Most greedy cups are made of ceramic.  This greedy cup is very unusual in that it is made of wood.  The cup can hold liquid up to a certain level, but adding liquid beyond this (unmarked) level causes ALL of the liquid to spill out through a hole in the bottom of the cup.  Unlike most greedy cups where the siphon runs up through an object in the middle of the cup, this wooden greedy cup has the siphon hidden in one of its walls.  This puzzling object was exchanged by perennial Japanese Puzzl...

Looking quite a bit like the "Y" Pack is this second challenge from Haym Hirsh. The pieces are L shaped tetracubes and the box is very slightly different. Can you find the unique solution that fits all 5 pieces inside the box? I think this one is more difficult to solve then "Y" Pack. Getting the first 4 pieces into the box in a way that would allow the final piece to be inserted is something I couldn't get my head around. Again, I had to ask Haym for the solution in the interest of time. I wish...

This is the 2018 version of 4L with the plexiglass bottom. The new one is a solid bottom. I'd argue that the plexiglass bottom adds something to the solve. I have to be vague but I do consider it a more satisfying puzzling experience and solve with the plexiglass bottom. 3% PayPal fee will be applied to final price.
