Coin Maze
Coin maze is based on a circular maze pattern designed by Adrian Fisher as a company logo. The puzzle is a "misleading" mechanical maze, as it feels that you can cross a wall at some places, whereas you are blocked at other places where there seemsto be no wall.

Triple Crossed Burr
The Triple Crossed Burr looks great assembled. Unfortunately, this is the unassembled version. Despite Tom Lensch being ever gracious in sending me a duplicate copy of the paper assembly solution sequence, and my multiple inept attempts, I've been unable to reassemble the puzzle. A very nice display piece upon completion. Winning bidder to please e-mail for correct paypal address. Thank you.

King's Tomb
Japanese pocket puzzle. New and sealed in box! I am not certain of the goal, since the instructions on the outside are in Japanese. It looks like it has 8 pieces with a coffin and pattern of black lines on each. Perhaps try to get each coffin in its own walled-off area.

Shunting Puzzle
I'm not sure of the name of this one. The goal is presumably to switch the red and the white balls. I could not for the life of me figure out how to remove the ball that is the furthest from the shunt. Let me know if you figure out how to do it! The post with the white cap is loose, so you need to lift that rail up a bit so things line up properly. Could be solidifed with some glue.

Boston has a subway system in which
there are two North-South lines crossing over two East-west lines with
connections between them at some of the cross-over points. Imagine a
future Boston subway system with ten North-South lines and ten East-West
lines. Oskar van Deventer imagined such a system and built the most
perverse transfer design possible. This rendition of his puzzle was
greatly enhanced by the fertive mind of Dave Rossetti who suggested a
