Number Three Ball and PlungerFrank's IPP 22Exchange puzzle, The goal is to take the ball bearing out.This puzzle is small but perfectly formed about two thirds of the weight of an standardised puzzle hamster.  Interestingly hamster's have testicles that are disproportionate to their overall size and this makes comparison with this puzzle particularly apt. The ball to be removed seems to be about 10mm in diameter. How can such a small puzzle hold such a large ball?The standardised puzzle Hamster...

Bottle De Luxe(mbourg)Carlo Gitt's exchange puzzle from IPP21 held in Tokyo, The goal is to remove the rod from the bottle.The bottle is about the height of a hamster's head and about 5/6ths of the weight. I've never tried hamster milk (only cow and goat) but this bottle would seem to be about the right size for it. Unfortunately my hamster is male so I must sell this puzzle.The standardised puzzle Hamster is not included in this auction but is included for scale. A standardised hamster has a le...

Rolling Pin-(T)okyoMarcel's exchange puzzle from IPP21 held in Tokyo, The goal is to take the rolling pin apart and then put it together again.The rolling pin is about five eigths of the length of an average hamster but being less fluffy weights four grams more. Although arguably it is the exact right size for a hamster, hamsters don't like flat food.The standardised puzzle Hamster is not included in this auction but is included for scale. A standardised hamster has a length of 160mm, height of ...

as described by Cubicdissection: Strap is (in my mind) an interesting successor to Alkema's Clamp puzzle. The two pieces are filled by four cubes which can maneuver  internally. The solution is tricky and non-intuitive...all pieces are accessable so there is no need for gravity shifting. There is a rotation shortcut which is quite apparent with disassembly but not at all apparent during assembly, which is nice in my book...almost like two different puzzles. Strap is a lot of ...

This is one of a series of locks I am selling. Mostly (all?) Indian manufacture and best described as "rustic". All should be working but several not tested for a few years and some solutions longs since forgotten. None are particularly tricky. Condition is far from great on most of these. Oil, Grease, Rust all present in varying degrees on these locks.  If you have ever bought locks from India (as I did) you should know the kind of thing you are getting. A puzzle you have to wash your hands. O...
