yermanee Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 As the tittle says. My mobility is limited so the wife has to do the shopping and she can't seem to find Jigsaw Puzzles in the 1000/1500 pcs range. Can walk short distances but I want to avoid going on a wild goose chase. Any help appreciated. Thanks Yermanee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JESSVANPELT Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I would order them on line and have them smiled to your home. I also checked for them a few years back and went everywhere and found nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tropo Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Have you considered doing jigsaws on a computer? Once you get into it you'll never go back to the real thing again. You can change the shape of pieces, number of pieces - use your own photos..., and adjust many other parameters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tropo Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I'll check to see what program I use - haven't done one for years - and get back to you. Just Google jigsaw and you'll find dozens of free programs to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yermanee Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 Thanks guys. I should have mentioned that the reason for my rekindled interest in puzzles is, that I want to get away from my computer and have something to do with my hands other than fondle the wife . Anyway I have some friends coming over next month I'll ask them to bring me some. Thanks again Yermanee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttthailand Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 You may want to check the law as they may be illegal to play.... TIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I was going to suggest the toy shop in Rama Four in BKK - they have a couple of shelves of them . They appear to be part of a chain group of toy shops and i suspect it could have been Toys 'r us and as Troppo said there is one in Central . Jigsaw puzzles seem to be popular with Thais so they must be other places to find them too. Just don't do as some of them do , after completion, go and frame them and hang on the wall as i have seen occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the puzzle is big, and predominantly sky or grass, I can understand the need to frame it as you can't bear to break it up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
