Weekly Update #6 - 7/8/26

https://www.thepuzzleworkshop.uk/post/w ... ugust-2026

Thank you for your continued patience, loyalty, and support.
Here is the latest update from the workshop, covering production progress and current developments.

VAULTMAZE and Other Projects

There are no changes to report this week.
Design and production planning are ongoing, and we’ll share further updates as soon as progress is made.

Next week, our brass bar order will arrive. This will cover the next 40 brass maze cores.
Expect to see more brass mazes leaving soon!

Leaving the Workshop

This week, we have sent out:

• 1 Aqua Lite in aluminium

• 4 Blue Lites in aluminium

• 5 Green Lites in aluminium

• 3 Grey Lites in aluminium

• 4 Purple Lites in aluminium

• 1 Red Lite in aluminium

• 1 Red Lite in brass

• 1 Bronze Lite in aluminium

• 4 Tool Kits

• 1 1.5 mm hex screwdriver

Customs Information Improvements

This week, Rachel has reviewed the shipping and customs information included on the customs forms and researched the best way to handle international orders.

This has included narrowing down the customs codes for the REVOMAZE puzzle family and checking and updating the descriptions to allow for a smoother transition through customs.

We believe this has already had an impact, as international orders that left HQ last week have made their way through the customs departments of several countries without issue.

International shipping is still reduced for a little while longer while we double-check that everything is progressing as it should be, but it’s looking good from our side.


General Update

While the machine was cutting cores this week, Chris has been production planning for the coming weeks.

Chris has all the material required for next week’s machining and is planning to visit the anodisers to collect the latest batch of sleeves.

This batch includes the sleeves for the Limited Edition Set of four mazes. Provided they are all defect-free, we’ll be able to send out Batch 1, followed shortly by Batch 2.

This means Chris will be away for two days, but the workshop will be left in Charlie’s capable hands.

Work on Gold continues. Chris and Charlie are adding the final touches and conducting internal testing before the first cores are sent to our testers for review.


Our Commitment

We remain committed to transparency, quality, patience, community, and progress.

We’ll keep sharing honest updates, maintaining our standards, giving every puzzle the time and care it deserves, supporting our community, and building something special together.

Thank You

Thank you for being part of the REVOMAZE journey.

The best is ahead.

Thank you for your continued patience, loyalty, and support.

Here is the latest update from the workshop on production progress and current developments.

VAULTMAZE & Other Projects

This week, Charlie has continued the design work on the remaining VAULTMAZE rings.

There are no changes to report on repairs this week.

The brass bar ordered to fulfil the next 40 brass mazes arrived on Monday, along with our replacement 1.5 mm cutter.

Leaving the Workshop

Mazes will still be shipped this week, with orders due to leave the workshop on Saturday.
Due to staff availability, mazes are currently being picked, assembled, and packed, so there isn’t a final shipping list to share just yet.

We’ll provide a supplementary update on Monday with details of what has left the workshop.

Small Updates

This week contains a variety of smaller updates behind the scenes at HQ.

Chris has made the decision to consolidate all REVOMAZE items in one place. Rather than using an off-site storage unit and making journeys to collect and drop off items, everything will soon be stored at HQ for greater convenience.

The order of operations for machining Lites has also changed slightly.

Diamond cutting is now being completed before the cuts for the O-rings, allowing for a higher degree of accuracy. Previously, the cuts were found to be slightly out of specification, so this change should help improve consistency.

Workshop Update

This week has seen a small but much-needed improvement to the workshop.

Due to the extreme heat currently affecting the area, temperatures inside the workshop had reached around 34°C (93.2°F).

At these temperatures, the compressor was close to shutting down, which would have caused downtime in machining.
To prevent this and improve ventilation and cooling, Chris has installed a larger fan in the workshop door.
This has already made a significant difference, bringing the workshop temperature down to around 25°C (77°F).

Chris and Charlie have also discovered that they can program the machine using a separate device. This means they can work from a cooler environment while allowing the machine to continue operating uninterrupted.

Our Commitment

We remain committed to transparency, quality, patience, community, and progress.

We’ll keep sharing honest, regular updates, never compromise on craftsmanship, give every puzzle the time and care it deserves, put our community at the heart of what we do, and continue building something special together.

Thank You
