Did any of you bought the Ixia Box SD puzzle from Juno? If yes and if you solved it, what did you think of it?
Answer to myself if some of you were interested:
It was a pretty cool one!

About the puzzling aspect there is a slow increase of the difficulty through steps that is very enjoyable. The last step may be a little too difficult and quite random to find

As for me, there are 3 major puzzles to solve, and about 15 moves to do. It took me about 30 minutes to open.

I have to notice it is much more beautiful than what the website photos show and is very nicely finished with some edges cut giving a nice rounded shape.

Another cool thing about it is that there are no banging or spinning intended!!!

One little deceptive point is the bonus puzzle hidden inside which is a good idea but won't really be puzzling if you already managed to open the box.

There is a short cut allowing to open it without doing the main step, but it was not very annoying because I was aware of it.

Whatever, a really nice one! That is exactly why I like SD puzzles that much.

Does anyone know about the Paris pinned wedge key puzzle from Keith Winegar?
I would like to know if it is really a SD puzzle or if the screwdriver provided is the only tool to use to solve it.
Also does anyone has any way to contact Keith Winegar?

Try this: http://mechanical-puzzles.com/paris-pin ... ey-puzzle/

Says the screwdriver is just to remove the packing strips, and wont help otherwise....
