Description


This puzzle was an Exchange Gift at IPP 35.


Here’s Bob’s description:


‘A Puzzle from the 4th Dimension’


“The 24-cell, or octaplex, is one of the six convex regular four-dimensional polytopes, analogs of the five Platonic solids. OCTAPLEX I is a perspective projection of an octaplex into three dimensions, dissected into five pieces made from the octahedral unit cells.


Goal: Assemble an octaplex.


Extra: Arrange the pieces in sequence so that each step either adds or moves exactly one octahedral cell. (Note: the cell shape can change as it moves.)”


Comes in original packaging.


Shipping cost will need to be determined at close of auction.

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...

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...

This classic design was one of my earliest puzzle builds in the early 2000’s that I made for Bill Cutler.It features 18 pieces with four solutions, however finding one will definitely keep you busy for some time!I’ve always wanted to revisit it but in a smaller scale, I used a 3/16” unit size with the overall size being approximately 6” x 4”.The woods used were salvaged from an old upright piano from the 1920’s that I layed out the keys in a wall hanging (see last photo). Slipfeath...
