Description

A handsome trick box made in marblewood and maple is quite the lovely box to store smaller puzzles inside!

I don't know who made this, but whoever did so was an excellent craftsman. The grains of the marblewood is very nice to look at, and the box was made with a nice angular design which is nice to see and hold.

Puzzling-wise, it's a trick box. That means it's only one step to open or a single 'trick' to the box. So don't expect it to take too long to solve. But it makes for a very nice storage container for other puzzles. Who doesn't like to put puzzles inside other puzzles?

For people planning out what they can put inside, the interior dimensions are 3 5/8 by 3 3/8 by 2 1/2 inches.

I accept and prefer using Zelle as my payment method of choice.
I accept Paypal. I prefer Friends & Family due to the IRS tax rules. But if you rather pay with Goods & Services, I will accommodate that preference.

I accept Wise for international buyers.

I am willing to consider other payment methods.

Shipping is USPS or UPS

Buyer chooses the shipping service and shipping speed, First Class or Priority (assuming the package is under the weight limit for First Class).
Insurance is optional, but buyer has to cover it if it is desired.
I ask the winner to hold off on paying until after I calculate and message final shipping costs to be added to the final bid.

Gravitational Burr by Juno

Juno definitely knows how to take a classic puzzle and add in a twist to make it seem completely fresh again! Not only is this a twist on the standard burr-style puzzle, it's also a twist on the grooved burrs that Juno likes to make.Gravitational Burr is a burr with a sneaky surprise hiding. Simply put, there's a ball bearing inside which prevents the burr pieces from rapidly coming apart. The solver has to work to manipulate the ball inside based on auditory and tactile cues through a maze unti...

Edge Corner Cube Variation and Non-Void Cube Variation by Christoph Lohe

Edge Corner Cube Variation and Non-Void Cube Variation are very unusual TICs designed by Lohe and printed by Andrew Crowell.Their novelty is the fact that pieces are attached by diagonal connectors which makes for a large degree of freedom in what potential moves can be made. While they aren't easy tics to be solved, it is likely that they are actually fairly simple solves in comparison to the potential tics lurking in the possibility space of diagonally linked tics. I've copied over...

Abraham's Whale by Idan Shvartz

Abraham's Whale is a difficult puzzle that I found frustrating and tough. Truth be told, I just gave up after the first few steps and I don't have any further desire to push deeper into this puzzle. So the internals are almost completely untouched by me and is pristine! I've decided to just let it go to a more deserving buyer.Bluntly put, I think the first step or two are too difficult for puzzlers to guess at, and I'm planning on sending over some hints to make it a bit easier for the potential...
