Day 26, 27, 28

We couldn't post anything in the past three days as the modem was down and needed a software update.

To start, here is a photo of the puzzle we are working on now:

We are working on assembling the pieces randomly. The day ended with a low number of pieces assembled, 85 pieces, which makes the total assembled so far 356 pieces with 4204 pieces to go.

No photo for this day.

This is the end of day 27.


Day 28 ( Wednesday, Feb 9, 2011 ):

Few things in the puzzle have started to show up. Since we were locating random pieces but they wouldn't assemble together and we knew where they go in, I have drawn the main big two circles as well as the small ones on the cardboard. Every piece that was located was then placed on the cardboard where it belongs to until it fits with the next when found.

the result of this day was assembling 174 pieces that makes the total assembled 530 pieces with 4030 pieces to go.

Few photos of the work are displayed here:

This is the end of day 28.

Here are couple of photos.

This is the end of day 25.

Day 24

Day 24 ( Saturday, Feb 5, 2011 ):

Wow, what a day. Finally we have harvested the long hours that we have planted in this part of the puzzle.

IT IS DONE. Part "D", the right lower section has been done except for the golden frame. We have focused hardly to finish assembling the oceans (first photo), and we had around 160 pieces left were all look the same. We had to check every piece in all possible locations until it fits in its correct place. Took us a long time to do it, until it was the last piece were it was placed (photo 2). The last photo shows the full puzzle been assembled.

Today's result was assembling 491 pieces (the highest number of pieces that have been assembled in ONE day) which brings the total to 4422 pieces with 138 pieces to go.
