Wow, so many mean people. He took the time to make this video and edit and post it on KZread, so that anyone wanting to do the same can see what works for him. I can't see myself going to that much effort. The fact that it wasn't 100% perfectly filmed, or the commentary was a little rambling, he still showed the whole process, the good and the bad, nothing hidden. Most people on KZread are not professionals and they do the best they can, with what they have. Thank you so much for this video. Your personal comments were sweet about the puzzle, and seeing the whole process from start to finish has made me think twice about using this method for my 3000 piece puzzle, since I don't intend to put it in a frame afterwards.

Thank. you so much! Very helpful information. Just what I needed. I especially appreciate the tip to apply a final layer of Mod Podge around the edges of puzzle and in one direction. I've watched several video clips on glueing completed puzzles and these two tips were several that were new to me. Appreciate that you took the time to share them!

Thank You.........did one before w/ these directions, and it turned out great :) Now, the "Boss" thinks it's time to do two more - so glad I found this again - lol

You did great my friend and pay no mind to the ones saying to slow or you took forever. That's the point of these videos is to be thorough but to have fun as well not just to rush right through it. Well done!

What I do is use two large poster board taped together and use the mod pudge with an old credit card. I don’t care if the boards gets messy one cost a dollar. Never thought to do the back! Appreciate the video.

I enjoyed this video. The two things I did differently a) used a craft board as it was of correct dimensions and 2) I taped the aluminum together as well as both pieces of waxed paper. I enjoyed the idea that you can take off extra glue with your finger or paper with a dab of water on it. Well done.

Omg 😱 People are just so negative! I really liked the calm and firmly instructions 😍 You don't have to gas your puzzle or spray it or set it on fire. Kids can do this with there parents, nice and easy. Loved the video 😊❤ Kind regards from Denmark 🇩🇰

:-) LOL I read your comment about "calm" and wondered "What the heck is she talking about?? That wasn't calm!". And then I discovered that I was watching it at 1.5x speed! !! LOL! BTW yes, terrific video!

This procedure worked great on my puzzle. Only change I made is I added frog tape to hold down the foil/wax paper so puzzle would slide on my table. I was very pleased with this video. Thanks.

Tip: When you're sliding the foil under the puzzle, tape the far edge of the foil in place after it's started so it won't bind up on you, and just work the puzzle over the rest of the foil.

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. I'm very happy with the end product.

Thanks man. Eased my mind before going in.

Thanks! Exactly what i was looking for.

Thank you Wolfgang,enjoyed the voice as well as easy to follow instructions.

Perfect! Thanks for the tutorial 👍 Was exactly what I was looking for

better off to use a card and spread the glue around with the card, then once its dry get mod podge acrylic gloss spray and simply give it a coat of that. You wont see ANY brush strokes this way and the spray ensures perfect even coat

Omg thank you so much for sharing this because I had mod podge matte so now I’m going to purchase glossy. 😊 I put adhesive sheets on the back of my puzzle and it’s holding pretty good but I’ll get to the front with that mod Podge

Slide the wax paper under first then you can use that to slide it and the puzzle on top of the foil. You only have to fiddle with getting one layer past the puzzle pieces

Thank you soooo much, I followed your tutorial and ended up very happy with my framed puzzle.

Kool and the scratching was awesome too lol

Thanks Wolfgang, that was very instructive to me. I liked the rithm, the description you made! I feel now to prepared to do mine.

Thanks going to attempt this with my husband, we love doing puzzles together! Only question I have is what if I use matte mod podge will it ruin the front of the puzzle. I saw you used gloss so very curious. By the way, I don't think it was slow at all!!? You did it step by step and showed us without just doing it and adding a few words in thank you!

Matte won’t ruin it. It’ll just give it a Matte appearance, which is dull and not shiny. Matte is a very good option if you hang the puzzle in an area where sunlight could shine on it and cause a glare.

You people (for the most part) are mean! I am glad you showed me the details because I have a puzzle that I want to do this with and it’s the first time for me. Thank You!

Thank you!!! This was absolutely so helpful!

Beautiful job!!

mod podge is water-soluble so you can soak your brush with water first and it makes the clean up easier.

❤❤❤Thank You So Much .. nice 👍🏾 Easy Very Simple instructions just what I was Looking For🙏🏾

Beautiful.

I just did this puzzle about a month ago. It was really hard with all the different colors.

Hey how much time went past when you made your first mod podge layer on the front?

Buy a cheap clear shower curtain and cut out a size larger than the puzzle. No extra time spent picking paper off of the edges. Also reusable

@ttennebb815

After I apply a first coat it doesn’t take that long to dry.. after ten minutes you can unstick the curtain from the puzzle if you want. I’ve used wax paper, foil, and other things and this seems to work the best. Wax paper would be my second choice.

How long do you have to wait till the mod podge dries to mod podge the back of the puzzle

Wax paper first and then just sliding the wax paper with the puzzle over the foil is faster if using both. Vs trying to get the wax between the puzzle and foil

Thank you for helping me

Thanks. Helpful.

i bought foam boards from dollarama so i can flip the puzzles with ease. when going to glue, i just flip it upside down,sandwiched between the boards. then lift board that was coverig the bottom, place wax paper, put foam board back on and flip it back over!

Thank You. That is very helpful

There is a Mod Podge Pizzle glue. Have u used that? Any difference?

Nice video.

That so cool, I’m gonna do that soon once I get mod podge,but quick question what do you do once u glue the puzzle, did you frame them or u just let it be in somewhere else safe?

so first thing put on wax paper before play with puzzle?

How did you find a frame for this puzzle? I just finished a Thomas kinkade beauty and the beast puzzle and it’s just a tad bit longer then the frame. Do you trim the puzzle or buy a bigger frame?

I think when I did this I trimmed the puzzle just a little bit with an xacto knife, but you could also get a bigger frame and just have a border around the puzzle.

If I spent a tremendous amount a time on a building a puzzle, I'd certainly spend the money and have it mounted and framed. We just did The Apocalypse Horses and spent 160 hours assembling. Well worth having it dry mounted and framed. Years ago while remodeling a kitchen the homeowners were puzzle building enthusiast and they had an entire wall in their basement covered with puzzles. It was pretty impressive.

Be so much easier if you just take the two sheets and tape them then slide it under... that’s what I’ve been doing

I think it might have been easier when you flip the puzzle over to flip it on new paper so it didn't have such a sticking effect because the end trimming was a disaster ... but thanks for the video

So you do the foil first and then slide the paper under again. Does that mean the wax paper is on the botttom or the foil on the bottom

What i do is get cardboard from dollar general and do my puzzle on there so i wont destroy it then i modge podge it and let it dry overnight

I would have glued a thin foam board to the back it mounts better in a frame

So is the puzzle sitting on wax paper or the foil

So do you cover the puzzle twice with hog pog

I just did this. Looked like I ruined my puzzle. Thank God I did it first on a puzzle I don’t care as much about. Now that it’s dry, it looks pretty good. Not thrilled about the brush strokes but whatever.

The bottle info says 30 days to completely cure!

I use Elmer's glue and it turns out just the same.

What you could do is tape the wax paper to the tin foil then slide the puzzle over it

Mod Podge bottle says it will take 4 weeks for this to completely cure. Does anyone have any experience with that or opinions about that? Does it really take 4 weeks for this? That is a long long time.

It is best to soak the puzzle in gas after gluing. The chemical reaction seals it better. Then if your using a frame you want to get a frame that is 1/8" smaller. The chemical reaction with the gas will shrink the puzzle, making the seal tighter, and with it shrinking you put the puzzle in the 1/8" smaller frame. Here is the important part, your gonna wanna face your puzzle on the North side and with the gas still wet and the puzzle in the frame your gonna wanna drop a match on that bad boy. The match will make the puzzle heat up some. It will expand to the frame and get stuck. You will need a match, a finished puzzle: that required extensive man hours to complete, about a gallon of Unleaded Gas, a blanket to signal your wife thay you are doing fine, a compass, a video camera, a male African elephant in musk, some marshmallows, and finally some aluminum foil for security.

Exactly, Dennis Hill -- if you can't explain something this simple in 5 minutes, you can't expect many people to watch it...

Why can't you just glue a piece of paper or cardboard over the back and not put the mod podge over the picture.
