The Grooved Three Piece Burr by Kouki Kusumi is an interesting assembly. With three identical pieces, it takes the standard shape and mixes things up. Despite being identical, the pieces interact uniquely. With a level 8.2 solution, this puzzle is approachable yet fun for all experience levels.Precision wood puzzles can be damaged by environmental changes.

Another brilliant design by Mr. Eyckmans, "Sloot" means "ditch" in Dutch, a reference to the slots on the sides of this unique puzzle. Taking the six piece board burr to another level, Sloot features a very difficult level 16.6.4 unique solution. The interplay created with asymmetrical stick dimensions, the inner tabs and the outer slot means this puzzle moves entirely unexpected ways! Shipped assembled, disassembly alone is a formidable task.Precision wood puzzles can be damaged by environment...

Taking the following from Eric's original listing :"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 me at IPP this summer and let me play with a couple 3D p...

Oskar's Matchboxes has always been one of my favorite designs. In terms of originality, appearance and overall appeal, very few puzzles come close. The five dissimilar pieces consist of an outer box and inner tray cleverly glued together. The goal is to assemble the pieces so that every tray is contained inside a box. With only two solutions, this is quite tricky!Oskar’s Matchboxes is a very time-consuming puzzle to make, with all pieces constructed using the same shoulder joinery that we used...

Twelve Straight / Twisted is an incredibly difficult and satisfying interlocking puzzle. There are a staggering 10,800 possible solutions, but only four are capable of being assembled due to the tricky joinery.

Geneva is the first new puzzle by William Hu in quite some time. Named after the clockwork mechanism that it's partially inspired by, the level 9.3.4 solution includes some very unique rotations and coordinate motions. During assembly, there's a fair amount of freedom, with a lot of dead ends to run into and circles to run around in. Geneva is a nice addition to any TIC collection.Precision wood puzzles can be damaged by environmental changes. Please read the Caring for Wood Puzzles guide to e...

The Pin Cubes series by William Hu are three new cubes based on a 3x3x3 structure. By including drilled holes and pins, each puzzle in the set takes advantage of this format in a different way and creates three very different experiences.  Designed to be tricky in both disassembly as well as assembly, they are a new take on an old idea, and well worth a look. Pinball (Walnut) is the most difficult. Pinball is quite unusual; there is clearly a single movement that wants to happen, but it is sto...

Tabula Cube is a very interesting puzzle. The 3x3 cube format is augmented with eighteen smaller planks which connect with the cubes to make nine different shapes. The level 1.7.2 solution is tricky to disassemble and very challenging to assemble. Tabula is a lot of work to make, with 45 component pieces and very precise gluing requirements. We may not sell it out immediately but that's ok...it's a unique puzzle and I'm looking forward to having a copy in my own collection.Precision wood puzzles...

Five is the magic number! This "Turning Interlocking Cube" has a level five solution, with five rotations and five different wood types. Designed by Andrew Crowell, these fascinating TIC's take it to the next level. Instead of straightforward linear moves, these designs require rotations during the solution process. Construction is outstanding, with shouldered joinery where side grain gluing is not possible, and detailed bevels which flow around the shouldered joints for a uniform appearance.Pre...

Derek's Split Maze Burr has been eagerly awaited as the more difficult and imposing verion of the original Maze Burr released years ago by Kagen. Upping the ante with double maze plates on each face, this puzzle is more of a puzzle system. There are many challenges, with "simple" solutions requiring 30 moves up to the most difficult configuration requiring over 300 moves to solve! The puzzle comes with tools to rearrange the plates and a downloadable booklet illustrating the problems (a link to...

Daedalus is a masterpiece of design. Brilliantly creative and brutally difficult to both craft and solve, I've wanted to make this puzzle for a while.According to Allard Walker:"In its fully closed form, the puzzle hides all of its secrets rather well - there is literally no clue to the sheer pandemonium hiding inside in wait for an unwary puzzler. One of the pics on the Contest website shows the Daedalus with a single piece removed - and it has teeth! From that picture you can surmise that the ...

Rick sent me this design a while ago and initially, I wasn't going to make it...all those holes are incredibly time-consuming to drill. He stepped in and helped with the drilling, so this is a true collaborative effort between designer and producer.Logical Progression is a very unique cube. With only one solution which must be accomplished with serial assembly, it seems at first look that this puzzle will be a trial and error nightmare. However, the puzzle is designed such that scrutiny of the p...
