Mo Racca is amazing; I love the story of Jigsaw Puzzles. He should definitely be amazing on CBS Puzzle Day.

I have been a huge puzzler as of recent and encourage anyone to try it out. Its a great way to pass the time and keeps your mind active.

I love jigsaw puzzles! I find it relaxing to put them together. My oldest one is from 1934. It's a illustration of Waikiki Beach without the future hotels.

Great piece! My dad made us puzzles of wood when we were kids with his jigsaw. We love to do 3D puzzles.

Puzzles were awesome when I was younger!!! My dad always bought them for my brother and I. But as a family we would piece them together. GOOD TIMES!!! And WW II aircraft models.

I've rediscovered my old love of jigsaw puzzles. I put shipping tape neatly on when finished, front and back. It's my way of laminating them. I can NOT bring myself to take them apart again. I've tried puzzle glue before but it made the puzzle curl. I know there are puzzle frames somewhere out there, too.

Great to see the lovely anne williams still going strong, wooden puzzles personified!! I can highly recomend her book (shown here). I am taking advantage of my woodies to the max at the moment. If you hav'nt tried a wooden puzzle...go for it!! They are a whole different experience to a card-stock one. Much more tactile, in some ways trickier and, well... satisfying

Piece Time Puzzles’ website is down. No wonder why. What a great local business to support, and an awesome gift idea! I hope they can hire more staff soon :)

The last puzzle I pieced was in 2003. Butterflies. And the cat ate the missing piece. I framed it anyway. Misplaced over the years.

In native people's heritage's, one imperfection signifies the "imperfectness" of life, or something like that.

Renting jigsaw puzzles? I'm an ebay seller and sold several puzzles during the lockdown. I bought a used puzzle from a thrift store that I never put together. I sold it in ebay. The buyer put it together then said a piece was missing a returned it. I guess they thought I was running a rent-a-puzzle business.

I don’t have any room to do puzzles. Probably wouldn’t do them anyway? I want to start buying the wooden puzzles for gifts but are they expensive!! But I might do it anyway. They look pretty cool. Be something different.

I have cats, so no puzzles for me. 🧐

Love the concept, look and feel of art crystal puzzles, but wish the subject matter would vary more! Not a fan of the weird little Japanese creatures.
