Yep both my dovetails are open

No external tools required on my dovetail..

...Has anyone opened any of the dovetails yet?

I have the convex one and have tried all directions of twist and pull, in all orientations.
I have tried shaking, rattling and rolling it.
Banging it down in every direction doesn't seem to help either (not good for my desk!)
Spinning it around and around also is no help.

Ah, I think you must have the harder one of the two. One of them I can reliably open every time, but the other always takes a few minutes The tolerances are very tight one both or them and I think they look great

Both are sweet as a nut!
Also I do like the nut and bolt!
I know we are off topic but we are all here

I don't post to this thread much but feel I should today!

Whilst not strictly about revomazes alone, we do seem to yatter on about many other puzzles here!

I have just posted my birthday blog post.
No! Not my birthday!!
My blog is 2 years old today - 175 posts and 138,500 page views in that time. A huge amount of work, a huge amount of money and a really HUGE amount of fun. Thank you everyone for reading and here I review my top 5-ish puzzles in my collection which includes a couple of revomazes.
