Twelve Bow Ties 3 was both designed and crafted by the master himself, Wayne Daniels, whose work is getting mighty hard to find these days. It was an IPP36 Exchange Gift from Marti Reis and is being sold as received - without having ever been disassembled except what little was done for one of the photos. There are 8 pieces, each with notches and dovetail-like protrusions that fit into the notches. This is an assembly puzzle, so taking it apart is easy. You won't need to do much to be confused about how it goes together afterwards - I found it confusing to reassemble just the two pieces that I removed for the photo. The puzzle is relatively small, which makes the smooth, easy sliding of its pieces all the more impressive.
Final cost to the winner will be the winning bid amount plus 4% Handling fee plus shipping costs.
