Although the name is similar to Inelegant Squares, this puzzle is completely different. The pieces, which are made up of the typical Inelegant 3x4x5 pieces are almost square in shape. Now pack the 6 pieces into the box as shown. I think this is my new favorite of the Inelegant puzzles that Haym has designed. Only one assembly can be placed inside the box. Some really nice woods make this an attractive puzzle too!Designer: Haym Hirsh

"Exhaust" is a very unusual six-piece interlocking burr that combines board and burr piece shapes to achieve a fascinating symmetry. The two board and two burr pieces interact with the two hybrid-style pieces to create an unusual challenge. The solution is devious and clever.Construction of Exhaust went very well. The end-grain joints of the hybrid pieces are reinforced by a half-shoulder for strength, ensuring that this puzzle will stand the test of time without mechanical failure. Exhaust look...

2LIT is a fresh packing puzzle concept by Kris Antibus and Matthew Hochberg. The goal is to fit five pieces into a rather unique box. The opening to the box is a sliding panel with a notch, and a block fixed on the inside. The movement of this panel creates a changing state which significantly complicates the solving process. With no external tools allowed or required, you'll have to summon all your creativity to defeat this clever opponent!This is a printed copy of the original run in plastic.

Dr. Volker Latussek wrote about it:“A tribute to Yasuhiro Hashimoto… With his designs, Yasuhiro Hashimoto has given friends of mechanical puzzles all over the world deeply felt moments of happiness. When I recently had the opportunity to work with his 4L puzzle for the first time, the thought matured in me to say thank you for the wonderful time that Hashimoto-san gives us. Now I could have sent him a message and somehow put my admiration into more or less appropriate words. However, I decid...

Dr. Volker Latussek wrote about it:“My new packing puzzle has a small Greek letter tau on the top and your task is to close the box. I have to thank Laszlo Molnar for the design of the box that he first used in his beautiful puzzle NO HOLES BARRED. My goal in designing my new packing puzzle was to use as few equal pairs of pieces as possible. TAU gets by with only four pieces to close the box. I think the solution contains the most beautiful movement of all my puzzles so far. I hope that the s...

Slideways by Ray Stanton and Akio Yamamoto is one of our favorite Interlocking Burrs. Three simple, identical pieces combine to form the symmetrical shape. The solution is trickier than it seems, and some struggle even after even seeing it performed in front of them. There is a tricky concept in play that must be understood; once discovered, the pieces' smooth movement is addicting. Slideways is not the most challenging puzzle, but it just may become your favorite.Slideways' batch was a split pr...

Oskar's Matchboxes have always been one of my favorite designs. Very few puzzles come close in terms of originality, appearance, and overall appeal. The five pieces consist of an outer box and inner tray cleverly glued together. The goal is to assemble the pieces to contain every tray inside a box. With only two solutions, this is quite tricky! Matchboxes is quite time-consuming puzzle to craft. Each piece is constructed using the same robust shoulder joinery we used to make the Tube It In puzz...
