Re: Rainer Popp - Popplocks

I just sent an e-mail to Rainer, so hopefully he has some left. I didn't get an e-mail from him directly, but saw them on Grand Illusions first. Hopefully the T7 is still available, but I'll still need a T1 to complete my collection.

Well your pocket book is better off this way, trust me. (But I know you will contact Wil ASAP anyway.)

Damn, Just got the latest Strijbos email and fell in love with the newest items and placed my order. Oh well, it's only money.

Crisis averted. When it moves and it shouldn't use duck tape. When it sticks instead of sliding use WD-40!

The best guidance I can give with out spoiling everything is that the two dovetails are mirror images of each other. What you do to one you do the opposite to the other.

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

I started the cylinder but then got silver back and have been working on that. I'm contemplating ordering the washer cylinder or one of the dovetails. I like the dovetails because the seem impossible but ultimately their solution is not as impossible as they seem. The cylinder is giving me a panic ...

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

Can I get some help? I bought both of Wil's cylinders but I'm having trouble with the one without the washer. The top part is stuck and won't turn or pop back up anymore. The balls still roll around in a circle and sometimes the one ball will show up at the bottom hole. Am I on the right track?

Rainer Popp - Popplocks

Has anyone been putting any pressure on Rainer Popp to make some more of those T1-popplocks? They seem like they would be really fun, and an excellent addition to any puzzle collection.
