It *was* just about as difficult as I figured it would be.
I was really hoping though to get it made into a 500 or 1000 piece puzzle.
Same sized pieces; only a lot more of them.
Nobody it seems does that right now.
The 308 piece 11x17 puzzle seems to be as big as you can get made ... That I've
found, anyway.  A bit pricey too; unless you order them in quantity.

Heh, heh.   ;-}
I can sympathize.
That self-referential puzzle I mentioned was a bear too.
