"Four Tress" is a "2-dimensional caged burr" puzzle, from the creative mind of prolific and popular puzzle designer Goh Pit Khiam. It was beautifully laser cut and engraved by popular and prolific puzzle craftsperson Walt Hoppe (Laser Perfect), and used by Walt as his exchange puzzle for the IPP26 Puzzle Exchange at the Boston Puzzle Party in 2009. The object of the puzzle is to remove all 4 pieces from the frame, which requires 15 steps. The second illustration shows the state of the puzzle after 8 correct moves.
The puzzle is as it was received at IPP26 in 2006 in Boston. It came with minimal packaging. I will provide a
copy of the solution to the "Four Tress" Puzzle from the IPP26 exchange booklet.
I will ship within the US as a first class package (likely between
$5.40 and $5.85, depending on postal code) or at insured priority mail
pricing for $10.20, if preferred. I am happy to ship
internationally at cost, but I cannot always guarantee that overseas
packages can be insured or tracked.
Thank you for viewing my auction!
