I get the impression that a lack of clues eventually leads to a loss of interest in guesses.

Precisely; keeping the game in motion is paramount. Plus I had rotated the puzzle-picture 90⁰ to make it more difficult w/o showing any of the globe's artwork. Quite a gizmo imho;(rhyme intended) I cannot believe it isn't a premier attraction in Denmark today at the castle; or in St Petersburg at the museum. I thought Mapuc would figure it out first...

Two very good questions -

@ Aktung - these are the only two needed

@ Ostfriese - strangely, this isn't very old at all

This looks super familiar, but I'm racking my brains and simply can't find the connection.


Those gears are made of metal, right?
