Hi everyone, so today’s bonus video doesn’t really have anything to do with this week’s main channel video. I just decided to do some speed puzzling practice and bring you all along with me for it. My goal was to finish the puzzle in under an hour - check out the video to see if I did it:

For full disclosure, this puzzle was gifted to me by Eeboo. But if you want to try it yourself, you can get it here.

I want to apologize for how loud all of the puzzle piece sounds are in the video. Next time I'll stand the audio recorder on its end so it's not directly on the table. Also, a little behind the scenes fact - the audio recorder ran out of battery, but only right after I finished the puzzle. I'm glad the timing worked out like that, because the phone audio was awful!

Anyway, on my main channel today, I solved the 473 piece Lazels puzzle, which if you don’t know is a tiny metal puzzle that you have to use tweezers to solve. You can check out that video right here:

Let me know in the comments if you like these speed puzzling videos. I’ll be doing a lot of practice leading up to World’s, so I’m happy to keep filming them for you all!

Karen, I loved this, thank you. My top tip (if you're interested) is that if you ever speed-puzzle a circular jigsaw again then turn the box lid (picture) round so that it's the same orientation as the puzzle. You were loosing time, all the time, by mentally rotating it. I know that you SAID you were aligning them at one point (albeit moving the puzzle and not the lid), but you didn't align them! You turned the puzzle a bit but it was still way out of sync with the picture on the lid. It's really easy to rotate the lid (quicker than rotating the puzzle) and by not doing this you are falling into the this-is-more-fun mode of puzzling, rather than fine-margins-for-speed puzzling. But you did great, well done.
