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...

The Secret Opening Puzzle Box is a box of unknown origin with intricate carving work on the sides and top. This box has a trick to open it, rated very easy on a difficulty scale. Due to its weight and large dimensions, this item will be more costly to ship.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 list individually on the website.  These puzzles a...

Eric Fuller wrote about it:"This puzzle is a joint effort between Pit Khiam Goh and Eric Fuller. Pit designed the B-Box, which is a cross between a secret-opening type of box and a burr - inspired by Super-CUBI but with a much simpler mechanism. It also has an insane level 135.9.2 solution! Once you conquer the 135 moves of the B-Box you will find another, entirely separate puzzle box waiting inside. Called the "Reactor Box", this diminuitive 1.75" cube has several tricks up its sleeve! When yo...

A very difficult box!  I received it from a collector in its current condition who was sure it was broken.  (They had never opened it.)  After some hints from Eric I did confirm it opens!  There are some marks on top of the splines from operating the mechanism.

"The puzzlebox is called the Edelweiss after a flower native to the Swiss Alps. The tray puzzle, when solved, resembles this flower and will unlock one of its secret compartments. Because this flower often blooms while snow is still on the ground, puzzle pieces can also be solved to produce a snowflake, which will open another of its secret compartments."Buyer responsible for paypal fees (3.5%)
