Three Cubes is an award-winning design, having placed in the 2018 IPP Design Competition. The three identical pieces must be assembled to form three solid cubes. This apparently simple task is complicated by the addition of magnets on each face, whose polarity significantly impacts the process. Very fun, and pocket-sized as well! Originally constructed with all three pieces made from the same wood type, this unique version consists of three different Tamarind, Canarywood, and Leopardwood pieces....

Slideways is one of my favorite puzzles ever. Three simple, identical pieces combine to form a three dimensional symmetrical cross shape. Seems easy, but there's a tricky concept that the solver needs to grasp to make it happen. Once discovered the movement is addicting! This puzzle is shipped unassembled.These puzzles are extras and oddballs that have accumulated in the shop.  Sometimes when we make a run of puzzles we will have a few with different woods, etc. which are too much trouble to li...

Boron is a moderately difficult puzzle that displays like a piece of sculpture once it's solved. The 12 pieces are made with contrasting hardwoods and precision-crafted in our North Carolina workshop. Its interlocking nature means that several pieces have to shift around to release the first piece. This puzzle is a lot of fun and a great addition to anyone's collection, beginner or advanced. Boron is delivered disassembled.These puzzles are extras and oddballs that have accumulated in the shop.Â...

The interesting shape of this burr is what attracted me to it initially. The unique level 12 solution was also a contributing factor. Once I figured out the color scheme and put it in production I was very pleased with the result. A definite departure from your normal six piece burr, the construction sequence is tricky and non-intuitive. The finished shape is pleasingly symmetrical and displays well. Fit is very good, should be fairly tolerant of high humidity. Ships unassembled.These puzzles ar...

My latest box is the only box design I have collaborated on since the Stickman #4 with Robert Yarger, nearly five years ago. Generally I like to design my own boxes, but when Joel sent this design in for the Coffin Puzzlecraft Competition, I knew it was too good an idea to pass up. We worked together to make the solution a bit more difficult, and the result is something special. To my knowledge no other puzzle box uses the mechanism nor solving methodology that the Beaulid does.These puzzles are...

Gregory is one of the most talented designers out there right now, releasing consistently elegant and creative designs. The Stand By Cube series reflects that. With the addition of a base and attached "stem" piece, he turns the played out 3x3 cube on its head. There are three designs, each increasing in difficulty. We purposely made them with the same woods so that once you solve them all there is still the ultimate challenge; disassemble all three and mix up the pieces, then reassemble them!  ...

We are sold out of these and do not expect to make any more in the future.*******Gift Burr has the familiar shape of the traditional six piece star burr. Unlike the traditional burr, this puzzle is anything but simple to assemble. The notches are irregular and create a lovely parity issue where every time you attempt the last piece it simply doesn't line up. Not impossibly challenging for an experienced puzzler, this one is nonetheless trickier than it looks. Construction of this puzzle is excel...

The goal of the Half H puzzle is to use all seven pieces to make the shape of an uppercase letter H. It seems simple, right? The solution is anything but, and requires an intuitive leap. The picture does not show the solution (there's still one piece on the right that must be added to the final shape). This is one of my favorite puzzles; it's very clever.These puzzles are extras and oddballs that have accumulated in the shop.  Sometimes when we make a run of puzzles we will have a few with diff...

Note: The photo of this item is for reference only, the wood type is different from what is depicted.  All pieces are Paduak, which is the dark orange wood in the below pictures.****Another classic Cutler burr, originally crafted using Canarywood, Purpleheart, and Paduak. This unique version is made entirely from Paduak. The size is also a bit smaller so it doesn't crowd your shelves. Here is what Bill has to say about the Visible Burr design: I like to design burrs which are difficult to take ...

Impossible Triangle of Six Cubes is a little more impossible than the Three Cubes version, but still quite doable even for the beginner. One more piece, for a total of four, must be serially assembled to create the six cube configuration. The puzzle is quite stable once assembled, and displays very nicely. Construction of this puzzle is extremely precise, with the pieces sliding together perfectly once the solution is found. This puzzle is shipped disassembled.These puzzles are extras and oddbal...

Pin Block Case is a unique and very interesting packing puzzle. It's not terribly high level, nor super difficult, yet there's something satisfying about the solution that makes it a wonderful puzzle. We made a Signature series run that sold out immediately and many were asking for more, so we decided to make a run of artisan quality puzzles as well. Construction of this puzzle is very sturdy with milled, solid pieces. This puzzle is shipped disassembled.These puzzles are extras and oddballs tha...

Siamese Burrs II is a delightful mashup of two traditional burrs. The level 12.4 solution has dead ends and subtlty. Were it made from a single wood, this would be an astonishingly difficult puzzle. As is, the wood choice gives the solver a fighting chance to realize this assembly...but only just! In the spirit of the NOS burrs, this is a very unique and unconventional puzzle that deserves a place on any collectors shelf. Construction of this puzzle is excellent. Fit is precise.

It's no secret that I love cube puzzles, and Andrey's "Repair the Cube" is an excellent one! Two internal pieces dance around the constraints of a truncated cage...the name asks you to position those pieces in such a way that they are contained within the cube and also repair the missing corner bits. With a level 11.10 solution, this is no easy task. onstruction of this puzzle was trickier than a 4x4 cube...this 5x5 has many more pieces and levels of interlock. Originally constructed using Wenge...
