He just told you what SAGE was.

i know what sage means, i just want to know why he said it

He said it because he thought that swordsman kirby's post was unnecessary, so he saged it.

Firstly it was Rick who said "..." and Swordsman who "SAGE". I believe he was actually "SAGE"ing the posts above Rick's, the ones by Scary Cube.

Sorry for my typo's and misunderstandings. I was mainly trying to explain the concept of saging a post, since scary cube missed the whole sage problem

Edit: I just went back, and reread the thread. I definetly think he was saging the TRIPLE POST by scary cube.

hehe... srry... i guess that was a little overboard... hehe...

I finally has time to take some pictures of my Custom Rubik's puzzles

This is the rest of my custom puzzle collection. I cannot remember who made some of the puzzles (some I do but they are not as good quality asthe others shown). If you remember selling me or giving me one of them, let me know,

Impressive, Oscar, and nicely presented (with the names).
I downloaded your pictures for future reference. Thank you.

What a beautiful collection, Oscar. Thanks for sharing.

Oscar, your custom puzzle collection is breath-taking. Thank you for sharing the photos together with their name reference.

Oscar,

really a wonderful collection, there are some puzzles I could really get jealous on..

My collection can be found here:

- Frank -

Now that's what I call a collection.

In the middle of the last picture, what's the puzzle with the brown stickers?
And on the left, is that a siamese 2x2x3?

Thomas

..but there's missing a puzzle made by your hands

- Frank -

I know. Oscar pointed that out at the last DCD.

Thomas

The one with the brown stickers is a Mama Skewb. (A Cuboctahedron Skewb).

And on the left, it does indeed look that way.

If so, that would be very very simple. More or less the same a siamese 2x2x1.

Oh, yes. I see it now.
Oscar took the photo with a tricky angle.

Thomas

That can easily be fixed. If you, or anyone else, has an intereting custom Rubik's puzzle, just let me know.


The other puzzles is this one:
http://twistypuzzles.com/cgi-bin/puzzle.cgi?pid=1333

It was too trivial for me to worry about the angle.

I've seen that people got crazy collection, I just post mine, I don't have a lot of rare puzzles, but this is my collection and I love it !

You can also see my crapy bump cube lol , I don't like it but I put it there just because it tooks me a very long time to do.

Updated collection on Thanksgiving 2007.


Video Coming soon.


I didn't realize I had so many puzzles.

More Pictures.

And video.

Edited due to useless accidental post

Very nice Noah!

How can I resist, I hope to be adding on to these very soon!

here my collection 802 items

Very impressive. On the left I see a few Tony Fisher puzzles and on the right I recognise a Flexible Hexagon. But I'd prefer some additionals close-up shots.

-------

Edit: Okay, I just noticed the link to your website. I'll take a look.

Edit 2: Yes... very impressive indeed.

Thomas

I just thought I would throw mine into the pot. Still working on it though. next to my octagonal prism is my newest mod, a 2x2x3.

I know that David Calvo made that edges only cube.

Shawn Dayton (myself) made the keychain fisher cube and the case cube.

Hope that helps.

Oscar, do you have any more pictures or discriptions of the other 4 sides of the custom 3x3 sticker variation shown to the upper left of the 5x5 Shepherd's cube? I've never seen that before and it looks quite interesting.

Here's my collection of various puzzles, current as of today. As you can see, I like sticker mods. Perhaps it's time for me to get into some more complex mods...

Soon to be a Pyraminx Crystal (it better), a 6x6, and a 7x7. That Rubik's 2x2 is stupid and has a slightyly different mech than the ice cube, so certain pieces go into certain places.

And sorry that my photos are way too big! Over 1.5 mb!!

Here's an updated picture of my collection.
I'm guessing this is about one fifth of everything I got.
But the rest is stored in boxes, waiting to be modified.

Thomas

After some time I got my puzzle gallery finished. Most of the puzzles are assembly puzzles, like interlocking burrs, japanese puzzle boxes etc:
http://puzzles.schwandtner.info

But of course there are some (about 100) twisty puzzles, even some custom builds:

http://puzzles.schwandtner.info/grid_twisty.html

Not very spectacular and not very many, but a good count to solve them from time to time, not just watch them. Note that there is not one unsolved puzzle in the gallery!

thomas, I always love your pictures!!

I'll post my updated (extermely updated) collection soon

I don't know how to build a webpage, or how to add puzzles/pictures to the site, so I put a bunch of my puzzles on Picasa. Take a look at these two pages:
http://picasaweb.google.com/katsmom01/Puzzles2
and
http://picasaweb.google.com/katsmom01/Puzzles
and
http://picasaweb.google.com/katsmom01/Puzzles3

I still have another two or three boxes to take photos of and that of course takes time. I'll post a page 3 when I get to it.
If any of the puzzles are missing from the data base, and someone knows how to load them, feel free to do so.

I have been collecting for about a year now and it has been really expensive. I have almost lost my girlfriend cuz of this, she thinks its crazy.

I dont have any special puzzles but I am a little proud of the collection as a whole:) Here is almost all in the corner of my living room in my appartment, here in Gjøvik Norway:D

Nice collection you got there. Is that the collectors edition of GTA4? hehehe

Yes, it sure is:) Thanks for saying so nice things about my collection:) I am a big fan of alot of games, and I am the kind of person that HAVE to have the collectors edt. of everything.

Thanks to some attentive forum member remarks I found out that on some systems and browsers a good part of my puzzle gallery had some pretty unreadable fonts. Now it should work on all systems, so if you did not like the site because of unreadable fonts, please visit it again.

Of course, I could have posted my gallery to the "show your V-CUBEs"-thread.

you have 2 ISIS balls! have you solved either of them??

The purple/gold one is a standard Isis (the version sold in the US through The Sharper Image). That one I have solved. The other one is a special edition Isis 1C. They only made 10 (or 11) of them, and so far only 1 person has solved theirs. Not me, not yet, I'm still working on it .

The Isis II should be out in the next month or 2 and they are planning on 2 versions of it, a standard version and a more difficult version for those of us who have solved one of the original one. I plan on getting one of each when they come out.

Now as far as the riddles for prizes that you can try to figure out after solving an Isis, I've gotten no where. I'm better at mechanical puzzles then I am at riddles.

very nice! I've only held one once...at The Sharper Image store...I twisted it a couple of times but didn't spend enough time with it to try and figure it out. I began reading about them and heard a lot about people breaking theirs while trying to open it because you were supposed to 'hit it on something solid with some force' :/ I don't think I'd wanna do that with a $200 puzzle lol

anyway, here's my small collection (still growing though, with a green/gold deluxe elemental on the way )

On Monday they come to paint the house and taking advantage that was guarding the cubes in boxes I have done photos to them.
I am to the wait of doing good photos and to put them in order

Where the heck did you find a purple Super Mario Brother puzzle can? Stupid question. Is that a Spanish version?

Hi Darren, is a gift of my brother, it many years ago, is not Spanish version.

Hi Solu !!!....My neighbor

one of the best Spanish collections...

update

Argh!
I will take half of it

I would settle for four or five of them ...

Nothing earthshattering, but I like how the collection shapes up.

Very nice.
