Half Lid Box (Fuller / Katsumoto)
(This is from the CD Artisan series)From CubicDissection:Half Lid Box by the famous Hajime Katsumoto is a similar challenge to Obstacle Box. With only two layers and one slider, you'd think it was easier. You'd be thinking wrong in this case...while there are fewer pieces, the smaller opening necessitates rotational moves which greatly complicate assembly.Construction of this puzzle is very sturdy with shouldered edges and milled, solid pieces. This puzzle is shipped disassembled.---------------...

Truncated Scorpius (??)
This puzzle has me absolutely baffled. It has all the hallmarks of a coffin design and manufacture and was with the other Coffin puzzles. However, I've been unable to confirm the name of this puzzle and there are no visible markings on it.The exterior looks like Coffins Egyptian (23-A) which is a version of Scrambled Scorpius, but this one has six identical pieces rather than six different pieces. It, therefore, appears to be a truncated Scorpius rather than a truncated Scrambled Scorpius.I wond...

Makishi Puzzle Box
Makishi Puzzle BoxI believe this is a 16 move puzzle box. I say believe because Makishi’s puzzle boxes are sneaky with lots of moving parts, so after a few solves I was still unsure if I’ve counted correctly. I believe this puzzle box is crafted from poplar wood with a Walnut finish applied to it. The puzzle box does not come with a solution.Shipping to your exact location can be calculated at the auction close, or send me a message and I can get you an estimate. Many thanks!

Butterfly Lock Box - aka Pleasure and Pain
#49 of 100This is a hefty aluminum puzzle with a very special lock. No force, no banging, no centrifugal moves. The object is to retrieve several items inside the puzzle, undo the lock, and then return everything to its original state. Very interesting mechanical design.The reason why this puzzle was titled "Pleasure and Pain" was because, in its original configuration, it was possible to get completely stuck. Solution included. Emergency key to get unstuck (which was purchased from...

Lift Box by Eric Fuller (RPP)
This second release of Lift Box incorporates a couple of design improvements over the last version. Customer reviews of the previous release describe the box well:
""Removing the lid of the Lift Box is easy, but this does not allow access the inside of the box and here the actual solve starts. The box has an unusual mechanism, and first time I have seen one like that. There are some carefully hidden hints in the design that give you a rough idea what may be required, but actually finding the ...

Akaki's Picnic by Akaki Kuumeri (RPP)
Akaki's Picnic is a wonderfully creative Packing Puzzle. The goal is to pack each 3x3 cube into the Picnic Basket so that all pieces are flush. Assembling the cubes outside the basket is trivial; the challenge comes when you try to fill the container. The handle of the basket blocks your progress, causing you to analyze the situation and think outside the box.
Akaki named the cubes after different foods you might find at a picnic. Each has a unique solution, representing a range of difficulties...

variation, he made it a second soma version in the Inelegant Series! As
usual, these are quite challenging. The altered Soma pieces assemble
into a cube . . . one way! They have some assorted holes in the sides
created by the irregular pieces. Let me also add that Haym puts a lot of
thought into the name of his designs!After 6 entries in the Inelegant series, you'd think Haym would be running o...
