Well just had a look at gordians knot and will order one later. Have seen these or similar and they look fun.
It's a high price tag for the popplocks but my first is so well made I think it's a must to try and get the others. I really wanted a T2 but no longer available
But wish they were
What other puzzles do you recommend?

Re: What other puzzles do you recommend?
Any recommendation on which gordians knot? Or which vendors. Looks like $10 on amazon in the USA.
Got a popplock T3 on the way. Will see how it goes but is tempting to get the others. It's the lack of any new revomazes to work on. Need to keep the mind and fingers busy.
Really liked the dan lock. Will share it with anyone who wants to try it on loan for another puzzle I don't have. Send me a pm.

Re: What other puzzles do you recommend?
Remind me how bad I am at returning people's puzzles....
I think I know what I'm doing next week. Darnit, I was even supposed to personally return one this week, argh!

Re: What other puzzles do you recommend?
My Gordian's Knot came from a little shop in Leamington, it was only £8.99.
It came in packaging like this one: Gordian's Knot
It was really quite stiff to move the pieces initially, but after some use the segments free up a lot
I would go and get a popplock but having just bought a whole load of Hanayama puzzles my puzzle budget for the next few months won't allow it

Re: What other puzzles do you recommend?
I hopefully have a Danlock on the way soon, which I'm really looking forward to trying out as I've heard such great things. But it's going to be months before I can afford any of Rainer Popp's locks. So if there's anyone in the UK who wouldn't mind lending me some I'd be eternally grateful.

Re: What other puzzles do you recommend?
Well I just had the set of 51 of them turn up yesterday from puzzlemaster
There came in 4 promotional boxes (like you get on shop counters) each holding 12 puzzles and then 3 separate... got a fair bit of puzzling ahead of me
For some reason puzzle master don't seem to have ABC so I'll have to get that one seperately
