Wooden cube - 3D jigsaw cut 27 pieces - Keith Winegar
Wooden cube, jigsaw-cut, 27 pieces, 4 inches wide, from Keith Winegar Puzzle Works, 1994. Little sheet comes with it, but doesn't give you any instructions (not like you need them; it's a 3D jigsaw, after all). Not sure what wood this is, somewhat redish in color, not super-dense. Looks nice. Easy beginner puzzle for your non-puzzleist friends.

Stewart Coffin 111-D
Stewart Coffin's unnamed puzzle, number 111-D in his list of designs. This copy is made of Cherry and East Indian Rosewood. Stewart made one in 1995. Made of two kinds of pieces, three of each. Requires patience and coordinate motion to assemble. Related to Lost and Found, sold in the last auction, and Lucky Star, available in this auction. More confusing to disassemble than the other puzzles in the 111-X family. A neat and very rare Coffin design. The fit and finish are very good. ...

A very tricky puzzle to assemble as it requires a lot of "back and forth" movement of pieces. Signed by me on the inside of the puzzle. Buyers assume actual PayPal fees and...
