Description

I’m offering up this incredibly difficult plate Burr by Alfons.

This 18 piece puzzle features a level move count of 31.3.4.3.2.3.2.1.1.2.2.1.2.

This puzzle predates Alfons laser engraving that he now currently produces.

Please Note: This puzzle will ship disassembled, so keep that in mind if you bid on it. I hopelessly tried assembling it (via Burrtools) several times only to realize I had incorrectly assembled it and had to start over!

Burrtools file will be supplied to the winning bidder.

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

Please note that funds are in US Dollars

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.

The entire puzzle has been ‘triple buffed’ giving it a very nice sheen.Overall size is a little over 4...

Slipfeathers in the tray a...

Singmaster Packing - David Singmaster (1971) by John Devost

This design by Professor Singmaster (sadly passed away in 2023) was my very first puzzle offering at CubicDissection back in 2005, it’s 25 pieces that can be packed in the box 22 ways.I was going through my ‘Salvaged Piano Wood’ (see last photo of my keyboard wall hanging, that I made from our upright piano that was produced in the ‘roaring ‘20’s!), so I figured I’d make more of this classic puzzle with this antique lumber.As always everything gets my ‘triple buffing finish’ th...

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 much smaller scale. This size is small enough to fit in a pocket so definitely not as tiny as Allan Boardman’s version!As always everything is given my ‘Triple Buffing’ process making for smooth buttery finish.Crafted from Canarywood...
