Description

This puzzle is beautifully made by Brian!

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction, in original packaging!

The pieces seem to move quite freely leading you to believe that mass confusion is right around the bend!

Here's what Brian said: Please visit Wood Wonders to stay informed of his wonderful puzzles!

“This is a design I wanted to make because I love puzzles with interesting frames. This pinwheel sort of frame contain four pieces that are two matching pairs. Dissasemble and reassemble the pieces. These pieces move about within the frame quite freely despite the rather close tolerance of the frame to the pieces. I was afraid there may be some unintended solutions but I was not able to find any. Not terribly difficult but a pretty good challenge that seems easier than it really is!”

Woods are Peroba Rosa and Bolivian Rosewood

Five Woods - Stewart Coffin by John Devost

I made several copies of this very tricky design by Stewart and thought I’d make a few more.This copy is made from wood that I salvaged from an antique upright piano with Padauk Slipfeathers.Everything has been ‘triple buffed’.Here’s an excerpt from Stewart:“In case you haven't already discovered, polyominoes is the name given to puzzle pieces made of squares joined different ways. A popular recreation is to fit them snugly into a square or rectangular tray. The long-time popularity of...

Parcel Post by John Devost

This classic design was one of my earliest puzzle builds in the early 2000’s that I made for Bill Cutler.It features 18 pieces with four solutions, however finding one will definitely keep you busy for some time!I’ve always wanted to revisit it but in a smaller scale, I used a 3/16” unit size with the overall size being approximately 6” x 4”.The woods used were salvaged from an old upright piano from the 1920’s that I layed out the keys in a wall hanging (see last photo).

Gouge Packing Puzzle - Gaétan Gouge by John Devost

I previously made a few of this surprisingly difficult packing puzzle by Gaétan and at the time I didn’t have any contact info for him but then a few years ago I was surprised by one of his puzzle purchases in ‘Paradise’.My plan was to make another run but life kinda’ took a turn so now I’ve managed to sort myself out and began making another run.Allard kindly blogged about the copies I made in 2014, here’s an excerpt:https://allardspuzzlingtimes.blogspot.com/2014/04/gouge-packing-p...

My One and Only - Stewart Coffin by John Devost

This awesome design by Stewart is one of my favourite, it appears so simple but is fiendishly difficult to solve.Here’s an excerpt from Stewart:“The problem here was to find a combination using the five non-symmetrical pentominoes (made of five joined squares) plus one other pentomino that fit into a rectangular tray one way only. After a long search, this goal was finally achieved.”Comes with a signed and dated sheet.Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.
