Here I leave you all a picture of part of my renewed collection. It's the main part, but still many things missing in the pic...

And the video:

Wow, nice collection - I like the huge white 7x1x1 at the bottom right of the picture :lol:

... and also I see that you managed to solve your Qubami!

David Calvo · **Posted:** Thu Apr 29, 2010 3:17 am

hahaha, nice 7x1x1 right?

Yeah, I managed to solve my Qubami right after my flight back from Eindhoven (woooohooo, Eindhoven

). It's a nice puzzle

Kelvin, you have very sharp eyes finding the Qubami at all and knowing that it has been solved!

I met Dave at DCD and was amazed how fast he could solve a 3x3x3, so I was curious to see if he solved his Qubami.

And I have to say, Dave certainly knows how to enjoy the Eindhoven night life ... and the company of beautiful ladies!

He stole my heart ages ago. Such a slick fellow he is! And plays with toys too! Can't ask for more than that can you? Oh wait-I saw Candles! I'm gone! :lol:

Those cases look very good for holding puzzles. What kind of cases are those?

Kapoofta · **Posted:** Thu Apr 29, 2010 7:25 pm

Quite the collection... Could I 'borrow' the collection on terms of not guaranteeing return?

David Calvo · **Posted:** Fri Apr 30, 2010 4:37 am

I have already added the video to the collection.

Thanks to all for the replies and the kind words.

Yes Andreas, it is. I got it in San Francisco, during last year's IPP 29. I got a 4 coloured one as a trade and David Litwin kindly traded it for a 6 coloured one. Thanks David

Framework is from IKEA. It measures 20x60x190 cm, so it's perfect for puzzle-displaying purpouses. Then I got the glass shelved done by a glazier.

It's said in the description of the video I've just uploaded. I have around 700 displayed, but lots of them are not displayed (some boxed ones and a lot of repeated ones)

Sure you can... NOT

. But you are pretty much welcome to visit it when you come to spain. Well of course, all of you are, in fact! Free tickets!

It doesn't look to me like that there are many KO's, if any. In any case, let's not make a topic about a great collection into another KO topic.

They look like Ikea Billy book cases with glass shelves and glass doors. I did the same thing and even added some lighting.

Sorry for the bump, but wow!!! That is one heck of a collection! I wish I had a collection like that.
