Rainer Popp calls it the "User Manual" probably for a reason.

On arrival I gave the manual to my girlfriend... she hided it somewhere in the house. Now she could give me subtle hints... when needed, and without spoiling the discovery's
:lol:

A puzzle of this kind and on this level can take months, even years to solve. You can do things wrong in frustration, making it unsolvable even, or damage this expensive puzzle. There is a chance you will never see the end without the "User Manual". I did not want to go this route.

The T11 is solvable without the manual, and it's up to the puzzler itself If he wants to take the entertaining and fun route... or the WAY OF PAIN :twisted:

That is certainly an interesting way of going about it. Is she familiar with the puzzle itself? How would she know what to say as a hint without giving away a step itself, or do the instructions lend themselves to easily be interpreted as 'hints'.

Where do you live? And what is your garage passcode? :D :twisted:

In all seriousness... that is a stunning picture/ collection. Those Berrocals are fantastic as well. You are the man / woman!
