    Nice! I'm not the best at cryptics but I enjoyed trying it

      I originally had the clues with (7) instead of (5), how'd that happen 😅

            Nice first cryptic! Good mislead with the word pops in 3D. I couldn't parse the first half of 1A though. Could you explain?

              Thanks! The "title" refers to "Cryptic One" where you can find "cone"

                Ooh, that might be a step too meta for me, for a standard cryptic. Inventive though 😁 I look forward to your next one.
