he's referring to the original manufacturing firm which made the Black for Chris.
Merc was the company that made the Black V2 obsession

Thanks Smiteo. Sorry for being so slow...

I still dont get the original question though.

No, the name of the first engineering firm wouldn't be obvious to chyron since he joined the forum the year after MERC was making puzzles for Chris. Chyron may not even realize there was a previous firm, although I think he does now.

I can't remember that first firms name either. I'd have to check a lot of old posts to see if it was ever identified. Too bad they didn't sign the core or something so we would remember their name... :roll:

i dont think the engineering company was ever shared, buy i did have the name of the engineer who made the black given to chris (was in a green sleeve i believe). I'd have to do some digging, but even then id only have a first name.

Well, I was able to dig up not one, but two names associated with that first engineering firm. Adrian was the one that designed the Black V1. Apparently someone named Don was involved too. One of Chris's posts mentioned that Adrian is, or was, a member of this forum. I couldn't find a user name that might be his. At the time, Chris wrote that he was lucky to have such a great firm making his puzzles. Times change, I suppose.

Yep I remember Adrian. Never heard of Don though. I never discovered Adrian's user name either.
