Variation on a theme
Variation on a theme was Simon Dickersons exchange puzzle at IPP 19 in London, 1999.You will immediately recognise the tangram shapes, but...... on closer inspection several pieces are different, having some corners cut off.And that parallellogram is a misfit, it is too large! What is going on here?Don't panic, just pack the 7 pieces in the square tray.This is a great puzzle to hand someone after they solve the tangram square.

Surround Unique Purpleheart and Yellowheart Copy by Kohno Ichiro
Designed and first released at IPP in 2009, Surround is closely related to the 3/4/5 cubes designs by Ichiro. In this case, six pieces must be used to surround the solid cube in such a way that is self-supporting. Two solutions using magnets are possible, with another "rule-breaker" solution that does not use magnets and covers the cube completely! The finished shape is pleasingly symmetrical and displays well.Puzzle Pusher has an excellent blog review of this puzzle.Precision wood puzzles ...

Escalating Puzzle Box
Eric's description: The idea for the Escalating Box came from a couple of different mechanisms I'd been fooling around with. I was going to release them as two fairly simple separate boxes but realized that I could put them both into one trickier box. I made a poll on our Facebook Group, and everyone overwhelmingly voted for a single, more difficult box. Done and done!I got to the drawing board and realized not only could I put both mechanisms together, but that they would interact making the...

Havana's Box #2
Description from cubicdissection :"The second in the Havanas Box series is named the "Heather", after the
one of the friendly part-timers behind the bar. It's a step up in
difficulty from the first box...easy enough to get started but then a
few moves in you hit a wall. The solution is fairly unique and I think
it will be a lot of fun to discover. Tough to say much more about it
without giving a lot away...all I can say is pay attention and the
solution will match your observations.
