Brian's description: This very clever design was a real challenge for me. Two of the pieces are captive in the frame. This means there were several extra steps to the finishing and gluing up process and it resulted in a higher price for a puzzle like this. But making it was the easy part. Inserting the third piece into the frame is what you are tasked with! Oil and wax finish. 

Duel Kit by Alfons Eyckmans.  The goal is to remove the two swords from the cage and 8 burr sticks.  Very cool design!!

Goal is two-fold.  First pack in all the pieces excluding the single cube, then pack in all the pieces including the single cube (very clever).  This is the larger of two versions.Buyer pays PayPal fees
