This attractive piece of art is also a dang tricky puzzle. Four sticks interact with a straightforward cage in vary non-straightforward ways. The unique level 24.6.3 solution means what it says - this puzzle's not joking around. Figuring out which piece goes where is only the beginning, since some of them switch around during assembly. Order at your own peril - I'm shipping this assembled in the spirit of friendship - craftsman is not liable for any lost sleep!Construction of solid wood througho...

Rail Box looks like just another caged burr at first glance. It's only after playing with it that the genius of the design is apparent. Four identical vertical pieces dance around the two longer horizontal pieces to create a unique level 18 solution. Not only do you need to determine the position, but orientation becomes important as well. A nice challenge for the seasoned puzzler, yet approachable for the intermediate / beginner.************************************************************For mu...

Made in the same fashion (and intended as a companion to) 2014's "Rail Box", Nine Theta takes the same piston concept even further down the road. While the solution is a couple moves fewer than the Rail Box (15.3 instead of 18), it's more confusing due to the increased number of pieces. This is a damn difficult puzzle, even for the seasoned collector!Construction of this puzzle is excellent, with through cage joinery, milled solid pieces and bevels all around. Fit is dead-on.********************...

Kevin Sadler wrote about it:“Triangle ring looks like it might be fairly easy due to the huge amount of manipulation space available with the 2 holes in the frame. However counteracting this is the fact that the pieces to be placed have a total of 26 cubies and thus there is only a single gap to allow the pieces to move once packed. The solution is an absolutely beautiful logical progression which you will only find by thought and not random movements. A brilliant starter for this release seri...

STC #244 Double Cross hand crafted and signed in pencil by Stewart Coffin.Double Cross was Tom Rodgers exchange puzzle at IPP 29 in San Francisco. Designated #240 by Stewart Coffin, it looks fairly simple with six thicker sticks intersected by six thinner sticks. Solving it is anything but, as the angles are very confusing and you always end up with that one piece that won't fit. I'm delighted with this puzzle, it's a heck of a lot of fun. Difficult enough to challenge an experienced puzzler whi...

Similar to the wildly popular 4L design, Box Rebellion is a tricky multiple-step packing puzzle with a single solution. The four identical pieces must be packed into the box but are blocked by an odd-shaped acrylic slider over the top which only allows one side of the box to be accessible at a time.  The solution includes multiple rotations.For multiple items, combined shipping is available.

     This is one of two entered in IPP 2020 and was awarded a top ten vote receiver. The wood species used are canarywood, padauk, redheart, yellowheart and ebony. The unusual canarywood is spalted and transitions from heartwood to sapwood. It also features grain matching on all four corners. Of all the versions I've made, this is one of my favorites and the only one to utilize ebony.     Below is a description found on cubicdissection  Dee's widely acclaimed "Where's My Hammer?"
