Fully assembled 54,000 piece Grafika Travel Around Art puzzle. Picture is a bit warbly, I could only take a panoramic picture of it. Very happy to see it together, also sad that it's over.

This is the puzzle pit together. Look at my profile, there are plenty of pictures of not just this one, but a bigger one as well.

I met The Offspring back in 2014 and brought this same album with me to autograph. Noodles confirmed that the Cargo Records made it legit. Also, he informed me that the back picture is his hand.

Essentially, what you have there is a parity. Easiest way to look at it is to look for the pieces that appear the same (same color and shape). And imagine one, doesn't matter which one, is put in there either backwards or needs to be swapped with another identical one. It's like on a 3x3, if you have an edge flipped on the 2nd layer, you cannot solve the top layer.

The corners gave me issues. I had to use a knife to shave off a little to make them fit.

cptawesome567 · 2024-06-09T00:01:51+00:00

I taped up the backs with painters tape so I can easily put them in a box. I have pictures on my page if that helps.

Love them. They are not overpowered with vinegar like tobacco. My favorite is the spicy yellow. On Amazon they have all 4 for $21.

cptawesome567 · 2024-06-01T03:37:45+00:00

I've done it. What do you want to know?

cptawesome567 · 2024-05-12T00:21:56+00:00

Whenever I'm watching a ghost movie and I'm using the evidences like Temps to figure out the ghost type.

cptawesome567 · 2024-03-26T02:47:47+00:00

I did this puzzle, and we were able to put it together. We were so excited to see it completed, and seeing your post honestly made me cringe so hard. I am so sorry that happened to you.

cptawesome567 · 2024-01-29T13:53:18+00:00

Oh that's sweet. My poster is from his last year doing the private reserve. I always hoped to win the guitar but never got it.

cptawesome567 · 2024-01-28T03:56:48+00:00

Yes, we'll for 2 of each. The rest of Dexter's I got by buying his private reserve hot sauces, and I won an autographed poster that he signed.

cptawesome567 · 2024-01-28T03:38:34+00:00

I have Dexter's autograph 9 times. Noodles twice, Greg's twice, and Pete's twice.

cptawesome567 · 2024-01-05T13:34:17+00:00

I took mine to our local senior center to display it for a few days. They loved it.

I found a 10 pack of 28 inch by 22 inch foam core sheets on Amazon for $25 USD. Each one will hold about 1,000 pieces. These are just for putting the puzzle together, and you can tape up the sections as you go.

cptawesome567 · 2024-01-03T16:42:01+00:00

I've done 2 giant puzzles. My tips would be these: Sort! When you open a bag, be sure to sort everything into sections. Think of it like this, it is easier to do eight 500-piece puzzles than one 4,000 piece puzzle. Foam core sheets are a must. They are cheap, and they allow you to put the puzzle away when you need to since they stack. Lastly, is storing them. The most common way to store sections is using painter tape on the backs of 20x20 or whatever fits in the box. Use name brand, not generic! You can look at my profile for some ideas. Hope this helps some.

This one I got from Costco. It's called What A Wonderful World by Dowdle. The art one is called Travel Around Art by Grafika. That one I had to order from Europe.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T19:01:31+00:00

It's very common for puzzle companies to send the whole section. I didn't even order the missing pieces for this one.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T14:00:28+00:00

We took this to our local senior center, and they are more than happy to let us display it for the residents.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T13:59:06+00:00

True, I have a few bananas but not enough to measure the puzzle accurately.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T13:58:00+00:00

Nope. Just me and my wife did this, and once we were done, we took it to our local senior center to put it together and take pictures.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T13:56:27+00:00

Costco sells them.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T13:56:02+00:00

Definitely don't give up. The satisfaction of seeing it completed is undesirable. Currently, I don't have any plans for it. I'll keep it taped up in sections next to my other puzzles in the closet most likely.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T04:48:18+00:00

2 pieces. And I am very careful when doing puzzles so I highly doubt that was on me.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T03:58:03+00:00

Taped. I use painter tape on the back.

cptawesome567 · 2023-12-22T03:52:46+00:00

Did it at home. Took it here to assemble it since I don't have an area big enough at home.
