You guys might not know this, but Mr. Dawson is starting to make puzzleboxes. I'm sure he is a ways off from showing pics to the public, but I have seen few pics of a prototype, and the way I see it, I have some competition on the horizon.

I don't think anyone can compete with Roby at his level.
Also, just to clarify, I do not "make" puzzle boxes, but I simply "design" them.

Ha I win!!!!! Guess what arrived in the mail for me today. Yes, there were some plants I had ordered and of course some bills, but WOW!!! I got a MakDaw origional puzzlebox crafted by Yasutoshi Makishi. And I didn't even order one. It is a most wonderful puzzlebox, well designed and crafted - and it took me about 50 minutes to figure out (which just happens to be my attention span when it comes to solving puzzles).
In all, a very nice puzzlebox Matt, especially for your first official design. I take my hat off to you. Keep up the good designs. Dude, we will have to work on a project together in the future.

Robert, I do not want any pictures of it up for a while... there are still some people who need to be surprised.

Actually, I am already working on a variation of one of Matt's ideas. My projects tend to wonder, but originally it was a Matt concpet that I started out with.
