Description

Odd

DAEDALUS (ZIRICOTE) (Benedetti/Vigouroux)
Shipping
included
The
4 Daedalus in sale are the last I have in my posession.
I'm
pretty sure that Maurice have 2 others but there are the last.
I
decided to not sale thoses puzzle because of the defaults :
Aestetic
default (the polish is not similar, there are some scratches ...)
Mechanical
default (some gaps on the final shape, sometimes too tight sometimes
too loose)
Due to the demand, and because the
4 puzzles are correctly workable, I decided to sell it.

Binary Pin Burr
This 25 piece puzzle utilizes 4
pin mazes on the key piece along with four moving pin pieces to create a 4 bit binary
numerical sequence (not gray code). Other Binary puzzles use Gray Code where only one piece moves at a time for each step, with Binary sometimes multiple pieces need to move for a step. 45 moves to remove the key piece. It was entered into the IPP35 Design Competition. Only 7 were made. A neat design but due to too many time consuming machine setups these will not be made a...

Cubic Burr II, design Tom Jolly, made by Eric Fuller
Cubic Burr II, design Tom Jolly, made by Eric Fuller. Level 5.8.8 (orthogonal... I found that there is a rotation you can make on the second/third pieces that reduces the move-count to, I believe, a 5.7.1). Weight is 12 oz with packaging, so shipping outside the US is $22.50, less for Canada.

The V1 Blue is designed to help develop your mazing skills, the core contains a static progression maze you can neither see nor touch. You will need to use the power o...

Tornado Burr
"This ingenious burr was designed by Junichi in May 2007 with "head and hands; no computer". Junichi had the idea for a multiple rotational movement but did not get to finally apply it to a puzzle until he came up with the Tornado Burr.People often ask puzzle designers "What was going on in your head to design this puzzle?" What was going on in Junichi's head when he designed the Tornado Burr? Visualising things going up and down and back and forth at the same time is one thing, but things going...

Red Planks Puzzle
This 3x3 with planks and cubes may look familiar, but it's got some tricks up it's sleeve. I dont want to give too much away, but generally everything proceeds as normal up to a point...then some serious oddity occurs (NO force required!) With several congruant pieces, you'll solve it the first time to get it all back together, then probably a couple more searching for the piece placement which yields a symmetrical grain pattern.Made with air dried walnut and various species, each puzzle is uniq...

Four piece Burr Cube
This clever puzzle shows major design chops. Using four identical, simple pieces and a cage, Yamamoto created a level 9.2.5 beauty with only one solution. Fun to solve, a nice half hour challenge for the serious puzzler. The top and bottom is made from mitred Bubinga component pieces, replete with clever notching to facilitate the inset cross braces. A fine cage if I do say so myself.> Each piece signed and dated; ~30 copies made for sale. Ships assembled.
