Puzzler farmer

This retired farmer from Mineapolis certainly has an interesting way of putting his puzzles together. He has created his own system for laying out the pieces. Using sheets of cardboard he draws a series of squares that are lettered and numbered. Every piece of the jigsaw is placed in a square before Merle starts to put the picture together.
It is a time consuming system and add hours to the process. But, no matter, says Merle. Time is something he has plenty of.  Then, unlike most of us who simply take a completed picture apart and put it back in the box, Merle glues them all together, frames them and hangs as many as he can on the walls. Watch the video and read about him here.
