    1. OA in 15 minutes.
      I toiled with these first…
      Mechanics/Mechanisms, Charisma, Schemas, Branchia, Benchmen, Brakemen, Chicken, Chairmen

      1. OA for me as well. I see somebody came up with a variation on the OA but this was a really restrictive puzzle. Very little that could be done with the X. SIX, MAXI(S), and AXIS were all I could come up with. Add ARSENIC, ARCHAIC, CINEMA, and SICKEN to your list of words that couldn’t be paired.

        1. I fiddled with the same words before finding the OA. It wasn’t too long but definitely not an immediate answer

  1. BENCHMARKS — SIX

    Couldn’t do anything with RAINCHECKS, MECHANISE, ANARCHISM, AIRBRAKES, CHARISMA, or ARMCHAIRS. Evidently, BRAKE CHECK is words, so no dice there.

    OA, albeit not all that quickly. I think it’s safe to assume it’s a one-off; the placement of the X is too restrictive for anything else.

      1. The Letters of Lavender

        Yeah, that’s why I made an exception. I look for a short word first that accommodate the ‘X’. When I put in MAXIS, I spotted BENCHMARKS. This time, looking for a short word first before a long word. A reversal of my usual strategy. Yay!!! OA!!!

        1. Pretty much the same approach here, although started with AXIS, then threw the M in front. Had BENCHES earlier, so the brain finally kicked in after the full cup of coffee 🙂

  3. Benchmarks, six.
    The total number of impressions left the 3 times I’ve walked into the gym, sat down at a piece of equipment, and then walked right back out…

      1. Thanks Steph! I needed some shared laughter today!

        Thanks also to Bernie and DW for shout outs and sharing in the recent past.

        Cheers to all the LB OGs!

  4. Very frustrating puzzle.
    I could not find a 3 solve in my 30 minute allotment this morning, let alone a 2 solve. Forget about the OA. The letters B K H X don’t play well when the only vowels are A E I.

  5. These letters made me feel like I was doing needlepoint. I always ignore those compound words! Even though I know they’re commonly used.

    So nada.

  6. I had BENCHES and SIXMARK which is not a word but didn’t think of Benchmarks. lol. Sent in BRAN NAMECHECKS SIX

  7. I forgot to post this yesterday.

    Here is the full list including Scrabble words:

    ** Don’t look at the list if you haven’t finished solving the puzzle **

    (The first number is a count and the second number is the number of letters used)

    1 – 13 benchmarks / six
    2 – 16 benchmarks / sixain

    3 – 17 benchmarks / sixaine*
    4 – 18 benchmarks / sixaines*
    5 – 17 chainbrakes* / saxman*
    6 – 17 chainbrakes* / saxmen*
