Description

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 think there are only 5 or 6 other designs out there that make use of corner attachments, but these are the only ones that Lohe came up with himself.

Unlike most other TICs, I think it's best to play with these as a disassembly problem before trying to put them back together. But it will be decided by the buyer whether they should be shipped assembled or disassembled.

The prints are in good condition, but on the light blue cube, there are some tiny discolored spots as shown in the 4th picture.

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.

Splice by Alexander Magyarics

Splice is a puzzle that loves to slip and slide all over the place! Pieces don't stay stable for long so I have to be careful to keep track of where each piece is or otherwise the pieces get mixed up and I'm at a dead end all over again. I freely admit I used Burr Tools to put this puzzle back together instead of trying to reverse my steps because I didn't remember how everything came apart in the slightest! It's not too hard to take apart despite the plentiful number of dead-ends, b...

A Bolt from the BLUE by Ali Morris

A Bolt from the BLUE is Ali's IPP40 exchange puzzle which delighted many lucky IPP visitors at the time. Because it's not just any puzzle (or any bolt puzzle either) to test the solver's mind, but also a joke to make people laugh once they achieve the goal to remove the washer (which isn't visible in the beginning). I was very amused once I found the trick to it and how most prior solvers must have shared at least a chuckle in honour of Ali as well.It's a puzzle that I think most peo...

Bananas by Jon Keegan

It's the summertime in USA and time for Keegan to release a new puzzle! Except he's releasing TWO new puzzles. Since I can't remotely afford them with my current budget and lack of change hiding in sofas near me, how about I sell an older Keegan puzzle to pay for the new one(s)? Yeah that's right, Bananas is on the market for you hungry monkeys!Anyways, there isn't much for me to personally tell about this puzzle. It's in near-mint condition with me being very careful to not scratch up any part ...

Six Faces by Andrew Crowell

Six Faces is a tricky disassembly puzzle which follows in the same vein as Six Rings. There are pieces which comes out fairly soon, but then the solver is stuck dealing with multiple smaller pieces remaining which need to be manipulated without much visible before the puzzle comes fully apart: https://woodwondersonline.com/collections/gallery-1/products/six-faceIt may seem to be a type of burr, but there are rotational moves, so it's closer to being a TIC that's just in a non-cuboid sh...
