Description

Original Aluminum cross by Wil Strijbos.

This puzzle has no markings except two small alignment dots, so I believe it to be one of the originals from strijbos, made before he started engraving the puzzles.

Goal is to take the two halves apart.

As are all strijbos puzzles, this is such a cool one.

Here is a little info I found online

In 1980 the Dutch designer Wil Strijbos created his first puzzle and this is it. The First Cross aluminium cross. And it's design is still as unique and intriguing as when he first created it almost 40 years ago.

At first you might think this is the same as other cross puzzles you've seen before. It's not! You might also think it does not look very difficult to take it apart. It is! And once you have it apart you might think it will not be very difficult to put it back together. It is! Possibly the most intriguing thing about this puzzle is that even if you see the elements of the puzzle when it's apart the solution is not obvious

Winner to pay shipping cost. I will message you after the auction to provide you with shipping cost. 5-10 USD inside the USA and 25-35 USD outside of the USA are the typical shipping cost
