Eric's Description: I recieved a copy of this puzzle this year at IPP in Finland as an exchange gift from Mr. Iwasawa. I did not have time to solve it until I got home, but what a pleasant surprise it was! The goal of the puzzle is to fit the six angled pieces as well as the two cubes into the box. The shape is easily assembled outside the box, but when you attempt to insert them, you're in for more of a challange. The solution is elegant and entertaining. Once solved, removing the pieces become...

The Rattle - Wenge box
Eric's
Description: This puzzle was Henry Strout's
exchange puzzle at IPP 29 in San Francisco. I enjoyed solving it a lot, and
decided to make a run of them. To solve the puzzle, all the pieces must be
put in the box. Easy enough, except for two things. One, they must all go
thorugh the 1x2 slot in the side, making the order of insertion quite
important. Two, the yellowheart piece is stuck inside the box, so you have to
plan a...

Diagonal Cube
Six piece typical diagonal burr with the final shape creating a beautiful cube. Well known Stewart Coffin design.I made a handful of these for friends and family over the Summer and had this one left over. Great for someone who wants an inexpensive copy of a great puzzle just to actually play with. The pieces are not perfect like a Lee Krasnow or a Peterson work, so you can get some hints as some fit slightly better in certain orientations but the errors are very small so you'd have to look f...

Fusion
Eric's Description: Another one by Goh Put Khiam, Fusion is the successor of RetroFit. As you would expect from how tricky RetroFit was, Fusion takes it to another level. The goal, to fit the five polyominoes into the partially covered tray, is MUCH trickier than it looks. Here is what Goh has to say about it: This is a redesign of my Crossroad puzzle. In that puzzle, the pieces are complex and the cover of the box requires eight protruding tabs. This has been greatly simplified in this design w...
