Little puzzles - any suggestions for good ones?

[Bungleaio]

I like solving little puzzles and one of these arrived from amazon today https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B076Q8ZWRW/ref=cm_sw_e...

Taking it apart was fairly simple but putting it back together was more of a challenge but I figured it out after about an hour.

Does anyone else enjoy these and can you suggest any good ones?

I like hanayama. I’ve used this seller a few times:

Although I find once you’ve worked them out that’s always the end of it. Ie they’re a bit one use.

Cheers mate. I will see if I can pick some up 2nd hand.

Mr Puzzle on YT might give you some ideas if you're not already a subscriber?

I assume you’ve come across Chris Ramsay videos?

A left-field choice but have you considered trying lock picking (or lock sports as they prefer to call it now).

I've got quite into it from watching various youtube videos (BosnianBill and the lockpickinglawyer are a good start).

One can acquire a set of lock picks from ebay or the like and then some cheap locks from a car boot sale etc. and you have an instant puzzle to solve and a cheap endless supply. Also a handy skill to have when you lock yourself out of the garage....

Thats actually a pretty good shout, I'll look into that.
