Dual Maze
Like William Hu's "Simultaneous Maze" puzzle , Tamás had made a sequel using two mazes and one pin. Vanyó's design uses an identical top and bottom plate to confuse and trick the solver.An excellent addition to your collection, and a must have to compliment the Simultaneous design.The cage connectors are shouldered and reinforced by lateral connectors. The sliding internal pin has a pair of magnets which keep the slider centered once the puzzle is solved, a nice detail which keeps the puzzle f...

Elena's Burr by Leontev and Fuller
Elena's Burr by Aleksandr Leontev and made by Eric Fuller. Somehow, I accidentally bought two of these, so this is the spare. My starting price is a bit less than Eric was selling it for ($49). It's a very nice puzzle, but I don't need two of them. Weight is 10 oz with packaging, so shipping outside the US is $22.50, less for Canada.

No Holds Barred, Laszlo and Menold
No Holds Barred, Laszlo and Menold. This is another puzzle where I somehow ordered it twice without realizing I already had a copy. So, here it is. This is a tricky assembly puzzle; I'm a little embarrassed by how long it took to get the pieces in the box; there's a diagonal-cut half cube interfering with the assembly at the entrance. It was quite fun to solve. Weight is 11oz with packing, and shipping outside the US would be $22.50 (less for Canada). Yes, our postal service is extortionate.

Phred's Phenomenon, by Fred Armitage, made by Schweitzer
Phred's Phenomenon, by Fred Armintage, made by Bernhard Schweitzer. It's advertised as a 4x4x4 hollow cube, but in fact it has a solid 2x2x2 cube in the center! If you like, you can assemble it hollow, or not. Weight is 14oz with packing, and shipping outside the US would be $22.50 (less for Canada). Yes, our postal service is extortionate.

Possibly the crappiest "15" puzzle ever
A wooden 15 puzzle. This has been heavily abused and gouged by some idiot with a pencil, wood-burned, and partly sanded. Worst condition of any puzzle I've ever seen. On the other hand, it's also a fairly unique "15" puzzle with Japanese marquetry. And it's all there. You can have this poor, beat-up puzzle for a buck, if you need to temporarily fill a hole in your collection. I'm not sure where I got this from. This will be mailed in a bubble-mailer, with packaging that's 2 oz. I will not ship o...

Parcel Post packing puzzle, Constantin
Parcel Post packing puzzle, Constantin. Laser cut. Sadly, the tray design is so loose that it allows for false solutions (like the one in my photo). I always thought, "hey, what's the big deal. This one wasn't so hard." Turns out I was wrong. Weighs 7 oz with packaging. Shipping outside the US is $13.50, a bit less for Canada.

Pleasure and Pain, aka Butterfly Lock Box - William Strijbos
#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 I purchased from Strijbos ...

9 Step Extreme - 2 Key Puzzle Lock
One panel of this lock is tight.From Puzzlemaster.ca original description:Made from solid metal, this Trick Lock is more complex than it appears, and unlike regular locks, a key is not the only answer. The hidden mechanism is deceiving and requires a more careful inspection to unlock it. These locks are hand made, there are slight variations in each lock. These are replicas of ancient Indian locks. They are made to look old but are brand new.

Sweta Cross - William Strijbos
The object is to separate the 2 pieces of the cross. Puzzlers experienced with the classical version will find that Strijbos has added an extra element that makes this more difficult. Also, it is produced with very high quality in metal, as collectors of Strijbos' creations are used to.From William Strijbos' original description:I first came up with this idea in early September (2015), actually pretty late In early September! (A company in Switzerland wanted to use my First Cross puzzle as a v...

Caught Heart Box - Stephan Baumegger
The object is to remove the heart shape from the box. It's not a puzzle box in the traditional sense, but more akin to the Haselgrove box. The internal shapes must be shifted around correctly to release the heart.When I first got this box, it got stuck inside because the fit was too tight. Brian Pletcher graciously took the puzzle apart, sanded it down so that it worked, and glued it back together. Thanks Brian! The result of all this disassembly and reassembly is that there is a noticeable...

Binary Burr
The Binary Burr is a classic Bill Cutler design. It was awarded a First Prize at the 2003 IPP Puzzle Design Competition.Eric's comments at time of production:- "Construction of this puzzle was tricky. The humidity in my workshop was fluctuating wildly, so I opened up the tolerances more than I usually do to make sure the final product wouldn't bind up or get stuck. The good news is that I was successful there - this puzzle should work in all humidity conditions. The bad news is that the ...
