  • new jigsaw puzzle

    Just in case you have 20 to 30 minutes to waste. 120 pieces I hold the record at 14 minutes and 21 sec.

    Thanks. I do several of these a week. It is a real disadvantage not knowing what it should look like. I like the outcome.

      Ditto. It was hard to put together not knowing but loved the outcome. Thanks for sharing. Didn't come any where near your time.

        1 Hour 51 Min. 44 Sec. is that a Record? I remember doing this years ago, it did NOT help!

            Hey, Peter: Yep, these Jigidi puzzles are only online but a couple hints may help you get started.

            If you click on the link Jon's provided, you should wind up with a screen full of what look like jigsaw puzzle pieces. Use your mouse to move your pointer onto any of the pieces; if you click (Mac) or left-click (PC) on that piece you will then be able to drag it anywhere on the screen and leave it there by letting go of the mouse button. As soon as you've got two neighboring pieces in the correct relationship to each other they "snap" together and slip behind any pieces still in play. After that it's pretty much like working a physical jigsaw puzzle: find a third piece, snap it together with the first two or with another you can already see it matches, and so on. Advantage here is that all the pieces are always right-side-up as far as the picture's concerned, so I always start by pulling the pieces with a straight edge on the left over to the left of the screen, the ones with a straight edge on the top up to the top, and so on.

            It's a snap (pun... sorry) once you get the hang of it, but I've never come anywhere near Jon's times. This one took me 21 minutes, and I've been doing them for almost ten years. Main thing is just to have fun ;-)

                  I haven't been to that site in quite a while. I used to add puzzles from time to time. I am not very fast, but I may have to give it a try again. Lots of interesting topics.

                    It took me a bit over 16 minutes, but I wasn't signed in. I think that is the first puzzle I have done without knowing what the picture was going to be ahead of time.

                            Sorry, but I can't even understand your instructions (not your fault). Wish it were in print.
