Description

Dovetail Burr is our follow-up to the Japanese Wood Joint puzzle we released last month. Both are part of the series that Frans designed nearly 20 years ago. Inspired by traditional Japanese woodworking joinery techniques, Dovetail Burr was Frans's IPP 20 Exchange puzzle. Dovetail Burr remains an utterly unique interlocking board burr concept despite its age. The presence of matched dovetail joints forces each pair of pieces on a given axis to interact with the other. This innovation creates a distinct challenge with unfamiliar restrictions that will make you sit and think! The construction of Dovetail Burr was complicated. The dovetail joint adds an extra dimension to crafting difficulty over and above the typical precision requirements of a quality board burr. This difficulty is reflected in the meager availability of quality copies of this puzzle. We used solid Walnut and Lacewood for this batch, to remarkable effect. The fit and feel are sublime, making the solution as tactile a joy as intellectual.

This is the second of two oddball copies of Dovetail Burr we will be offering. We will offer one additional oddball copy of Dovetail Burr in a future event.

For multiple items, combined shipping is available. Simply message me once you are finished bidding and I will send an invoice.

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 are all in new condition and fully functional.

Our work is handcrafted to very precise tolerances and must be kept within the range of 40-60% relative humidity at all times. Failure to do so may cause inoperability or permanent damage.
