Does anybody puzzle?
I'm not talking about 500 or 1,000, I'm talking about 3,000-40,000 (

One of the few actual 'requirements' I have in a future home is the ability to dedicate a room (basement?) to puzzling, and then being able to create some sort of station
Most of these larger puzzles can be broken down into components. 18,000 pieces are 4 bags of 4,500. 24,000 are 6 bags of 4,000, etc.
So, it's feasible that a station which can support, let's say, 6,000 would be sufficient. Some of the 5,000 piece ones are 60" x 40", and different brands vary by several inches for both dimensions. I know that most standard boards or 'table' setups can be 96" x 48" max, which is already getting rather large to put in the middle of a room. Then factor this with what would be a dream setup: somehow suspended by a pulley system, able to rotate maybe 45 degrees so I don't bend over as much, custom lights to highlight dark areas, etc., and we're quickly getting into a project that is expert level
Problem is, I have no idea how to woodcut or do anything with tools as I've never taken a shop class
Ideas?
