ITT: General collectibles / Random objects you keep as dear.
>>3091 That's pretty cool.
The entire collection finally in one place. >>3092 It really is.
>>3108 You've got a really awesome puzzle collection.
The first mod I've made (only covered it in wood really, but still). Might add varnish later. >>3109 Thanks.
>>3114 Pic during the making of.
Testing 123
>>3114 Finished.
Wooden 3x3
Gan365 Air. EXCEDINGLY fast cube at its peek configuration, even more than >>3072.
Carl Hoff's Bubbloid 4x4x5. It popped out at the very first turn, on the bus. After some adjusting and lubbing it gets much better.
Meffert's Nautilus puzzle. Very pretty.
Tuttminx (by Very Puzzle). While lubbing it, I broke an internal piece but managed to fix it (otherwise it'd be USD 54 down the drain). Stickers are DIY, so I tried to make a gradient with them. If anyone's interested, the main geometry is what you'd call the Goldberg Polyehedron G(1,1)... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldberg_polyhedronPost edited on 22nd Sep 2016, 10:32am
>>3122 Trippy!
Carni Chaak 3x3.
>>3159 Just thought I'd give you a heads up, the latch cube is back in stock on hknow. Since it's more of a rarer puzzle now, I figured you may want to buy it. I'll be posting my own collection once the card reader I ordered comes in.
You might find this interesting.
>>3255 very nice, thank you for sharing
little puzzle dump... Wooden Oskar's Treasure Chest.
>>3434 when solved this opens up?
Multi-color Ghost Cube.
RGB 3x3 cube
12 Monks a.k.a. Hexsticks wooden puzzle burr (Stewart Coffin).
Rainbow Magic Puzzle Ball
Gan356 Air Macaron Purple 3x3 Limited Grand Master Edition. My favourite 3x3.
Fidget cube, for the heck of it.
I've yet know the proper name of this one.
SMAZ Time Machine. One of my TOP. /dump
>>3435 Yup.
We missed you, puzzle-anon.
>>3445 Thanks.
>>3443 I had to look for a video of this contraption because I didn't understand how to solve it without it taking me a hundred billion years. It looks insanely tough. Is this the hardest puzzle you have acquired so far?
>>3454 >Is this the hardest Not at all, no. Although very impressive, it's just a 2x2 with dials that, until the very last one (that needs a series of algorithms to permute the numbers in order), can be solved pretty mindlessly in like 15 minutes total or so. Among the hardest stuff I've got is probably >>2885 for twisties and >>2930 in general.
Tricolor mirror cube.

Rose Pink 3x3 Qiyi The Valk Mini
Rose Pink Valk Mini & Macaron purple Gan Air

>>3502 That looks like a gift you should give to someone who you'd like to commit suicide. Even the guy in the video went on suicide watch with a single hand twist.
>>3503 I haven't scrambled it yet either. I wanna take some precautions first.
QiYi Pentacle Cube. Nice looking cube, specially for satanic tastes. A pain in the ass to scramble though, and I figure the solve will be similarly tedious.
>>3519 So, how long did it take, puzzle-kun?
QiYi stickerless Time Machine. Good for its dirty cheap price. >>3568 I just solved it for the first time, assisted by a tutorial. It took me about ~45 minutes. Worst part was the beginning, solving the 2x2 corners; the rest was all fast, very intuitive and fun.
Mad in China, by Jean-Claude Constantin (solved).
This one is very rare and took me years to find it for a reasonable price: 'Biaxe', by Timur Evbatyrov. 3D-printed on commission by Evgeniy Grigoriev (grigorusha), through HKnowstore. Another absolute jewel of the collection. Constellation Six Family VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQUFGA9rraQPost edited on 12th Aug 2018, 7:25pm

>>3662 This looks pretty cool. I wonder how long the gloss finish would hold out before scratches start being noticeable.
>>3663 Indeed: many of these are meant for collecting purposes, not to be solved again and again. I just solved it once (pretty easy) and that's about it.
>>3662 Any new puzzles to share, puzzle-kun?
This caught my eye at the store. A blank and transparent jigsaw puzzle. Idea is you not only don't know the orientation, but also which face is the correct side. Box labeled it as impossible, so I took that as a challenge.
