New Edition First Box - William Strijbos
Here is William Strijbos' description of this puzzle:
I designed this puzzle around 1984 and it was my first puzzle box. At that time I produced only 6 of them (for Jerry Slocum – Nob. Yoshigahara – Dick Hess – Edward Hordern – James Dalgety).

The challenge is: Try to get the Rod out. No Tapping required – No Magnets – No External Tools.

At some point, the puzzle feels almost solved, but the donuts cannot come apart. There, you have to make the parity-changing move and then you have to solve a second maze. Both mazes are completely different, and ...

Double Crossed Box
From the second batch of 20 boxes made by Randal Gatewood in 2004.
The box is in excellent condition no scratches no nicks, and comes with the orignal opening instructions from Cleverwood.
The cedar lining inside the box smells just as wonderful as the first time I opened it 8 years ago.
I have enjoyed this box for many years and feel it is time for someone else to treasure it.
I have much better photos of the box both opened and closed please e-mail me if you would like to see them.
