Re: Newbie Silver owner checking in!

Interesting. My wife and father teamed up to order me a bronze, silver and gold for my birthday. The bronze and silver came in identical boxes without a label of which is which. After 4 days, she broke down and let me choose one box at random. She gave me the other one. I open it to see the silver s...

Re: Bronze has arrived!

But then she doesn't have her fun anymore...She likes watching me stare at them The funny thing is - once you open them you will be staring (marvelling) at them for months to come :) And I'll still be swearing at them ;) Now because I can't open the boxes, then because I can't open the puzzles ;)

Perhaps start with flowers, breakfast in bed, a handwashed car, or anything else you can do to get enough brownie p...

V-Cube 7 is fun and interesting. V-Cube 6 is one I'm not as fond of. A little fragile for my taste...pops too easily

Re: The DanLock

Okay, Thanks. I've never played with any of the lock puzzles so I wasn't sure. I've been looking to get one sometime soon and was just wondering if this would be a good one to start on. If memory serves, it usually runs around USD$100, which is very good for a good puzzle lock (for comparison, Puzz...

Re: The DanLock

Danlock is a great puzzle. It is actually a real padlock made into a puzzle, not a puzzle that only looks like a padlock. The (simple) Danlock homepage is at: http://sites.google.com/site/danlockpuzzle/ If it is an actual padlock couldn't you just get one from the hardware store? or is there more t...
