Currently (almost) cursing Mtn
Can't find the thread where these puzzles were mentioned, and I ordered four 1,000 piece puzzles. Just started this one late yesterday - got pieces laid out, semi sorted as I went, started a few butterflies and finished the frame this morning. I have always done puzzles from the outside inward, but my uncle says he always starts in the middle. Hoping to get several butterflies done today between errands. How do you work puzzles and how long do you leave finished before taking it apart?

last yearI always work from the outside in but if I see components begging to be put together I will oblige! This one was not fun for me at all. DH and his twin sister did most of it and then he and I finished after she left. Sorry for the glare on the picture. Generally I'll leave them intact a day or two - the attachment is gone! I bought this one used at a resale shop and as you can see from the box there was one piece missing.

Comments (3)Hey just saw your followup. I almost live on mercury (Houston, TX). Models are as follows: Carrier 58STA110-22 130 Series furnace Carrier 24abb460a310 compressor Carrier cnphp6124ataabaa coil Honeywell HZ311 damper control board We've been through numerous iterations trying to get enough ducting to properly flow 5 tons worth of air. Right now we have a supply plenum that feeds two rectangular dampers (1 for each zone) which are apparently rated at 1100 CFM each. There is also a bypass damper with the weighted arm for adjusting the extra air, its run with 12" flex. It loops way back around into a mixing box on the return side. Current problems are its sweating on the outside of the supply plenum. The furnace blower is set to high speed. AC company measured static pressure (took a reading at the return side and supply sides) and said it was .4. Specifically, he measured at the return before the air hits the filter and on the supply side after the coil. I can get you any other info ya need such as air temp etc....See MoreThe Curse of Oak Island
Comments (30)I doubt it's irrigation as the wood is being found 100-110 feet below...that's like a 10 story building. No irrigation needs to be that deep, esp on the atlantic coast where rain is plentiful. There was so much work put into building this thing that it's hard to believe it was done for some trivial purpose......See MoreAnother Dyson discussion - Mtn and others!
Comments (49)Very happy. Mine arrived on Monday from QVC after ordering on Thursday evening. That’s fast! It came with about a 40% charge. I really like it so far, but I haven’t really tested it much except to run it around the house on Eco and Auto mode to get a feel for it. It was much quieter than my old one in those 2 modes. I doubt I will use boost mode much, but maybe so with a couple of attachments. The housekeepers were coming today so I’m sure I will be using more later....See MoreSafe travels, Mtn!
Comments (65)Yes, they did a blood test and said no gout. However, I read this: Blood tests to measure levels of uric acid can support a diagnosis of gout, but cannot confirm it. This is because it is possible for people with gout to have normal levels of uric acid, especially during an attack. It may well have been a bite or sting, but if it was that she never noticed it and there was nothing visible. I think it was gout because it was the top of her foot, right over the joint of the big toe, and nowhere else. That is where it usually presents. It is so oddly specific. Also really the amount of food pushed on us was crazy. Like cruises almost....See More

last yearI love working jigsaw puzzles, but this is the one and only puzzle I gave up on. Each piece is the same configuration - 2 in and 2 out. I completed the border and the girl, which was challenging enough, but gave up on the black background. My BIL who also loves puzzles gave up as well. However, I have 2 brothers who love a challenge and by using several sources of lighting to see the VERY subtle differences in the black, did finish it. This picture is from one of my brothers. This puzzle is 1000 pieces.

last yearI usually have a 1000 piece puzzle going. I tend to do them in the evening since I'm not much of a TV watcher. I'll turn on good music and I find it is really a relaxing distraction from all the craziness these days.
A couple of years ago my Grandson gave me a 3000-piece one for Christmas. I initially had my doubts that I would ever finish it. Several times I came close to putting all the pieces back in the box.The picture is not one I would have picked on my own

When we finished our 1000 pc. puzzle, there were 2 pieces missing. Not very surprising since the puzzle was second hand, and worked on a tray made from a repurposed cork bulletin board that I moved in and out of a storage area a number of times to protect it when we weren't working on it. After I'd put it away and was cleaning up in the storage area, I found first one, then the other of those missing pieces on the floor 😄
We also had an extra piece that didn't belong...
