Tangler (2nd edition)
from cubicdissection.comThe first release of the Tangler was so successful that I decided to make another batch. This time in Curly Maple, one of my favorite woods. Accuracy and function is excellent...a little better than the first release actually. Tom is at it again, and with excellent results this time around. The Tangler is a two piece interlocking/disentanglement which has already left many experienced puzzlers out in the cold. The goal is simple; disassemble and reassemble the two pieces...

Strap
Eric says "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 book...almost like two different puzzles. Strap is a lot
of fun, and beautifully made wit...

Confessional - STC#68 (Stewart Coffin original)
Confessional (1994) Designed and crafted by Stewart CoffinSTC #68Excerpt from AP-ART by Stewart CoffinIn Confessional, all three axes of the Square
Knot #9 are tilted by five degrees, making the
cross-section of the pieces rhombic and the
assembly more complicated. It is also harder to
fabricate unless one invests in a custom cutting tool of some sort, which I never did or I might have
made lots more. I used laborious multiple saw cuts. The assembly has only one three-fold axis of

Fidget Burr Seconds Copy by Tim Alkema

Fidget Burr is a ton of fun and it turned out very well.The cage pieces are made from Cherry sapwood, and the internal burr pieces are made from Wenge.************************************************Please Note: This i...

Secret Burr Bloodwood, Sapele, & Walnut by Marcel Gillen (RPP)
Secret Burr is a re-release of a puzzle I made very limited copies of in 2002. Unique in that it's difficult in both assembly and disassembly, there are two locks inside the burr that interact much like Cutler's Ball Bearing Burr. Instead of steel bearings, Secret Burr uses small wood rectangles. Precision crafted of fine hardwoods, this puzzle not only looks exotic, but has the trickiness to back up its appearance.This puzzle is shipped assembled.For multiple items, combined shipping is availab...

Sloot 3 by Alfons Eyckmans (RPP)
Another brilliant design by Mr. Eyckmans, "Sloot" means "ditch" in Dutch, a reference to the slots on the sides of this unque 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!
