Juno - Pisa #2 + Cubin Burr (2017)

⟬ Juno Fortnight ⟭——[ puzzles designed by Junichi Yananose ]——17. Pisa #2 + Cubin Burr (2017)

from Juno's description:

Juno designed Pisa in 1994 and it won a prize at Hikimi Puzzle Competition held in Japan. The eight pieces of Pisa have a through hole on the cube and this construction makes the puzzle relatively easy and gives multiple solutions. He decided to use blind holes for Pisa #2 and chose an elegant selection of the eight pieces among 16 possibilities to make the puzzle have a unique solution.

Cubin burr was designed to contain a cube inside and it has seven solutions if you don't put a cube in the burr. Once you put a cube in Cubin Burr, the puzzle becomes a lot more challenging and it requires eight moves to take the first piece apart.

He made Cubin Burr to have a slightly looser fitting because otherwise the burr tends to grab the internal cube in an unexpected way. You may have to use gravity to control the position of the internal cube when you assemble and disassemble the burr puzzle.

made from Victorian ash, oak, blackbean, and silver ash.
