Those are nice. OP looked like some of the poker blocks used for large denominations.

Exactly what I was thinking as well.   
Though those are made in mass where these are hand made by OP.  Truly each piece is a work of art.

Hey everyone,

The LuckyBit team wanted to announce that you can win
a free Kialara Labyrinth at our new tournament! Go here
for all the info: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1176605

The best of luck!

(Yes, we bought a few Kialaras from Max to give away in promotions and
tournaments. They are awesome! If you don't manage to get one
for free from http://luckyb.it, we'd advise you to buy one - they are really
beautiful. Even though you'll still miss the beautiful wooden boxes we had
custom made )

Max has been awesome in handling the whole thing and has been
generally pleasant to deal with - thank you!


(@mods: If this is still too spammy for your taste, please let us know and we'll
tone it down. We wanted primarily to praise the goods offered in this thread.)

I recently ordered a 2014 Original and I have yet to receive any kind of confirmation of my order (except for the receipt from Coinbase). Is that normal?

Max is still trying to catch up, but it has been a while since his last update. I'm sure he's still working on it, but it is a 1-person operation.

has anyone heard from Max recently? I placed an order Sept 21st but there was a backorder for better quality parts. Just wondering if anyone knows if those bars have shipped, thanks

[Pistachio]

Are both the silver and ceramic versions of the Labyrinth still being sold on Max's blog? Is it random which one you get?

Parts arrived. All outstanding orders will ship by Friday.

It seems that Max is pretty busy lately as he hasn't responded to a PM of mine that I sent somewhere last week/begin this week.

Hi everyone, I've been shipping orders out all this week. As usual I have experienced many production issues, and I've resolved all of these issues - it just takes time as many of my parts come from overseas. And more often than not I have to eat the cost of the faulty products b/c with the relatively small volume I do a supplier would just assume drop me than take the hit themselves. It is getting better over time, and I'm working with some more reliable suppliers now. Also, I have a new product I'll be releasing soon. Managing this and keeping up with orders has been a challenge, as napalm mentioned, I'm a one-man show. I haven't slowed down any, just burning the candle at both ends. I'm close to catching up with all outstanding orders. As always your patience is greatly appreciated.

Pistachio, regarding the labyrinths, the ones with silver bearings are still shipping, although if you place an order and request ceramic I'm happy to send one of those.

Max-

Thank you for the update Max, I really appreciate it and I hope everything works out for you as well.

Looking forward to the new product.

Edit:. Placed a second order with btc. Please use the ceramic bearings (Order Number 5VXA4PCP). Thanks.

Actually i feelt so bad about it i have every single piece of it... except the crystal. If you want i can get some pics gimme a moment.
Edit: Here is it, i found after the small btc thing that goes in the middle but already put everything back in place so skipped doing another pic.

[Mitchell]

That should be tagged as gore!

I'm so curious as to why you decided to open it. Was it loaded and you wanted the BTC or were you just curious how hard it was to open up?

I loaded and declared it my crypto savings for the future, after busting all i had i ended up opening it in a moment of rage and yoloing what it had in... won and cashed out but i regret it so much. I also was few steps of winning the lb tournament but i fucked it up in last second

I won't be surprised if someone wants to buy some of the parts since its so unusual
