Very nice. Good to see you managed to get an account.

That is quite possibly the most beautiful collection I've ever seen - your puzzles are amazing.

Beautiful puzzles! I love the metal 5x5. Never saw one like that before.
What are those two brass things that look like a cannon and an engine block?

Yeah those are scaled engines... that actually do work.

Wow, those are cool! A little to rich for my blood tho. I can't believe they have a 4-cylinder engine. And that ferris wheel is cool. I can't imagine sitting there playing with the thing too much tho, but they sure are a work of beauty.

Amazing collection and my grandfather builds scale engines, some run on compressed air, some on gas.
This is made out of an old air compressor.

Also, do the metal puzzles turn well?

Ah, how beautiful is the solid metal 5x5x5!
Is it brass, copper, ...?

Yh,It is brass.

In this case WD 40 is a good lube

Where did you get it at? Do they come different metals?

He is a machinist, I believe he made all these beautiful things himself.

These puzzles are beautiful, and the fact they're made from metal only makes it better.

Ooh, very elegant collection!

When I opened the page, I only saw the first picture and thought you had arranged lump sugar to look like puzzles.

amazing

A wonderful collection, I am very envious,

and i do believe that the 3x6x6 came from here: http://www.shapeways.com/model/63132/Cubic%203x3x6.html

though i may be wrong.

The two middle layers of the 3x3x6 look 3D printed (I believe he uses a SD300) and the outer layers look like they were taken from a C4Y cubic 3x3x5. So I don't think that's Adams 3x3x6 design.

I'm pretty sure those parts didn't come from an SD300. They look just like the parts in the earlier pictures (like this one) which are undoubtedly FDM, judging from the surface texture.

But I agree with the assessment, it looks like a clever extension on the 3x3x5 by splitting the middle layer.

Well, turns out I was wrong. It was a dimension, sorry.

wow, i love the look of that giant 2x2! How does it turn? well?

i think your referring to a nightmare cube
(a bandaged cube trim than extended into a 2x2)

wd40 wouldnt work very well for long...you would be better off using a fine charcoal powder as this is used in brass locks for lubrication ...have used it myself and it does work

The chinese archway is an ancient intelligent toy based on Kongming Lock.

WOW!!! This is *very* interesting!

Thanks for sharing it. Do you have more information about this?
