Tahiti Update - Done!

  • Took about 14 weeks.  I started April 3.
  • 4,000 pieces exactly, 80 by 50.
  • Final puzzle is 3 feet by 4.5 feet.
  • Jackie and Jarrod might have put 20 pieces or less together.  I did the rest.
  • When I started, I put the pieces all over the main table and six different sorting trays.
  • I was missing one piece, in the leaves of the short tree to the left of the tallest tree.  After I assembled the other 3,999 pieces, I searched for that one and found it, so that was officially the last piece.
  • This was a pretty fun project.  Jackie bought me the puzzle and two "puzzle caddies" many years ago.  The puzzle caddies were the source for the space I built the puzzle on and all the sorting trays.  Nice presents Sweetheart!
  • Now I need another way to waste large amounts of time.
