One way to glue and hang a jigsaw puzzle
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 фев 2021
- In this video I show you one of my favorite ways to hang a jigsaw puzzle on the wall. I could not find my puzzle glue so I flipped the puzzle over and used wood glue, I was not sure what it would do to the front. I recommend using puzzle glue on the front and only a little bit of glue on the back (spreading it out with a brush - which I forgot to do) to stick it to wood :)
I would really like to thank Wintergatan for the music. Do not be surprised if you hear a lot more of it in the future. You can find his youtube page below along with a link to his free music :)

Note: there were a few minor mistakes with this.. when gluing the back of the puzzle, you do not need this much glue. You can also spread it out once you put it down. Finally, when you finish gluing it, turn the puzzle over and wipe off any excess glue that may have gone between the pieces. You will notice that some glue went through and 3/4 of the way up the puzzle, it wore off some of the finish.
What a brilliant idea! Now I don't have to worry about spending lots of money and effort on finding the matching frame of my 8000 puzzle! Thank you soooooo much!
Thank you so much for your reply! 8000 pieces is quite impressive. Would love to see how it turns out for you when you are done. If you want, you can email me a photo!!
Wintergatan and a puzzle. Life is good!
I could not agree more.. who does not love Wintergatan? I want names! hahaha
First time I see the technique of leaving a piece out for the screws. Very neat!
I am not sure it is an original idea but it sure makes taking the puzzle down a lot easier later on :) ... also I used too much glue and I should have spread it out with a brush... I had just been so focused on getting the video done as it had been sitting or ages. Thank you so much for watching and commenting
@@davepuzzled how would you take the puzzle down? I love the idea I have several puzzles I need to hang up.
@@daniellestclair8689 well.. to take it down you just pull out those four pieces and then unscrew it. because I glued it to the board, that part is forever
I have the same puzzle. Nice to see that you cut the puzzle’s name at the bottom
I hope you enjoyed putting it together as much as I did! Interestingly, my puzzle didn't have the name on the bottom. I wonder if it is simply a production choice? Thanks for watching btw :)
Stunning! I've had a dejavu with that Vangohg. Always wondered when I would physically see it.
Thanks for the instruction. Nice work!
Thank you so much for your nice words… I think, if you want to see the real painting, it is located at the Kröller-Muller Museum in the Netherlands. It is a fun puzzle to make too!! 🌻

Yes Sir!!! This is it. Way too easy and such a perfect way to display the work.
I wanted to do something different in my workout room, so I decided to do puzzle art on the wall. I was going to just frame it regularly. But you just completely change my mind… Thank you!
I am so happy you like this idea Jerome. It is simple and easy. I actually do it with many puzzles because I can hang them up like art, and then by simply removing those four pieces that I do not glue, I can take them down and either put something else up or whatever :)
Way to go using both a jigsaw _and_ a random orbital sander barefoot! 😳
Maybe I should have added… don’t do this at home without flip flops? Just kidding … it’s a good point
Great technique, thank you! Plus, the cat made me subscribe :)
aweee... thank you.. and one of my many cats thank you too :)
haha thank you so much i am actualy glueing the same exact puzzle!!
Post it to Instagram when you are done so I can see it!! :)
Hi Dave. Ty very much for the idea. I have a 4000 piece panoramic puzzle and i wanted to frame it but I couldn't find anywhere a frame on that exact length and width. Now i ll go and buy a piece of wood that big and will finally frame my puzzle. You are awesome and i subscribed to your channel. Keep up
Aweee thank you for such nice words and for subscribing. I’m not sure how I can too this video but I will give it a try :)
I love this technique!!
Aweee.. thanks.. I do not know how original it may be, but I like how they hang on the wall this way for sure! :)
Awesome video!
Thank you so much, I hope you give it a try and if so, please share the results!! Happy holidays!
All I do is buy a clip frame .
Most 500 piece jigsaw will fit into a 20" x 16" frame.
Slide the white side of the sheet of paper ( this comes with the clip frame ) under the completed jig saw , then slice the hardboard backing under the paper , lay the glass ( or perspex ) on top , fit the clips and job done.
You will end up with a small white boarder around the edges, the side border being slightly wide than the top and bottom.
No glue required as the puzzle is trapped between the hardboard and glass
Thank you for the idea, maybe someone will want to try that too.
Badass bro
Thanks!!
Well done for your video sir. It's a great solution, especially when you have to deal with huge puzzles! I would only add some puzzle glue at front. The wood is MDF? How many cm?
Hi, I’m very sorry for my delayed reply!
I agree about the puzzle glue on the front, somehow I thought I mentioned this same thing.
The wood was finely finished plywood but you could use any wood you want. I would just not use too thick of a piece unless you want to put a finish on the sides. This piece is about 1cm thick
Good luck and please let me know where I can see some of your big puzzles hanging, I’d love to see them!
How would you remove it if you decide to move or you no longer want it there ?
Hi, if you notice during the glueing there are the four pieces I removed from the puzzle. They do not get glued. So, when you hang the puzzle and attach it to the wall, those spots are open and then you place those four puzzle pieces in their respective places. If, at another time you want to take down the puzzle, you simple pull out those four pieces and then you can unscrew the puzzle from the wall. Maybe I will make a short video to demonstrate that.
Just use clear packing tape
This is a good idea to make a puzzle stay together to hang. The only thing I think to think about is how to then stick it to the board you want it against.
What I like about the glue is it adheres both ways and also, gives a nice solid finish to the edges.
Thank you so much for your idea!!
would be cool if the puzzle manufacturer would do this bevor he sends us the puzzles so don‘t have to put all the pieces together everytime we buy i a new jigsaw puzzle.
that is certainly one idea :)
What was the wood you used? Luan? Good idea for hanging. That is a little too permanent for me. I'll use a wire on the back like traditional hanging.
Hi, I am very sorry for my delayed reply. In this video I am using 1/4” plywood. It has a finer finish than many plywoods and I chose that one because the smooth surface ensures a nice even puzzle laying flat against the board
Hi Dave, no idea if you will see this but trying my luck. May I check what type of wood you used for this. Thank you!!!
Hi Vanathi, thank you for your question. I am not sure where you are located, but I will show you a couple of options (europe/USA) for what you could use. But, truth be told, any plywood will work. I chose the one I did simply because it can be seen on the side (it is .6cm thick) and I wanted it to look smooth without blemishes. With that said, even with normal plywood, you can sand the sides down for the same effect.
Here is the one I have used, which I did buy from Bauhaus

Here is one in the US

They are just examples and I would never pay that much for some backing..
Whatever you decide to do, please let me know, I want to see for sure what others do to create their puzzles for the world to see
@@davepuzzled thank you for the tips dave!!
I made the same puzzle wow
How did it turn out? Do you love it like I love mine?
@@davepuzzled yes, i love it. It’s perfect.
@@elizabethhernandez5709 awesome
❤the video. I have noticed you don’t use glue directly on the topside like a lot of people to preserve over time.
What’s your professional advice on that?
Hi, thank you for the great question! I did not glue the front only because I didn`t have puzzle glue and I was not sure what would happen with the glue I was using, as in ,would it damage the colors .
My advice is find and use puzzle glue and coat it well on the front. You can always add glue to the back to stick it to the board as I did. Also, if you want an extra shiny finish, you could also coat it in lacquer but I would be sure to coat it with the puzzle glue first to protexct the surface.
Maybe I will do a video on this topic, thank you for the good ides :)
@@davepuzzled thank you so much for reply
@@AM-pc3ydmy pleasure… best of luck
Recently, Joe Rogan and Elon Musk agreed. LOVE is always the answer:)
If we are doing everything with love, then we cannot possible go wrong
"Easy way"
Not if you dont have the tools in this video.
That is very true... I suppose in a case like that you need to find someone who could cut the board for you and drill the holes. Sorry.
DIY shops or a timber yard will cut plywood to size for you at no cost. Pick up some budget sandpaper while you're there and give it a light sand by hand.
A very basic wheel brace will mean you can easily pre-drill four holes for the screws.
This project is still easy - irrespective of whether you have power tools or not. Some woodwork purists even run an entire workshop full-time with _zero_ power tools.
Victimhood is one helluva drug... 🤍
The annoying typing sound was unnecessary. Especially when no words are being displayed on screen.
I am sorry you didn’t like the music … the typing is actually part of the music created by the amazing @Wintergatan… also, I just didn’t think words were necessary, sorry you didn’t enjoy that as well…
I hope you at least enjoyed the video
happy puzzling !!
@davepuzzled if you want to use better music with your videos try the music group Two Steps From Hell who's motto is Music Makes You Braver. They do Epic also referred to as Movie Trailer Music.
Thanks for the advice… I like the music I picked, again I’m sorry you do not. Best wishes!
“Better” music lol does the world also turn around you? I really hope you improve your manners because this way won’t get you far through life. Shame on you this man is creating useful content. Trashy russel
@@davepuzzled I love the music you chose! 😊 Great video & beautiful puzzle 🧩. And I like the saying you added at the end, “do everything with L💛VE”.
