I like to glue my puzzles together after i complete them. I use puzzle glue and glue the front of the puzzle,but it seems kinda flimzie. Is it safe to turn my puzzle over (after i've glued the front) and glue the back or will it stick to the paper if i glue it that way. I've also thought about using the rubber stamp glue (whatever it is called),but i'm not so sure about that either....Is there any glue out there that you know that works really well,and if so how to you glue it to ensure that it works fantasticlly.

Keep using the puzzle glue, it is made for puzzles obviously. But yes, after you use the glue on the front side of the puzzle and it is completely dry, turn it over and glue the back side. It will reinforce the puzzle much better. Just make sure the puzzle is completely dry before you turn it over to glue the back and vice versa. Good luck!

Do your puzzle on a big piece of stiff cardboard. When it's finished, cover it with another piece pf cardboard and quickly flip it over. Glue the back, let it dry, and then put on some plain paper. Use your cardboard to flip it back over, and glue the front. Now it will be glued on both sides.

What I do is glue the front, let it dry, then flip it over and cover the back side with duct tape. It makes the puzzle a bit stronger plus there's no glue on the back to make it sticky.

yes, i always glue the back. When you do make sure the front is 100% dry and flip it over. I have to put wax paper under the top of the puzzle (dry part) and wax paper on the back (face up) after the glue is ALMOST dry and set weight (i.e. cutting board or books) because it will start to bend! Good Luck!
