RELEASED:11.21.2014PRODUCED:30 CopiesDESIGNER:Donald OsselaerCRAFTSMAN:Eric FullerMATERIAL:Maple and Bubinga / Paduak / WalnutCOMMENTS:From time to time I like to make a "display" puzzle. Usually it's a little larger in format, sturdy, and not so difficult that a non-puzzler won't have a good time playing around with it. When I saw Donald's new "Boron" design I knew it was a great candidate. With a reasonable 5.4 solution, Boron is not necessarily trivial but also not mind-bendingly difficult. T...

RELEASED:11.3.2015PRODUCED:41 CopiesDESIGNER:Christoph LoheCRAFTSMAN:Eric FullerMATERIAL:Cherry, PurpleheartCOMMENTS:This puzzle is more than just a pretty shape...it's also got a very interesting feature. Included with the six burr pieces is a small rectangular piece which can be added to the inside of the puzzle. Solved without the internal piece, Tulip has a level 16 solution. When the internal piece is added, the solution changes to a level 9.14...double the trouble for your money!The constr...

RELEASED:4.15.2015PRODUCED:41 CopiesDESIGNER:Stewart CoffinCRAFTSMAN:Eric FullerMATERIAL:Ash, LacewoodCOMMENTS:Ages ago I made a small batch of RD puzzles using octahedral clusters. I never did make the best of Coffin's design though, the Five Piece version, so I thought I'd whip up a batch after having so much fun with the Pyracubes. Five Piece Cluster has four dissimilar non-symmetrical pieces and a fifth key piece that is a single block. The serially interlocking solution is very tricky!The c...

RELEASED:12.16.2015PRODUCED:56 CopiesDESIGNER:Gregory BenedettiCRAFTSMAN:Eric FullerMATERIAL:PaduakCOMMENTS:With the invention of the NOS (New Old School) puzzle series, Gregory took the six piece burr format and turned it on its head. The only thing more noteworthy than the uniqueness of the series was how difficult they are to make. When he sent me the plans for them a year ago, I turned him down because it just looked like a nightmare to manufacture. I wasn't wrong...BUT...Gregory came up to ...

Designed by Yavuz, it's a simple but fun interlocking distraction, with a level 6.3.3.3 solution. Please note that this puzzle is not laquered, but has a natural wood finish.The construction of this puzzle is very good, with a reinforced frame and a snug fit. It may be a bit tight in very high humidity situations.25 copies made f...

RELEASED:2.3.2017PRODUCED:43 CopiesDESIGNER:Émil ÁskerliCRAFTSMAN:Eric FullerMATERIAL:Maple, MahoganyCOMMENTS:Strap is (in my mind) an interesting successor to Alkema's Clamp puzzle. The two pieces are filled by four cubes which can manuever internally. The solution is tricky and non-intuitive...all pieces are accessable so there is no need for gravity shifting. There is a rotation shortcut which is quite apparent with disassembly but not at all apparent during assembly, which is nice in my bo...

RELEASED:7.21.2016PRODUCED:43 CopiesDESIGNER:Emil AskerliCRAFTSMAN:Eric FullerMATERIAL:Cherry, WalnutCOMMENTS:I had already chosen the puzzles for the next update when Emil posted the Disguised and Camouflaged burr designs. I immediately contacted him for permission and squeezed them into the schedule because I thought the idea was so unique. Take a regular six piece burr but chop a piece or two in half and secure them. BOOM, now you have a traditional looking six piece burr puzzle that behaves ...

PLEASE NOTE that this is an unusual copy of this puzzle with mixed wood internal pieces instead of purpleheart, which is not reflected in the pictures below.

Please note that the dark wood in this copy is rosewood, only a couple were made like that. RELEASED:9.20.2013PRODUCED:44 CopiesDESIGNER:Tamas VanyoCRAFTSMAN:Eric FullerMATERIAL:Carolina Ash, RosewoodCOMMENTS:As soon as I saw this design I knew I had to make it. It was a lot of work and frankly I'm not charging as much as I should for it, but it's such a cool puzzle I have no regrets. The eight pieces pack into the oddly shaped frame only one way and in one very specific order. A fair amoun...

RELEASED:4.21.2016PRODUCED:43 CopiesDESIGNER:Tim AlkemaCRAFTSMAN:Eric FullerMATERIAL:Sappy Cherry and MarblewoodCOMMENTS:I've seen several designs lately with burr puzzles conspiring to look like other objects...a sword, an elephant...some weirdo even made one that looked like a chicken! But in my mind, none is as apropos as a padlock, so I jumped on the chance to make the Padlock Burr when it came around. Six mostly standard looking pieces interlock within the lock base for a unique and quite t...
