Description

I’m offering up this puzzle as I continue to prune my personal collection.

As luck would have it I was able to re-acquire this puzzle I made in 2012 (I think I made less than 10 of these from a unique piece of Afzelia Burl I had on hand at the time) from a puzzle collector who happens to be selling off his collection.

I made a box to store this puzzle in, it’s made from Satinwood with a Walnut top and Slipfeathers.

Here’s Stewart’s description:

“It represents a conversion of Patio Block #82 from an eight-piece box-packing problem to a five piece interlocking cube.”

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

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.

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).

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...
