Tips to Make Puzzle Assembling Even More Fun!
Tip: We recommend using a Jigboard when putting your jigsaw puzzles together. A Jigboard is a large but lightweight board with a felted surface and a sheet of material that fits over the top. You can get them in various sizes, but we use my Jigboard 2000 for everything, even 1000 piece puzzles. It's great having the extra space.
- Using a jigboard, you can put on the top cover when you’re not working on it. This protects you from losing pieces to cats, dogs, kids, accidental bumps, food spills, etc.
- You can move it off the table if it is on a jigboard. If you have company come visit or need the table for a meal or whatever, just put the cover on the Jigboard, pick it up (careful to keep it flat), and slide it under a bed or the couch or wherever it will fit. Everything stays safe and dust free.
- You can rotate the puzzle. You can rotate your Jigboard so that you can work on various sides of the puzzle more easily.
- It has a felt surface and slight edges which help keep pieces from falling to the floor.

Using a table instead:
If you’re just getting started with puzzling, or don’t do very many, you may not want to invest in a Jigboard. It’s perfectly fine to use a table too. Just make sure the final dimensions of your puzzle will fit on the table. If you have kids or animals, you may want to put a large, flattened cardboard box or something similar on top of the puzzle when you’re not working on it.
- When putting your puzzles together, it is best to use the “turn up once and done” approach. So instead of riffling through a big box of pieces over and over again, looking for bits of red or whatever, you simply make sure every piece is turned face-up at the start. Then all you have to do is scan all the turned up pieces to find what you’re looking for.
