Description

This Alfons burr has quite the sneaky first move, it has six plate type pieces that have been carefully made using shoulder joinery for strength.

The nicely figured Zebrawood pairs well with the Walnut pieces, featuring a level move count of 24.8.4.2.2.

Please Note: There’s a slight sawcut on the edge of one Walnut piece that can be seen in the last photo.

Shipping cost will need to be determined at close of auction.

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.

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). Slipfeath...
