Thanks,
I was under the impression (incorrectly) that he did a monthly stock update type email. I completely understand that new items do not come out that frequently.

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
So I did it. I placed my first (of most likely many) order from Wil. I will soon be the proud owner of First Box and The 3 Circles (had to get more than one to justify shipping of course). The greatest puzzle of all seems to be how to not go broke
I wanted to order everything, but was able to show restraint. For now.

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
Got my wanderer a few days ago. My Father, who isn't a puzzler, got his hands on it while I was playing with the heavy metal triangle. All of a sudden he's gotten it out of the frame. I wasn't watching and he couldn't tell me what he had done. So my first task was getting it back in the frame in the starting position.
Now, that first task is now repeatable. That hasn't helped me open the lock yet.
I think I understand some of the locks other behaviors and can reliably get it to do certain things. I'm fairly certain that the wanderer has not shown itself yet.
I've tried a lot of things, but no progress.
Some reviews talk about noticing "something" that helped them. Of course I have yet to notice anything that helps me proceed, not for lack of trying.
What a great puzzle1

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
The Wanderer is a great puzzle, you will enjoy it. I solved it, so if you encounter some problems. You can prvt msg me. I can also recommend some of Wil's other puzzles; his first cross and first cylinder.
His First Box puzzle and new Sweta Cross is in the mail... So I will receive them very soon. Looking forward to it. Wil's puzzles are one of the best, and great designs.
BTW I've just opened my first Blue revomaze puzzle. Awesome!

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
Could someone help me get put on the mailing list? 

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
PM sent. Once you start with just one of Wil's puzzles it is a deep abyss that you can not climb out of, ever. Be careful of what you wish for, puzzle addiction is a real thing, worse that prescription painkillers to quit, and there is no 12 step program either. Hello, my name is KIRK and I am a puzzle addict.. KIRK

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
The wife already complains! And I "only" own 13 (15 if counting the new Mint and Salmon) metal revomazes.
But a man has to collect something, right?
