So once upon a time, Cubic Dissection came out with a lovely puzzle called Slideways that people just went nuts over. It was a 3-piece burr that assembled unlike any burr puzzle before it with coordinate motion moves! It was such an excellent introductory puzzle to the genre of coordinate motion puzzles, also co-mo puzzles for faster speech and slang. It had it all! It was small, easily shared around to even non-puzzlers and simple enough to convey the sheer magic of the deceptively simple and yet oddly shaped pieces of wood.

This is not that puzzle.

This is the sequel to that puzzle. Double Slideways was born from Raymond's desire to take the above concept and reinvent it in the form of a 6 piece burr and by every metric, he succeeded! Double Slideways is a lovely puzzle that I truly enjoy taking apart and putting it back together. But unlike with Slideways, I wouldn't share it with non-puzzlers. The dexterity and brain twisting it takes to put it back together is just too much for our more innocent non-puzzling friends.

It's in this lovely canary sapwood that I just find absolutely stunning and consider it by far the most gorgeous form of this puzzle. I almost regret letting it go, but if I'm already selling other co-mo burrs such as my 4 NOS burrs and Quad Slideways, then Double Slideways should follow its friends and relatives out the door as well.

DDD Burr Set by Darryl Adams / Bryan Turner / Eric Fuller

The DDD Burr Set or Darryl's Dense Dozen is a very nice and gentle introduction to the vast world of burrs. Burrs come in a wide variety of wild shapes that consist of notched pieces that when put together, creates a three-dimensional shape. But the DDD Burr Set only involves making 6-piece burrs in the iconic burr shape that represents the genre despite how the most complex and advanced burrs are formed into completely different shapes than this burr set makes. Darryl came up with the set of bu...

New Old School (NOS) Burr #1 & #2 (Compressed & Transfer) by Gregory Benedetti

Gregory took one look at the traditional 6-piece burr style and decided to design a 6-piece burr that would torment and screw with the minds of all prospective burr solvers. He cut out triangular notches, added triangular cuts, and introduced a wild coordinate-motion moves integral to taking this burr apart and back together.For such a remarkable idea, it's oddly hard to find anyone who is willing to make copies of this series! Eric noted that it'd be a nightmare to make and turned it down. But ...

Al Bus by Jordi Gallen

Al Bus is a fantastic printed puzzle that I had to get just for the appeal to my inner child Harry Potter fan. Growing up with that book series and movies left a life-long mark on me as a fantasy fan and when the puzzle based on the book series came along, I had to get it for myself!It's a wonderful SD puzzle that took a few hours to solve and was a lovely time. I loved spotting all of the little references in this one and hope that a similar fan can enjoy this puzzle just as much as I have over...
