles 😅 great finds!
There are some can openers that sort of don't damage the lid, and the lid can be put back on the can after being opened! I've learnt that thanks to Technology Connections channel :)
Called "safety openers".
It was the BEST watching how you got hyped about each and every puzzle. What a beautiful collection! If you open a museum someday, I'll come see it.
When you open that can, I recommend using an opener that cuts the outside of the crimp on the lid. This will mean you have a usable lid, without it dropping down into the can.
"That's to much to pay for a single puzzle"
But that's not a single, it's a LP 😅😅😅😅
That quote from your friend sounds like the kind of hyper-philisophical thing that ends up in a biopic. "Karen, you're going to be tripping over piles of historical significance!" Just think of how that sounds like the biggest compliment, but also it's silly so I love it.
BEST! Oh my goodness!!! I LOVE the Eboo Cat in the Castle!! Definitely the type of image I gravitate towards, will have to keep my eye open for that! BEST!
so excited to come home from work and find this video to watch!
From one nerd to another, it's common to call a die by the number of sides it has! So you have a d6 puzzle! If you had two, you'd have 2d6 puzzles!
1:32 WE HAVE VINYL! Also, loving the fact that Record players are back in fashion.
I am not fond of solid color puzzles or gradients but love the very busy puzzles, such as all the EBU's that I had never heard of before today. I thought those were the BEST puzzles and will look for one of those soon. I love all the history and details about all the various puzzles. I predict one day you will be the curator or your puzzle museum!! I would buy a ticket for sure..
Came for the puzzles, walked away obsessed with the Springbok bargello pattern. I have GOT to try making it!
I was hoping someone who knows needlepoint would see it!
Those can puzzles are neat and if you do open them please do from the bottom and hopefully a snap on lid can be used to save the pieces in the cans. A fun video Karen as usual as you do all with real enthusiasm. I also knew you would solve that little puzzle at the genius level and yes you are the "best" in the joy you radiate with what you do!
Most of the tins came with the lid, but hopefully she can find a lid that fits the tin that doesn’t have one.
Even better - use a safety opener that cuts through the folded edge and leaves an usable lid.
Love the record puzzle!!! Such a great find :)
oh I love seeing you geek out on puzzles!
That is one of your BEST videos so far, a great collection of vintage puzzles. My favorite was No Deposit No Return and the Gumball Machine. The Moving Puzzle would be fun to watch you solve.
Eboo is one of my favorite puzzles to do. Love the colors.
Wow! Already impressed with these unique and rare puzzles.
Best: this was fantastic! The puzzles were so interesting and your bubbly attitude was infectious. You are amazing!
That was the BEST puzzle haul!
Your Painter's Puzzle has a really interesting story. There is a game by the same illustrator. I have a copy at home, but Google is not helping me find it. It was the BEST game to play with my mom.
I've been loving the longer format videos, they're truly the Best😉 and you're doing a great job!
I'd love to do the magnetic Die puzzle, truly because I've never seen anything like it.
And in terms of future content, I'd love to see you attempt the puzzles in the cans (that you'll need a can opener for😅) I'm interested in the pieces and I'm also wondering if you'd have a solution for storing them.
Thank yuo for brightening my Thursday, it truly makes my day seeing you get excited and nerd out over something you're so passionate about. One day i'd love to see you open a vintage puzzle exhibit😁
The fox wooden puzzle is my favorite
The moon and snowflake vintage ones to feature in a video
You may in luck very soon 👀
What a great video! 2 collections complete and I'm only halfway through 👌 the completionist in me is so happy for you
Happy to see you do any of these puzzles next. But, challenging as it might be , it would be great to see a comparison of the 2 red puzzles with their slightly different puzzle cut and hear what you think is easier (or should I say harder?). For me personally, I'd be doing one of the eeboo puzzles. I have just started their round blue bird, yellow bird 500 piece and am really enjoying it.
1. I had to buy the Eeboo "Cat and the castle puzzle" after seeing it here
2. More circle puzzle solves or the Purple Dread, my favorite color :D
You are the BEST! I really enjoyed this video and didn't mind the length of it at all. I'm not sure that I can explain but, I liked the way you did each puzzle delivery separately and that you interrupted other videos to do it. I thought this video was fun. You keep making them I'll keep watching them. I'm ready to watch you build another puzzle.
Love the record!
This video is the BEST thing to cheer me up on this late evening in Poland.
I would like to see the comparison of Jigsaw Puzzle Cesse-Tete Super Challenge and Magnetic Dice puzzle ♥
41:30- TUCO is one of those blasts from the past! I do remember those when I was a child in the early 1960s. Also the unique light purple back-color.
I think the BEST one is moving puzzle, I’d be really interested in seeing that. I’d love to do the tapestry one, I’m a big cross stitcher and I actually have a puzzle with a very similar on my LARGE todo pile! Great video Karen. 🧩
That puzzle box is soooo cool.
YOU are the BEST! Thank you for these awesome videos! I love the busyness of the Eeboo puzzles. They’re so colorful and pretty. I think those would be fun to see a video about. I know you prefer the clean graphics of Cloudberries. I think I haven’t really decided on a favorite yet.
I think it is just fun for us to see you be so happy with things. Positive reactions are rare in today's world on social media and it is delightful to see. Enjoy your new puzzles! Make sure you insure your collection. :-)
I’d love to see you put together the die cube puzzle and the flat mirrored puzzle. Those are the best! Also the Pill puzzle would be a riot to see!
Your one of my favorite channel! Puzzle rules, keep doing what you enjoy! 😅
Those wentworth puzzles are gorgeous. I am going to have to check them out.
I had that Hersheys kiss puzzle back in maybe 1980. My grandmother got it for all of her grandkids. I don’t think any of us ever opened them. I don’t know what happened to it though. It was nice seeing it again thanks I’m a big fan of yours.
Haven't finished the video yet, but if you do open those metal cans, please make sure you use a can opener that removes the whole top of the can. You won't have any sharp edges like with the ones that cut the inside disc out from the outer rim. You'll be able to set the top back on and it won't look like it's been opened. I think most newer openers work this way? It's a lot safer than the older ones. Those puzzles are excellent! I hope a women's history museum has them.
Not all new ones work like that, you have to search for a "safety opener".
In the late 60s, early 70s, I did a bunch of puzzles. All of them Springbok, which I would buy in the large Hallmark store in the financial district of Manhattan. The puzzle that made me quit doing puzzles, was a 500 piece puzzle featuring timepiece gears. I believe all the pieces were either gold, brass, or silver. All gears. Easy for you, I'm sure, but quite difficult for me. Having discovered your channel, i again feel that craving to want to do puzzles again. I'll start with something fun before tackling the hard ones. Thanks for inspiring me!
Your the BEST puzzler to me karen Thank u ❤❤❤
I live in the Houston area and the BEST building always fascinated me as a kid. I have no idea how long it was before I realized that the building was designed that way and wasn't just dilapidated. Very cool to see it in puzzle form here!
Ok even cooler, I know the person who wrote the article about that building! Small world!
Ah, the Ford Fiesta Movement. What a blast from the past! :D I watched a ton of people do it and I might very well be forgetting some, but the ones who come to mind are you, Michael Aranda, Kristina Horner, Olga Kay... maybe Brittani Louise Taylor? Joe Penna, I'm pretty sure... probably others too, who knows!
Were you the one who had to learn to drive in order to do it, or was that someone else? I'm only thinking it might have been you because of where you grew up. It seems like the sort of place where driving wouldn't be a huge necessity to get around like it is in the vast deserts of West Texas, where I live.
In any case, thanks for reminding me of it. Lots of fun memories!
If you want to open those cans cleanly without any sharp edges, use the style of can opener that uncrimps the edge without cutting it. You can even fit the lid back on after it's been opened.
They don't actually uncrimp, just cut through the crimped edge from the outside.
oh my goodness, I grew up near that Indeterminate Facade building in Houston! It was right next to Almeda Mall and I thought it was so odd that they built a building to look like it was falling down lol. What a small world, never thought it would be puzzle picture worthy, and haven't thought about it in decades, so what are the odds I'd be watching a video about it on youtube in 2024!
This video was so chaotic in like the best way - all the clips put together was so fun and every shot was new and exciting
Oooh I love the illustrations on the eeboo puzzles 🥺 drat now I want new puzzles
I loved this video and your enthusiasm. I have to admit that there were so many puzzles of historical significance that I could not hold them in my mind. The one I would most like to do is the round ravens burger with a second runner up of the ornaments! And the one I would most like you to do is the die. I found that concept of magnetic pieces so interesting especially in a box form. Super cool.
What a wonderful collection. Looking forward seeing next videos with any of these jigsaws.
Hi Karen. I only do art puzzles but love your show, especially the competitions. 🥰
