A rare puzzle by Tom Lensch. Boxed Burr from IPP17. It is a 6 piece burr in a box. Not overly difficult but interesting. This is an older puzzle. A little about myself and the puzzles. I am a solver / collector. I try to collect various types of puzzles from various designers / makers. I rotate new ones in to the collection and like to pass along puzzles to others. All the puzzles I sell are solved at least once by me. My home is smoke free and pet free. I keep the humidity where the puzzles ar...

N-Closed is a two-step challenge. First objective is to put together a 4x4x3 cube from six pieces. Once completed the trickier part is to do the same within the frame. The frame has a number of fixed cubes in strategic positions to increase the complexity.I ordered the "surprise me" version from Brian, which meant that each of the three pairs of pieces would be a different random wood. I was very pleasantly surprised when I got the puzzle, the pieces are made from Sucupira, Mexican Greenheart a...

This is a very interesting (and fairly difficult) packing puzzle from the wonderful mind of Goh Pit Khiam. Crafter by the master craftsman Tom Lensch the goal is to place the 4 pieces into the box to make it appear full, from the front. There are finger manipulation openings on the back and base.The design is very clever and the solution has a few stages and a really nice aha moment too. The Box is finished with Brass Pins to give it a unique look and feel.A real collectors piece.

Designed in 1996 by Akio Kamei, this box is meant to look like a Christmas Present. You can turn the ribbon but opening the lid is not a trivial job, although only minimal steps are required. Walnut, Oak.

Description from CubicDissection: New Melting Block by John Rausch is an improved version of Tom Obeirne's original Melting Block puzzle. This paradoxical 3-D packing puzzle has two unique assemblies, one using seven pieces and the other using all eight. There are two possible solutions for each assembly.The seven-piece solution seems to fill the box entirely, with little room to spare. The leftover block seems far too large to fit in the box...yet somehow, impossibly, the eighth piece does fit...

The Stomachion is perhaps the world's oldest puzzle. Very difficult to solve. this 14-piece puzzle is attributed to Archimedes of Greece (287 BC - 212 BC). Each of the pieces has an area that is a rational fraction (a multiple of 1/48th) of the total area of the dissected parallelogram.

"I don't normally make flat puzzles, but this one by Jerry intrigued me. The goal is to switch the darker end pieces from one side to the other. Simple, right? How about no, Scott. If you do it perfectly it's 89 moves to exchange them. Good luck!Construction of this puzzle is quite nice, with mitered corners and a groovy acrylic top that shows the starting position of the pieces. Fit is, well, flat. Plenty of room to move the pieces inside, this puzzle should have no problems in high humidity en...

"I have been wanting to make this one ever since Alex sent me the design. He has just been producing so many cool designs lately, it took me a while to get around to it. Pillar is four pieces that must be inserted into the unique box and they fill the openings completely.I had acquired some very nice holly and wanted to set off the face of this box with it. The woods used for this box are especially nice. I really love the Pistachio wood. I managed to sang a few small pieces when my wood supplie...

Festival in Ottawa is Osanori Yamamoto’s IPP35 entry - the frame features two unique challenges for the 6 wood pieces: first sliding them through a small "Entrance Gate" and then inserting them through the restricted opening. 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.

"Eight challenges in one puzzle! This should keep you busy for a while. I really enjoyed building and playing with these. I have not yet solved all 8 versions. Slide Swipe is a series of 8 tray packing puzzles, each using the same 5x5 tray with a 3x3 opening on top and various subsets of 12 2D pieces. On the Lacewood version, the pieces can be stored in the bottom of the tray. Both puzzles have 1/4" black acrylic pieces."Puzzle was solved once and stored properly. Includes bag for storing piec...

A unique anti-slide puzzle in 3-dimensions! The pieces inside form a soma cube, but the real challenge comes in trying to fill the top surface in anti-slide conditions (no pieces fall down or move when the box is slid form side to side). Puzzle was properly stored.

“2D and 3D packing problems are my favourites, especially those with only a few pieces, together with a sufficient level of difficulty. I hope you will like Pincers and add it to your collection. You do not need to create the illusion of a full cube inside (like we all do with amazing packing designs by Osanori). Just fit the three pieces below the top layer. So what is the clue here? – the shapes of the pieces and box opening. Study them well to eliminate a huge number of possible assemblie...
