Description
I’m reluctantly offering up this gorgeous puzzle!

If you’re a fan of Coordinate motion puzzles than this puzzle is the one to have!

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Woods are Wenge - Padauk - Purpleheart and Acacia


This particular puzzle is #2 of a Limited Edition of 38


Ray had this to say about this very difficult assembly puzzle:


“This is called the 'Four Hands Puzzle' because even after you have figured out how the pieces should go together, it helps if you have four hands to complete the assembly. This is the most difficult puzzle in the series, and my personal favorite. Given the complexity of both the relative motion and the geometry of the pieces, I believe that this is one of the most complex coordinate motion puzzles ever made. The puzzle is difficult to fabricate because all the interaction between the pieces requires that very tight tolerances be maintained. The craftsmen at Pelikan did a great job as usual, and they created a really really nice looking puzzle with beautiful contrasting woods. Enjoy.”

Four-Piece Serially Interlocking Cube & Modified 3-Piece version - Stewart Coffin Design #93 by John Devost
I’ve made so many of this design that I can’t even remember how many, it’s one of my favourites of Stewart’s designs.  I often would make them when making a fresh batch of wood sticks for cube designs and when I last did that I mistakenly glued up a version that ended up being only 3 pieces instead of 4.  I’m offering it up here as well as a correct 4 piece version both in Maple.Second photo shows the pieces of the 4 piece version.Both copies have been triple buffed as always and c...

11 ‘F’ Pentominominoes by John Devost
I spotted this design on Ishino’s site early this year and decided to make a copy.  The designer is unknown and features one solution in the 4x4x4 box that I made for it.  It also features only one solution in a flat 8x8 configuration.Both solutions contain voids making this a very tricky solve and I also made extra cubes that can be used in the solve but not really sure if that helps or hinders your progress? (See last photo)Maple was used from an antique upright piano with Padauk Slipfea...

Christmas 2001 - Stewart Coffin #182 by John Devost
I originally made a small amount of this wonderful design in 2006 (sold at CubicDissection) and thought I might make a few more copies.This particular copy is crafted from Maple from an antique upright piano with Padauk slipfeathers.Stewart makes note of this particular version:“The Original Christmas has two design flaws - a piece duplicated and a symmetrical piece.  Both flaws have been corrected in this 2018 version.  Both versions have only one solution.”Entire puzzle has been ‘tri...

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...
