Convolution - Stewart Coffin by John Devost

This is my favourite cube design by Stewart and I’ve crafted countless copies over the years, however this particular copy was made entirely from Maple.

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.
