A big thank you to Kevin as he's helped me resurrect my Strijbos Washer Cylinders. They're not completely back together yet but being that they are no longer jammed and completely stripped down is progress enough.

So, THANK YOU, KEVIN!

Hi!
Does Wil still have a mailing list, and if so, how do i join? I'm waiting for my revos and i want to plan what puzzles i'm going to buy next. Wil´s beautiful designs are so appealing!

Cheers!

Any thoughts on the n-ary "Generation Lock"?

Wondering if 160 euro is worth it...

Given the amount of moves and, I wrote it off as an unsolvable puzzle. So for me, no not worth it. 1 hour a day of puzzling would take 518 years to open....

Oh come on, it's less than one cent per 13000 moves!
(For some reason I keep believing it has 'only' 210827008 moves).
Ignore the top half of the sliders and 'solve' the bottom half in about one hour.
(Repeat that once a day for 105 years and you're done ;-)
