This is definitely non-JPSoft :D

I have been collecting and doing the Hanayama metal puzzles.

You can see the series of puzzles here
http://www.hanayamatoys.co.jp/cast/level1/index.html
and clicking on the dice.

You can get these at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other places.
Tends to be $8 or £9 (but can be lower if bulk buying)

I can do all level 1, level 2 and all but one of level 3. Working my way up.
I just recently solved CAST DOLCE (takes 4 steps to unlink).

My latest purchase was CAST MEDAL, the newest, all the way from Japan. Definitely enjoyable. Keeps the mind active. :)

Most of them are kept at work. For a while last year, there was the sound of clinking and clanking from most desks. I took them recently to a New Years Eve party and someones 70th birthday party where they were throughly enjoyed.
