 		last post until i hear from you guys:

if i slowly turn the unit upside down, the ball rolls only a little way (dont want to fully turn it upside down). this causes the top to be rotated again but when i put it right side up, it locks back at -180.

i write this so you know i haven't locked the ball up inside or anything. it CAN still roll around. just doesn't seem to go anywhere and the top is locked. is this normal?

 		a little help
The top is only locked when youre holding it in the upright position wright?
Thats because the bb is back in the place where it should be to get the keychamber open the first time.Since you popped it back in you now need to continue to get to the final position.To get the bb back up,hold it upside down and twist and rotate until the bb is back upthere.Then you need to get the bb back down by another route.The center shaft is not the way to get it down.
The rotating parts have upsides and downsides so you'll need to check how you hold the ramisis and how many times you need to turn it upside down again .
Good luck.

ok - bb is currently back in the Upper ROH. is that the starting point? do i have to drop it down a level through the tube first or is there a track/small hole in the ring its spinning around on?

(thanks btw. this doesn't sound like it's going to be easy Sad )

that tube you referred to we mostly call it the shaft.And if you got the keychamber to release the first time it went down the shaft along the way.
Now that it its back in the upper roh it needs to get down trough several holes in different layers.Good luck.

 		thank you for your assistance. once i get it back to the bottom, how will i know what to do then? does the top just twist off? does it lock somehow and then you know that you are in the right spot?

When you get it in the sweet spot you twist the top,when its in the right position the keychamber pops out and you cant twist it any further in that direction.
Do you remember in what direction you turned it to get it locked at the back.This time it should be the opposite site.

 		will SOMEONE PLEASE PM ME THAT KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT. the bb is either in the top ROH or the tube or at the bottom with the placenta locked at the 180. i CANNOT get it apart.

again - i got the key out partly but pushed it back in BEFORE removing the key. the bb WILL NOT get to the bottom ANY OTHER WAY THAN THE TUBE.

Hey guys, I'm back. I wrote mr puzzle man and let him know how dissapointing his puzzle is "for the fifth time" and again no reply. I honestly can't believe I am still checking up on this forum and wasting my time but what can I say? K, I'm a loser.

It is extremely pointless to do the second phaze of the puzzle. All of them are busted and its really not worth your time if it frustrates you AT ALL.

Conrad, you are pretty damn hardore for keeping up with this stuff for so long. How bout we hop on a boat and hit up some pirate treasure or somethin? Maybe a little more rewarding and just about the same in difficulty. Keep on Keepin on. Good luck everyone.

 		agreed
I agree, If your concerned about quality machining in a challenging metal puzzle of similar weight. have a look at the revo thread crazy-8.

I'd reccomend the blue as the green is a bitch.
