Nicely made, with just a touch of glue squeeze out visible on the inside.Thanks to Bernhard for telling me the designer and manufacturer! These puzzles are ones from my personal collection that I no longer have room for.Shipping cost will be cal...

This excellent Jolly design is a really fun, if somewhat simple puzzle. The shuttle is caught in the cage and must be removed. I made a small run of them in 2005 and they have not been made since to my knowledge.This particular example was a production sample from an overseas factory. I was at one point attempting to have them mass produced, but could never get the quality right. The dark wood is dyed a walnut color, and the cage is simply butt glued. So, not stellar work...but the puzzle s...

This interesting puzzle was designed by Karen von Kanel. I ended up playing with the piece set and came up with this version. From the website:"This puzzle is a derivative of Karin Von Kanel's outline burr, designed in 2001. I have been wanting to make this for a long time, but was having trouble getting in touch with Karin. Finally I ran into her at the NYPP and she heartily agreed to give me permission to make it. Initially I wanted to make the "Ultimate" level 15.1, but when I plugged it int...

This is one of the first 10 puzzles I ever made. I did it on my buddies Table saw. Notches were made by cutting the two end pieces out, then freehand cutting the middle. I remember about 6-7 pieces were grabbed by the blade and flung back at me. No, I had no idea what the heck I was doing. Yes, I am lucky to still have all my fingers after a learning curve like that. Bid now and bid often on the puzzle that could have prematurely ended my career! These puzzles are ones from my personal c...

From the website:"The 2n Cube #1 cube was designed by Rob Stegmann in 2003. The puzzle consists of 8 interlocking pieces which assemble neatly into a 4x4x4 cube. Each of the pieces is comprised of 2 n-tetrominoes, joined together in 4 different ways (4 pairs of differently shaped pieces). Thus, 2 of each piece comprised of 2 n-tetrominoes, and Mr Stegmann?s last name also has 2 n so the puzzle name is quite fitting! The puzzle is considered to be of moderate difficulty.In addition, through some ...
