It is apparent that your grammar and punctuation are not your best traits. As far as solving the puzzle in two hours... I am not much of a believer, especially since this is the internet and I could say the same without anyone knowing the truth. I am a Psychologist, Sociologist, and a volunteer Firefighter.... not to mention I unlocked the ISIS in 30 minutes.... See what I mean =) A bit pretentious I know, but I feel we all will agree that you understand the significance... Well hopefully. Don, I would stick with being an Amateur Magician and Locksmith.

The center ring turns very easily while the upper and lower rings take considerable force. So much so that after 30 minutes or so of fiddling, my hands are quite sore. Do the rings on your Isis's all turn with relatively the same ease? Also, at the top of the stationary band just below the first movable ring (assuming the button to be the top), there is a slight outward dimple that appears to be a manufacturing mistake. Should I attempt to exchange my Isis for a new one? (Can I?) I just got an Isis and have a question concerning craftsmanship…
