Troubleshooting

Missing Pieces

While rare, if you discover missing pieces, carefully re-check the box and surrounding area. Contact the manufacturer, Birlinn Ltd., for potential replacement options, though this is not always guaranteed for jigsaw puzzles.

Pieces Don't Fit Well

Ensure you are working on a flat surface and that the pieces are oriented correctly. Examine the interlocking tabs and slots for any damage or manufacturing defects. Sometimes, forcing pieces can damage them, so gentle fitting is advised.

Difficulty Identifying Piece Orientation

Look for the subtle signs of the printed image on the face of the piece and the plain cardboard backing on the reverse. Some pieces may have slightly different finishes on their edges, which can also indicate orientation.
