Hi mdniteowl,

A few people have had the same problem with the grindstone. It's possibly a glitchy area of the game. It sounds as though you're doing everything correctly.

One member found that the problem eventually resolved itself by simply replaying this part over and over. He couldn't see anything he had done differently, and yet he was suddenly able to remove the axe from inventory without the wheel stopping.

Thanks Rushes,thought I was going crazy!!!Followed your advice and it took doing it over and over but it finally sharpened axe.Thanks again!

Glad you got it done eventually.

I have tried and tried to chase slugger and sentinel monkeys with the blowpipe.They have even both turned red,but they still throw mud at me and now Leonard gets in on the act and he is green!!!Is there some secret I am missing to get these monkeys out of the way??!!Thanks for any help

When you make one of the baddies red, do the other one as fast as you can so that the original one is still in the red.

If I can do it, anyone can do it. I'm lousy at this kind of puzzles.

I think I have a saved game here if you want.
