Pluredro's description: This is the smallest one among three kinds of Pinned Framed Burrs. It still requires 40 moves to remove the first piece from the assembled shape and because of the larger number of possible assemblies of the internal pieces, this one can be more difficult to assemble than the M sized one.The same as M, the internal pieces are made of remnants of the L sized one. The grooves on these Teak internal pieces were milled out by a CNC router for accuracy work. The surface of ...

This is a six piece garnet made from contrasting fancy woods. I have been unable to locate a makers mark but the puzzles works brilliantly with deep trapezoidal pieces (see the third picture!)

Boxy by László Molnár is a unique packing puzzle concept. You must pack the five simple pieces into a clever box with a rotating and connected top/bottom panel. Joined by a dowel, the top and bottom move together and therefore limit access to the interior. As the box fills with pieces, the movement of the lid is increasingly restricted. Despite multiple possible configurations, you can assemble only one in a particular order. Boxy is a fun, challenging puzzle.I'm thrilled with how this puzzle...

Lock Box is a sequential discovery puzzle box. Its simple appearance hides a very complex mechanical mechanism that requires multiple discoveries to open. No gravity moves, spinning, tapping, banging or force is necessary or allowed.I think this is one of my best designs to date. Multiple steps and discoveries are required, with knowledge of the mechanism coming in stages until the box finally opens to reveal its prize.We sourced a very rare plank of Claro Walnut for this edition of Lock Box. Cl...

Bill Cutler's description :"The wood used in this puzzle has two layers - one side is dark and the other side is light. The solved puzzle is a slightly skewed version of the Finnish flag. (The actual flag is a dark blue cross on a white background.) In order to make the puzzle 'work', it is necessary that none of the pieces can be turned over, so their shapes must not be mirror-symmetric, and the area to be filled also cannot be mirror symmetric. The one exception to this is the rectangle in the...
