Opposite 1 and 2
Another great apparent cube from Magyarics - this time with 2 challenges so you get twice the fun. Not the hardest design from Alex, but the opposite double openings makes it really interesting. I opted for the surprise me option and received beautiful Mora and Ebarria pieces along with a very classy Acacia box. I will include the wood descriptions in the original box. While photographing this puzzle noticed a small area of the box where the join doesn't quite meet - I never noticed this while ...

Tube It In by Wil Strijbos 2020 Edition (RPP)
Tube It In is a classic design by Wil Strijbos. To solve it you have to take the various small rectangular pieces and pack them all inside each other. Wil originally made it with small cut sections of metal pipe! What an original and fun idea, still unique to this day. The puzzle itself is moderately tricky and fun to solve.Construction of this puzzle is painstaking. Each piece is strengthened with shouldered joinery on the edges and then beveled on all faced. This was very tricky indeed with su...

New Melting Block by John Rausch (RPP)
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 when the second solution is discov...

Chain Store by Goh Pit Khiam (RPP)
In keeping with our theme of very unique offerings this month, Chain Store is a very unusual puzzle. The goal is simple; to fit the chain with its five interconnected links completely into the box. The solution is not so simple and very satisfying. I've been excited to make this puzzle for a while, and am very happy with the results.Precision wood puzzles can be damaged by environmental changes.

Reticulated Cubes by Lee Sallows (RPP)
Reticulated Cubes is a fascinating exploration of 3x3 cube puzzles with a novel twist. Each box contains nine pieces, and there are eight possible cube solutions. The goal is to organize the pieces in the box such that any three pieces in a straight line will assemble into a cube (tic-tac-toe style). The solution is quite difficult to find!

Box Rebellion by Stewart Coffin (RPP)
Box Rebellion was previously released as an IPP exchange puzzle in 2004 by Walt Hoppe. Similar to the wildly popular 4L design, Box Rebellion is a tricky multiple-step packing puzzle with a single solution. The four identical pieces must be packed into the box but are blocked by an odd-shaped acrylic slider over the top which only allows one side of the box to be accessible at a time. The solution includes multiple rotations.For multiple items, combined shipping is available. Simply message me...

BonBon by Frederic Boucher (RPP)
The "BonBon" packing puzzle by Frederic Boucher is just a ton of fun. The set of five tetrominos must be fully inserted in the rectangular box, and there is only one very specific way to do it. The solution requires well over a dozen correct moves, including rotations.The box itself is very unusual, with cutouts in the top and sides. The acrylic top is held in place with a tricky set of shoulders resulting in a great fit which retains a solid exterior presentation.BonBon is constructed with a bu...

4L by Yasuhiro Hashimoto 2020 Edition (RPP)
The excellent 4L puzzle is back by popular demand! This is one of my favorite puzzles. 4L was awarded an Honorable Mention at IPP 2015 and is FAR trickier than it looks. The goal is to pack the four L shaped pieces into a very simple box. There are two different types of L pieces (fat and thin) and several possible configurations. The solution is extremely creative and devious.

Harun by Dr. Volker Latussek (RPP)
Another brilliant packing puzzle by the designer of the award winning "Casino" puzzle, Harun is a tricky assembly. Six notched sticks and six small planks pack into the box two different ways. The solution is trickier than is apparent given the simple pieces.Construction of this puzzle is excellent, with a precise fit which displaces a cushion of air when the entire assembly is dropped in at once.

Surround by Kohno Ichiro (RPP)
Designed and first released at IPP in 2009, Surround is closely related to the 3/4/5 cubes designs by Ichiro. In this case, six pieces must be used to surround the solid cube in such a way that is self-supporting. Two solutions using magnets are possible, with another "rule-breaker" solution that does not use magnets and covers the cube completely! The finished shape is pleasingly symmetrical and displays well.Precision wood puzzles can be damaged by environmental changes. Please read the Cari...
