Stickman #13 - Chopstick Box (~2012)
i suppose this is technically the third edition of this puzzle, made about five years after the originals, but according to Rob: Originally the first and second editions were only a few months apart back in 2007.  These days, since they were made in the same year and so long ago, I kind of lump them together into the same edition run.   The one in the picture is from the next generation, around 5 years later.  It is what I would say is from a 2nd edition run, because I l...
