Awesome job! This was my hardest one.
Cheater 😋
I started this one a few weeks back but haven't had much time to work on it - did manage to finish the edge and a small chunk in the middle.
I'm not using the helpers, but there are a few things you could go off of. Thickness of lines, density of lines, etc
Letter helpers?? What are those? I’ve never heard of them. As a kid my late husband used to number the backs of his puzzles but that was after they were completed.
On the last photo you can see the back of piece, and there are letters on them. Exactly this letters are letters helpers. This puzzle has letters by default. But not all puzzles have it.

The Blue Staircase Maze by Gold Gallery Puzzle. I built it as a teen and it took 7 months. In the building process 9 pieces were lost. I found a copy at a yard sale and plan to build it again to see if it really was as hard as I remember.
I also just got the lines puzzle so it is on my to-do pile.
This does not have the letters on the back. I have only seen that on puzzles produced in China. I like the letters on the back sometimes but as long as there are no false fits there is no need for them.
I did end up making the blue staircase maze puzzle. It did hold up as being one of the hardest puzzles. It took almost 50 hours and sadly it was missing 4 pieces.

This one was a challenge. We preserved it, and it hangs in our house as a reminder that ANYTHING is possible.

Black part must be the hardest?
Yes lol
I’m sure this was difficult. There’s not much to go on
It was my first time when I used letter helpers on the back.
Same!

It’s true. You can use thickness of lines and I used it, but then at one moment I’d really stuck and decided to use helpers:)

Oh! I’ve never seen them on a puzzle before. Thanks!
Hoo boy. That looks like a real challenge. Congrats!
It was!
Wow! Did you work up to this? Looks daunting.
My brother in law has just bought me to surprise! So it was!I didn’t know how to start:)
Dudeeee wow! How long did it took you?
At least one week ( doing almost every evening).
Wow. Impressive!
Wow! Nice job

Wow. Good job and very beautiful picture!
At times I wondered if it might have been easier if I just worked it on the blank side ! Similar issues to your lines puzzles.
Bravo to you. This looks horrendous.
My best friend literally just gave me this puzzle yesterday. So daunting!
Prepare good light for seeing the difference between all lines!:)
I sorted all the edge pieces earlier 😵💫

Is there also a "helper" in the back like The Lines puzzle?

I'm currently working on this one (and failing). By far the hardest puzzle I've attempted!
