Have you ever thought about completing a really large jigsaw? By large I mean really large! In July, 2005 I commenced an 18000 piece jigsaw puzzle. This is the story of my attempt to complete it. Please contact me if you are completing or have completed this puzzle.
When I bought it it was the Largest commercially produced Jigsaw in the World. It contains 18240 pieces and is made by Ravensburger Puzzles a German Company who produce top quality puzzles. It measures when completed approx 9' x 6' or put another way about four average room doors.

The puzzle I was completing is called Tropical Impressions and consists of South American animals and birds at a waterfall. Ravensburger also produce a companion puzzle - The 'Historical World Maps' puzzle. There are 4 bags to each puzzle labelled A, B, C & D (the print on these bags is very faint but it is there, you just have to look carefully). Each bag contains 4560 pieces to make one quarter of these gigantic puzzles.
I was in two minds whether to even start the project. I saw someone wishing to sell the maps puzzle and described it as follows
“The historical world map on the top left of the picture guide (Bag A) is called 'Novus Totius Terrarum Orbis Geographica' and was probably designed by Nicholas Visscher under another name (Pseudonym). The map on the top right (Bag B) 'Orbis Terrarum Nova et Accuratissima' is also by Nicholas Visscher. The map on the lower left (Bag C) is from Johanne A Loon and the map on the lower right (Bag D) is by Ortelius Abraham. I started this puzzle, but after many months I feel I won't complete it (a photo showed how much he managed to do on just 1 quarter (1 bag) of this puzzle - not a lot). This is a real challenge for any Jigsaw fanatic or crazy person who is willing to give it a go. I had great fun doing this and I don't like to be beaten, but I must say this has beaten me and I can never see myself finishing it. So go on, have a go, can you manage to complete this fantastic jigsaw puzzle.”
So after some considerable I decided to take up the challenge
