on the plus side tho, Wil found one 2 Ring Teddy for me while he was packing for his trip tomorrow so i've reserved a few more puzzles as well, while i was at it (that he'll send when he's back)

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
Guys there's more to find than just a coin!? It took me about 5 mins to work out and 15mins to implement the skills needed.

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
Disassembled my Lotus to fix it. Theoretically I could have put it together without completely taking it apart, but I'm pretty sure I saved myself a ton of time.
Don't close the thing when you open it without everything back in place! I guess that's pretty common knowledge in regards to puzzles, but this one tempts you!!

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
For you guys that have the Dovetail cubes. Are they worth the coin? I was thinking of adding them to my order for the lotus but really shouldnt due to funds!

As in the puzzling aspect they aren't much of a challenge... Nowhere in comparison to the cylinders or the box. They're more of a impossible object.

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
I figured that. I have the cylinders already. Just love the way the cubes look. With shipping being so high i was thinking of just grabbing some but I guess I can grab them at some point in the future. The lotus is what I really wantWill wrote:As in the puzzling aspect they aren't much of a challenge... Nowhere in comparison to the cylinders or the box. They're more of a impossible object.
