update
for those who wondered
right along with me
how i would solve
this puzzle
when the symmetrical framing
was
quite possibly built upside down
on a table too small to turn the puzzle
i opted
not to
turn the table or tear down the walls or the house
instead
i accepted
the opportunity
of the additional challenge
offered up
and just built it upside down.
solved.

You if you get to 999 and 1’s missing! I love a good puzzle now and again. The combination of a puzzle, Spotify and earphones makes for a very relaxing couple of hours.

very funny and true. the last puzzle i did, right before this, was missing 1 piece at the end and i never found it. yes, it is quite a relaxing enterprise.

Reading this post reminded me of the old saying, “There’s more than one way to skin a cat.” Remind me to call on you if I ever want to skin a cat (assuming I ever have a cat and it needs skinning). BTW, did you know it ain’t no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones (see today’s post on my blog if you don’t believe me).

Smart move to do the puzzle upside down. It changes the way your brain looks at things. When I was learning to draw, one exercise that was very interesting (and successful) was to turn a picture upside down and then draw it that way!

Whoops, thought about my reply & want to clarify something: do the puzzle with the picture upside-down. If the entire puzzle was upside down, the picture would be facing the table!
