Chinny,

 That brings your pen total to "to many to count." You should make a simple puzzle box to store them in.
I have a simple puzzle box idea for my pens, but it should only hold about 3-4.

[Chinnomotto]

Matt, got about 15 pens from the swap, woooo hooo

I have a clear alunimium box, which I am making the insides, double layer,  so it more a display box, with notes of who the artists are

Bad news is I won't be making any pens, too steep a learning curve, swap is better

Too many puzzles to conquer anyway, time is limited

You did well at the auction with Makdaw, its a fantastic puzzle, well done  and well deserved matey

Whats next??

[MBD]

Yea, that puzzle did well. Thanks, glad you like it.
who sold it? Was it you?   

I'll probably try to work on an exchange puzzle box for IPP30.

[Chinnomotto]

I thought you sold it, not me, no way

[MBD]

A puzzling mystery indeed.

  I am so happy with my Stephen Ching puzzle that I won, and I am just grinning from ear to ear with the freeby puzzles and pen that were sent to me as well they look great in my puzzle museum. I have been away and today was the first time I really got a chance to check them all out. Thanks to all those that made iit possible. Louis

Could you post some pics of your puzzle museum, when you find the time

[Chinnomotto]

A puzzling mystery indeed.

OK ,whos the DORK that sold Matts Makdaw at Nick Baxters Auction

Ex friend , if I know you

[MBD]

Don't worry about it Stephen, just messing with you. 
It should buy a few nice fishing poles for the Galveston house, though.

How are your IPP 29 puzzles coming along?

[cubefan]

Hi mdb

I can only speak about my exchnage puuzle for IPP 29:
I cut 1800 pieces and had 21600 edges to chamfer;
yesterday I finished all the pieces; now I have only to glue the acryl pieces for 120 lids for the acryl-boxes , then print the labels and then let`s hope I`ll be ready just in time to send the parcel to IPP 29

happy puzzling
Utahfan Bernhard

After having traslated what means pulling one's leg, there is a latin proverb also: Excusatio non petita, accusatio manifesta: not asked apology means guilt.... 
Not in my case, of course....

EDIT sorry Bernhard I was writing at the same time...

Maybe, who knows, next year I will come to IPP, is it in Berlin is not it?
