Two colors have 9 balls (blue and black) and two colors have 10 balls (red and yellow). After solving, the balls of each color must for...

I noticed a lot of interesting board and stick burrs coming out on Ishino's site so I decided to make batch of them. After looking at a couple dozen designs I chose six for their representation of the various concepts and levels of difficulty.This and the Quads and Rings 1 are probably the entry-level puzzles in this category when it comes to difficulty. Worm Inside is fairly basic, with the added twist of two smaller acrylic "worms" that are to be inserted alongside the wood wenge sticks. A tri...

Very slight UV color fading is present on the Maple pieces. See photo for detail. This copy has no signature or date. ***************...

This copy is made from Ash and Bloodwood, which is different from t...

When I saw this design on Ishino's site, I couldn't resist asking Alfons's permission to make it. A neat little puzzle, with a tricky level 24 solution.

Burrtools solution available upon request after you've had a...
