Re: Livecubes
I picked up some of the 20 mm Livecubes from IPP. They're okay but having made a few shapes with them, including Rich Gain's "Three Easy Pieces" (because I had a copy of Neil's next to me at the time), I've found that its really easy to accidentally un-join pieces. Maybe there's a knack in joining t...

Re: Stickman Reproductions
If the puzzles are the same then they shouldn't need a different pages. I'd just add yourself as another manufacturer and list the quantity you make seperately under the "Limited" section.

Re: 5th french puzzle meeting
Thanks for the write-up (and pictures) of your puzzle meetup. It seems you had quite a range of puzzles there!
I'm impressed with Maurice's 18-piece mini-burr! The notches must be tiny - I'd love to see a close up of the pieces
