I mentioned 'back to roots Strijbos puzzle' but I do prefer Allards 'Classic Strijbos'

I have to agree its evil and brilliant!

You think you've done it and then in the back of your mind you just know you haven't. It's great because you should have had some good puzzling by now and then it all starts again!

This is truly a Classic from Will.

I fully agree with Nigel and Ali about the Lotus.
What an awesome puzzle, and it even has a dovetail (and lots more) in it!

I picked my copy of the Lotus puzzle up from Wil yesterday (and there I saw he had only a few left, so be quick!). At the same time I bought his very last '2 rings teddy', so don't bother asking him for it.
While I was there I even had a sneak peak at another potential future puzzle, that man just does not stop inventing!

Today I solved the Lotus completely, that was a very bumpy ride (with ups and downs) , and I enjoyed every bit of it!

My copy of "Lotus" arrived today. I think I'm at the stage you describe :D

Edit :
Oh wow :o Now I know why it is called the Lotus !

Should I stop now ? :lol:
