Description



I’m offering up my personal copy of Alexander’s awesome puzzle design.

I was originally given permission to make a small run of this design, I only made a half dozen with this one being the last one I have available.


It comes with a 6x6 tray configuration made from Black Limba with a Red Zebrawood bottom.  Slipfeathers are Leopardwood.  Pieces are a mix of Canarywood, Cherry and Makore.


Here’s Alexander’s description:


“First of my ‘Darwin puzzles’ starting with one cube, the next piece is the previous one with one cube added.”  

Main challenge: 

6x6 square - 1 solution 

9x4 rectangle - 4 solutions


Other possible challenges in blue with number of solutions, (see last photo):

Left to right: 12, 11, 6, 4, 3, 2


Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

I previously made a few of this surprisingly difficult packing puzzle by Gaétan and at the time I didn’t have any contact info for him but then a few years ago I was surprised by one of his puzzle purchases in ‘Paradise’.My plan was to make another run but life kinda’ took a turn so now I’ve managed to sort myself out and began making another run.Allard kindly blogged about the copies I made in 2014, here’s an excerpt:https://allardspuzzlingtimes.blogspot.com/2014/04/gouge-packing-p...
