It’s my first Friday release and I love that I’m going to get my Sunday morning back! I made the title of today’s video a bit dramatic, but parts of the video are pretty dramatic, so go with me here. It’s the story of an estate sale auction where a ton of vintage puzzles were up for sale,...

Hi everybody! I’m back in LA and back in puzzle video production! I have so many updates to share with all of you.

Hello from New Jersey! Before I headed home, I decided to film a quick haul video (well, it ended up being 30 minutes long) showing all of the new puzzles I’ve gotten lately. There are a lot of really interesting vintage and modern puzzles in here:
I don't have a new main channel video today, but as promised, here is my Patreon-exclusive video going through the puzzle magazine AEPuzz! I don't speak Spanish, so I had to use the Google Translate app to be able to read any of it. If I do have Spanish viewers out there and you see something int...

Hi everyone, as I’m sure you’ve been able to tell from some of my recent posts on here, I’ve been feeling pretty burnt out and overworked lately. So I’m planning to have a slower September to rest and relax before some big things that are coming up in October and November.
Today’s...

Hi everyone, so unfortunately I don’t have a new main channel video for you today. All of my videos for the past two months or so have been a ton of work, and by the time I published last week’s video, I was more exhausted than I’ve ever been in my life.
At first I meant to just take ...

Hi everyone! I’m so happy to share this week’s video with you - I did two puzzles that are entirely made of edge pieces. They were actually easier than you’d think, so you can see my full review here:

When I tell you this video was a PROJECT, I am not lying. In fact, it was so much work that I only got half of it done and decided to split it into two parts. So today I’m recapping the Individual round, plus answering some questions about how puzzle competitions work. Then whenever I get it fi...
