Anchor Stones are small stone architectural building blocks made from quartz sand, chalk, and linseed oil. They are sold sequentially in sets with an instruction booklet of plans for various constructions. This is a repository of additional constructions that can be made.
I hope you didn't take it as criticism or oneupmanship that I went on to use the rest of the blocks.
If anything, I enjoyed the project more as a two-stager than I would have had the plan I was working from been for the ultimate result.
In fact, if your descriptions included block utilization (eg "uses 37 of 42 blocks"), I think I would often choose projects that left something for me.
The Heinzel is great for this since leftover blocks are unlikely to be too weird. Omitted blocks for the 6 are likely to just not belong, and ever more so as you move on to more advanced sets.

Excellent photos Alan and nice modifications. It's a challenge to use all the stones in the box.

Great fun.
Thank you.
