Check the nine shared letters

The three across words and three down words share nine tiles. An across answer needs to agree with each down answer at its first, third and fifth letters.

  • Top row MOWER, position 1, meets left column MOTOR, position 1: both need M.
  • Top row MOWER, position 3, meets middle column WIELD, position 1: both need W.
  • Top row MOWER, position 5, meets right column RADIO, position 1: both need R.
  • Middle row TREND, position 1, meets left column MOTOR, position 3: both need T.
  • Middle row TREND, position 3, meets middle column WIELD, position 3: both need E.
  • Middle row TREND, position 5, meets right column RADIO, position 3: both need D.
  • Bottom row RODEO, position 1, meets left column MOTOR, position 5: both need R.
  • Bottom row RODEO, position 3, meets middle column WIELD, position 5: both need D.
  • Bottom row RODEO, position 5, meets right column RADIO, position 5: both need O.

The 21 tiles contain A × 1, D × 2, E × 3, I × 2, L × 1, M × 1, N × 1, O × 5, R × 3, T × 1, W × 1. Count each shared tile once when checking whether an entered board can reach this solution.

These checks follow from the six verified answer words. A swap sequence depends on the letters and colours currently on your own board; enter those in the Waffle solver.
