Training Techniques To Improve Speed Puzzling 

Great video, these are some really good tips! I'm debating if I want to try speed puzzling myself, my normal style is very relaxed and slow so it'd definitely be an interesting change. Best of luck in the competition!

There is a Value vs non value video on Lean made simple channel. I just think about how it is related to speed puzzling. What is the real value? Normally there are some standard process steps, unboxing, flipping, sorting groups based on edge/non edges or pattern or color. Then assembling small groups, or makeing first the edge. A lots of trial, rotating.... In the ideal world, every piece is flipped, and we know the exact location (no need to lookfor on the image), and can move there. This is the value. What are wastes here? finding, trial, put back, trial again, move small assembled parts, moving flipped and grouped pieces because we have too much inventory and we dont have enough space on table....😀

I’m definitely not a speed puzzler, maybe some day! Great ideas.

All very good ways of how to do puzzles. It's always a good idea to have a variety of methods that can then be applied to a puzzle. I hope you will consider each of you moving round when doing the team event, so that each person gets to see a different part of the puzzle. Good luck with the competition and enjoy yourself.

Good video. You will be great! Thanks for the shout out.

Great strategy you have. ❤ Will the Canadian puzzling competition be videoed for you tube? I hope so!

Very good! A lot of awareness you have of what to do and a methodical approach. Bravo! I don't speed but i do use these for mental agility. I would suggest having a prop for the box so you and all your team mates can see the image easily. Also figure out how to open the sealed box quickly 😊

I don’t remember where I saw the tip but one tuber suggested building many 1k pc puzzles so that when you do a 500 it will seem small and more manageable.
