IPP 26 Exchange Puzzle
Here's an IPP 26 exchange puzzle from Boston. I have no idea who the designer or craftsman is. These pieces were inside an unopened ziplock bag. No guarantees, but it looks interesting.

Domino Block (Devost, Deventer)
"Domino Block" designed by Oskar and crafted by Devost. Five identical pieces will construct an
8x6x7 cube. Each puzzle is handcrafted of fine exotic woods and signed by the
craftsman. Twenty copies were made for sale. Not especially difficult to solve,
but fun to manipulate and very attractive. The precise fit and excellent finish
make this puzzle a joy to handle.

Wine Bottle Puzzle
This is a puzzle you're supposed to strap onto the top of a wine bottle, presumably to keep someone from opening it until they've solved the puzzle. Quite hard for the "common man", easy for us puzzlists. I've no idea who made this. This does weigh 1 lb 5 ounces, so think twice about getting it "cheap" when considering postage costs.

CM13 (Coordinate Motion 13) Andreas Röver's
CM13; Andreas Röver designed it and I bought it from him at IPP29. It's an unusual coordinate motion puzzle in that it just doesn't slide straight apart, there's actually 3 or 4 coordinate moves to get it apart. Now the bad news; fairly high friction; even if you know how it comes apart, it's still difficult. And one of the pieces was apparently glued together (see pic) by the folks who manufactured this for Andreas. It's a solid glue job (hasn't come apart), but not the cleanest in the world. ...

Pagoda # 3 (25 moves)
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A DUTCH AUCTION WITH 21 TOTAL COPIES AVAILABLEThis sequential movement puzzle box is the third in the MakDaw Pagoda series & it is quite challenging at 25 movements to open. Closing this box is also quite fun & challenging- in as much as if the solver does not pay attention to what he is doing- then he will most likely open the box up again. Each box comes with sealed instructions on how to open the box, and the puzzle is "signed", & numbered (on the inside) by M...

Lockout
This is an interesting lock puzzle that is actually designed as a game. One person sets the combination by choosing which of the green sliders slide into the grooves in the middle blue blocks, then sliding the blue blocks around to scramble them. The solver attempts to find the configuration of blue blocks that allows him to move the green sliders into the grooves in the blue blocks and unshackle the lock. If a blue block is in the top position, it can also be rotated 180 degrees.The lock is ...

Parcel post
A nice copy of the venerable "parcel Post" puzzle crafted by John Devost. Parcel post is a difficult packing puzzle.
The goal of the puzzle is to pack the 18 solid walnut pieces into the mahogany
tray. Althought there are at least two known solutions, this is not an easy
task, and will keep even the most skilled puzzler busy for some time.

Choreographed Motion
This is an 4 piece choreographed motion interlocking puzzle. It was Andreas Röver's exchange puzzle for IPP 29. According to his blog (http://www.andreas-roever.de/puzzles.html):The puzzle itself is
not very hard, but it is the first puzzle that I am aware of that requires multiple coordinated motion moves.
