Description

Juno definitely knows how to take a classic puzzle and add in a twist to make it seem completely fresh again! Not only is this a twist on the standard burr-style puzzle, it's also a twist on the grooved burrs that Juno likes to make.

Gravitational Burr is a burr with a sneaky surprise hiding. Simply put, there's a ball bearing inside which prevents the burr pieces from rapidly coming apart. The solver has to work to manipulate the ball inside based on auditory and tactile cues through a maze until the first piece comes off. It's intimidating, but surprisingly manageable. Either the solver ends up backtracking to the beginning or the pieces come apart. There isn't really a fear of getting "lost" and dealing with a misshapen lump of burr parts that refuse to come apart or reassemble back into a neat shape. It's a fun tactile pleasure, but I'm of the personal opinion that this puzzle is more of a challenge to one's patience than brain.

Burr-Tools file can be provided with the puzzle if it is needed.

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 am willing to consider other desired 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).

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.

Please notice that with the Thanksgiving holiday coming up, my shipping out this puzzle may be delayed. It will still go out within the 5 day period dictated by PuzzleParadise, but please be patient if I end up using most of that time.

Trick Opening 6PB by Juno

6PB is definitely an easy puzzle as Juno warns in the description of the webpage when I bought this puzzle. But hey it's great to have an easy win compared to many, many other puzzles bragging about tying my brain into knots and promising months of struggling. So that wasn't any deterrent to me!While I took apart this trick burr in 2 minutes, and then 10 minutes to put it back together, I still had a blast with it! It's definitely a fun trick and I really enjoyed running through the solve of thi...

Loco Lock by Boaz Feldman

Loco Lock......Don't buy this one. I went slightly loco in a literal sense. This lock is the most innocuous of all puzzle locks I have ever bought from Boaz. There's no unusual features or obvious differences from an ordinary lock unlike others from the same maker who often were more merciful with obvious quirks and places to start investigating when puzzlers first attempt solving them. But for this lock, there's nothing obvious to raise a curious brow at. And yet I suffered so much because of t...
