12-Piece Separation
This puzzle is made by Lee
Krasnow, Lee has this to say about Stewart Coffins design
"Design notes: this difficult puzzle consists of 12 pieces,
ten of which are the same rotationally symmetrical shape. Of the remaining two,
one is missing an end block (it's the key piece) and the other one has that
missing end block augmented onto its side. They assemble into a symmetrical
cluster, and although the shape is not obvious, it is not too difficult to
figure out how the pieces ...

Kings Court
from pentangle/cleverwood.com“This puzzle is primarily meant to arouse and confuse you rather than lead you a
merry dance. A ball is concealed inside the assembly and obstructs the movement of the
pieces in certain locations. By orientating the puzzle in different ways the ball can be
moved, thus making it possible to take the assembly apart completely. You are next faced
with a much more difficult task - reassembly Including the ball! CAN YOU HOLD A
‘BALL’ IN THE ...

7-Woods Puzzle
This puzzle is made by Lee
Krasnow, Lee considers this puzzle a relatively easy puzzle as well as a very
beautiful puzzle. The design is made using 6 woods for each face of the cubic
design and one more wood for the interior or center of the puzzle pieces. It’s
complexity lies in the ability of the puzzle solver to match up each of the six
sides of the puzzle with the same woods so when the two halves of the puzzle
are joined the matching woods compliment each other. This puzzle ...

Diagonal Cube
This puzzle is a variation of
the Diagonal Burr, however you wouldn't think so from looking at it. Like many of Coffin's
designs, the six pieces of this puzzle represent a complete set of
non-symmetrical permutations, and will assemble in only one way. Disassembly is
possible on only one of the four-fold axes. This design is isomorphically the
same as many of Coffin's other puzzles such as Augmented
Four Corners and Triangular Prism, however the average
person will probably have ...

Second Stellation
The six pieces of this puzzle
all have the same shape, but different arrangements of the four colors of wood.
The pieces will assemble in many different ways to form the third stellation of
the rhombic dodecahedron. It is essentially a third stellation version of Stewart Coffin's Nova -- the obvious goal with
this puzzle is to get the same colored sticks to line up. There are other ways
to put the pieces together with color symmetry as well. Disassembly is possible
along any of the...

Fixed Sticks
By lengthening the triangular
stick segments of the Permuted
Third Stellation, a puzzle that resembles a nest of triangular sticks
results. At first glance one might expect to be able to simply pull one of them
out thus collapsing the whole thing... not so easy!
Comparing this puzzle to the Permuted Third Stellation, the
additional length of the triangular stick segments eliminates one of the two
solutions, and makes it so that the remaining unique solution is only able to
dis...

Diagonal Star
The Diagonal Star is a
variation of the Diagonal Burr.
All six pieces are identical. They are like the pieces in the Diagonal Burr, but with
the ends beveled to an edge. The resulting shape is the first Stellation of a
rhombic dodecahedron. It is assembled by making two subassemblies of three
pieces each, and sliding them together. This design is very old -- nobody
really knows who invented it. In Stewart Coffin's book Puzzling World of Polyhedral
Dissections, he writes:

Mark McCallum - The Trouble With U by Mark McCallum
This was my IPP design competition entry in 2006. It was my tribute to Nob Yoshigahara. I so love his Unhappy Adolescence puzzle based on the P pentomino+ 2x1x1 block, that I thought I would try a U pentomino +2x1x1 block and see what I could come up with. What I found was that 9 pieces plus a single cube would make a nice 4x4x4 puzzle. The puzzle consists of 4 pieces plus their mirror images and a self reflective piece plus the lone cube. Several problems can be dreamed up and attempted. T...
