Wil's new Puzzle, the Revenge lock
Love this puzzle. But I think it's more fun putting it together than taking it apart. Took me about 20 minutes to open, about 2 hours to put back together. I feel taking it apart, the first time, is more luck, but putting it back together is where you really understand the puzzle.
Thanks again Wil !!

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
I just took it apart, photographed EVERYTHING, and put it back together. It took me 90 minutes to put back together. That dang Wanderer kept wandering. It seems like there was a point where it almost fell apart for me. It was one of the most exciting puzzling experiences I've had in a while. Part of me never wants to take it apart again though.

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
The first time was the worst. You should solve it a few more times. I must have solved it 50 times now. Can have it apart and back together in a couple minutes. I haven't solved it for a few days now. I should see if I can still do it.

Great lock. Now I have to figure out where to put the Wanderer. I wonder how many people will loose the little Wanderer when it falls out of the puzzle. Be careful.. KIRK

I had a difficult time making the wanderer stay where I wanted it to while re-assembling.

Quick question,
Has Wil sent out a June "newsletter" or is May the most recent one?
Thanks

Re: Wil Strijbos!!!
No, you haven't missed anything. Do not expect to get a monthly update - Wil is sending out his updates non-frequently. You can certainly imagine that the puzzles he invents are not designed, built and tested in a month time. Everything he is offering was in the pipeline for quite a while. Anyways, I like the "surprise effect" once there is something new available from him...
