Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

First cylinder already open. Very nice puzzle. I think I was a little lucky. It felt like that,because I only partly understood what was going on. Great to see the mechanism of this one! Tomorrow I will start on the Sweta Cross. That looks much more intrigueing than I thought from the pictures. What...

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!

Received the first cylinder and a sweta cross today. I’ll try to solve these before starting on my next maze. Ordered these through a third party reseller. Did anyone get the newsletter recently? I only had one email last october, shortly after signing up. Nothing since then. Did he forget just me, ...

Re: Physical problems from mazing. How to prevent?

Thanks for your reply. I’m not sure if there are any more tips to give. I was wondering how many more of us had these problems in the way I had them, but I guess they would have reacted already. It’s likely that I am an unlucky outlier, and that for most of us fortunately it isn’t that bad. I really...

Re: Physical problems from mazing. How to prevent?

I never claimed that I wasn’t warned about this. I also said I do NOT think there needs to be a (extra) warning on the box. It’s not that I didn’t realize this could happen. Indeed I started this thread because I WAS aware you should watch out for overdoing it. I thought I was being careful and taki...

Re: Physical problems from mazing. How to prevent?

So thanks Kirk and thanks McParty for making it clear that indeed, it seems that I AM the only one that doesn’t understand that you need to take a break when your hand hurts... It’s exactly as ghxost says, when you are so close to the end, your regular 30min sessions can turn into 60 minutes. I had ...

Re: Where to buy wooden Revomaze stand?

https://messenfotos.ml/e874twclqltj.jpg Received my wooden stand today. Not the original style, which I would have liked even more, but a great looking stand nonetheless. I think it has a great look and feel. Quality is good. It looks really well made, and fits and holds a revomaze well. I do think...

Re: Physical problems from mazing. How to prevent?

Revomaze injuries, this is priceless. ... Just kidding around, I am glad you added the second bit about kidding around, but I still have a hard time laughing about this. I don’t think there needs to be a warning on the box, but most of us could use tips on how not to hurt our hands revoing. I have ...

Re: Physical problems from mazing. How to prevent?

I am a physician in real life but by no means an expert in this area. Hope this was helpful. Actually, I am as well. In my line of work I don’t see any tenosynovitis, so I had to look it up. Thanks for your advice. I hope it goes away without needing the steroids. I was really curious to see if mor...

Physical problems from mazing. How to prevent?

I have a serious question. I guess we have all had a certain degree of cramps or hand pain when mazing for too long at a time. I have had my share of that, but that always passes quickly and completely after taking a break. After finishing bronze though, I noticed I have pain at the base of my thumb...
