Today was a great puzzle day for me, thanks to the RevoClear:
1) I actually SAW myself solving several Revomazes, that was an amazing experience!
2) I assembled the RevoSilver incorrectly (misplaces a gator)... When I found out that 'fatal' mistake I just smiled even wider than I already did, and I calmly unscrewed the pin...

Thanks Neil, this is an awesome must-have item for Revo-Enthousiasts.
With this sleeve in hand, an old idea came back to my mind: 3D printed mazes... Back to the drawing board!

...funny you mentioned that ... I noticed some very funky behaviour when I put the HMv1 core in mine and watched the gator disappear down the plughole... there's a fraction more tolerance on the clear sleeve that lets it roam... :roll: Oops...

Thinking of taking AU00023 in a clear sleeve to the next MPP - should I?

Yes, please. It would be interesting to have a look at (and try out ) a different Gold from mine, but in a clear sleeve ;)

There will be about 8 gold openers there, perhaps....

Plus I bet it looks really good ?

Sounds like a plan Allard! I'd like to see that too. And I doubt you'll be robbing anyone of any fun anyway.

I'd really like to get hold of one of these clear sleeves but I'm not sure whether I'd prefer a smooth sleeve or a ridged one... what have other gone for?

I'll bring my Gold to MPP too then, if others are... in the cutaway sleeve :)

Yeah the gold would be good to see. I currently haven't opened mine, but i've worked out my code so its just the small(?) task of entering it correctly :?

Im gunna pop my Red and have a bash at that beast, get me that pot o' gold!! ;) :lol: :lol:

FYI, I got a clear (i mean't smooth!!) one Chris ;)
