Wil Strijbos!!!

Oh hell.. too many to choose from... Not really a concise selection but First Cylinder and washer cylinder are looking good and maybe some brass bolts to bring the weight up to make shipping more cost effective.

What choices would be good?

brass bolts??

Did you receive any new letter from Wil? I haven't seen any brass bolts at all in his mails.

I don't understand the cricket boxes that Wil is selling. Are they puzzles or actually meant to hold crickets? An internet urban dictionary search did not clarify the matter for me. They seem like really well made boxed but I need a challenge.

They are designed to hold crickets. Many have a hidden mechanism to open the container.

I'm all for the hidden mechanism but why have such a cool box just for crickets?
Do you put it under your friends bed so he can't sleep until he gets the box open?

Crickets were pets You wouldn't want your pet stuck in an ugly box that anyone could open and set free would you?

So, there was a fire at the anodizing factory the Wil uses. I know it's sad that property was damaged and hopefully no one was hurt. This will obviously cause some delays but I can't help thinking that this means that my recently ordered Lotus puzzle will literally be "ON FIRE" making for a cool story to go with an equally cool puzzle. Maybe they can anodize it red to commemorate the accident.

What? No brass bolts? Maybe I'm thinking bottles!! LOL Where's my head at.

So far I'm thinking Washer and First cylinders and the Aluminium Cross.

Oh I did see some bolts.. just not brass ones

I noticed Wil attached a picture of the Jugo Flower to his latest newsletter because he says he still has a few left. I'm interested in getting one but they are 230 Euros. What do people think of it, is it worth the money??

If you have a spare 230 euros to burn then go for it. It's a nice piece to put on show but personally, I think you'd be better spending the money on something else.
