Yet another fantastic puzzle by Alexander Magyarics, probably my favorite so far of his apparent cubes.   Moves: 10.4.2What Brian has to say about Collator:Alexander Magyarics has been very busy lately and I am taking advantage of that creativity. Here is a nice little packing puzzle. Just three piece to fit into the box through a fairly large opening. This one gave me a workout for a while! I also like the fact that there are 3 solutions in total. But the desired solution gives the nicest fin...

Item is in brand new condition and includes original packaging.Description from Cubicdissection Website by Eric Fuller:Pit sent me this design and I really liked it. It's a tricky packing puzzle that uses a new type of motion. With five identical pieces (but different wood types) and an acrylic cover, it's a lot of fun to play with and figure out. Moderately difficult, you can feel comfortable handing this off to a non-puzzling friend. Fit is very good, should not have any issues with humidity c...

Can come assembled or disassembled.Eric's description: Ever since I began collecting I have always wanted a copy of this puzzle! Therefore, I was very excited when I contacted Oskar and was given permission to make it. A scarce puzzle in the past, very limited quantities were made by Tom Lensch and Trevor Wood. Trevor interpreted the puzzle with very solid thicknesses and construction. Tom's, on the other hand, was painstakingly made using ultra thin wood to resemble actual matchboxes. I have t...

It's a cute packing puzzle designed by Laszlo, so you know that there's a twist hiding somewhere. While it looks relatively straight forward with the two half voxels making some of the piece placement easy to deduce, you'll discover it's anything but!Comes in Brian's excellent craftsmanship with the inside of the box in canarywood and the outside of the box with the pieces in paduak for a stunningly gorgeous puzzle.I accept Paypal, but there are no extra Paypal fees, since I consider it to b...

Broken Soma is a puzzle hiding more secrets than one would expect. I first worked on it thinking I would solve it within minutes, but to my surprise, it took at least an hour before I had the crucial insight to solve it which put a smile on my face at Ken Irvine's sneakiness.It's called Broken Soma, because Ken took the 3 voxel piece (the small L) and broke it into 6 half voxel pieces which he then attached to the other 6 Soma pieces. Taking a puzzle that had 240 solutions down to only one! Now ...

This is a 2 in 1 puzzle. Assemble the 12 deformed pentaminos into a cube. Assemble the 6 plates into a box for the assembled pentaminos.Figuring out the pentamino solution is not easy but really satisfying once things start to come together.Few words from pluredro:Juno modified the pentomino pieces to form a cube. As puzzle lovers know, twelve pentomino pieces can form a 3 x 4 x 5 cuboid but those pieces cannot form a cube. Juno changed the ratio of the element of the pieces from a cube to...

Kryptonite is very aptly named, because it's proven to be MY kryptonite! The 6 challenges are incredibly difficult and I've only managed to solve the ones that don't require rotations thanks to BurrTools giving me a few hints. The ones that do require rotations? I couldn't solve them. But I've gotten tired of trying and trying again, so I'll just pass this puzzle on to someone else smarter than I am.It's a 3d packing puzzle where you are given a list of 6 challenges to pick specific pieces from ...

Description from CubicDissection: New Melting Block by John Rausch is an improved version of Tom Obeirne's original Melting Block puzzle. This paradoxical 3-D packing puzzle has two unique assemblies, one using seven pieces and the other using all eight. There are two possible solutions for each assembly.The seven-piece solution seems to fill the box entirely, with little room to spare. The leftover block seems far too large to fit in the box...yet somehow, impossibly, the eighth piece does fit...
