Description
Ready for a challenge? Merlin is as difficult as it is beautiful!
Kevin Sadler wrote about it in PuzzleMad:
“Merlin is a serious work of art for serious puzzlers! This tremendous puzzle was designed by the genius Stephan Baumegger at the request of Dave Holt (The Metagrobologist) to accompany the Arthur and the Excalibur (also Cubic caged burrs) in the theme of T.H. White’s “Once and Future King”. This gorgeous burr consists of 8 burrsticks in 2 sets of 4 and Merlin’s wand passing through too. This is a high level burr at 64.7.3. The burrsticks move but they are heavily constrained by the wand which can only move along 2 constrained paths. I have not managed to solve this yet (and may not ever manage it) but this is one incredibly beautiful puzzle which will be fun to try, fail and then put back on display.”
BurrTools file available upon request.
I need to reluctantly sell some pieces from my collection to replenish puzzle funds; all puzzles are kept in a pet-free room at 68 - 73 F, and 45% - 50% humidity.
