Description

I have decided to offer up this puzzle in an effort to further thin out my personal collection.

This is a clever design by Stewart that is nicely made by Henry, which was presented at IPP 25 in Helsinki, Finland marking his third participation in the Exchange.

Stewart wrote:

“Six polyomino pieces fit into a 3x3x3 box that has a cubic block attached to the top midpoint of one side, hence the name. It was presumed to have only one solution, but I was never sure until Bill Cutler confirmed it by computer.”

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Singmaster Packing - David Singmaster (1971) by John Devost

Tube It In - William Strijbos by John Devost

It seems hard to believe that it's been almost 20 years since I first made a small run of this clever packing puzzle design in 2006. William has graciously allowed me to offer up another run as there were only a dozen copies made in 2006.The original metal version was William’s exchange puzzle at the IPP21 in Tokyo.This version is made using many wood varieties and includes a Stand. The entire puzzle has been ‘triple buffed’ giving it a very nice sheen.Overall size is a little over 4...
