Description

One Hand Box is an unusual puzzle that evolved out of a commissioned packing puzzle. It was meant to be a one-off, but then Rob decided to share this very enjoyable packer with more than just one lucky fellow (albeit with permission of the commissioner who was very gracious to allow it). I don't know what the original puzzle was like since there has been some changes and refinement into this puzzle for the masses to enjoy. But One Hand Box is a delight!

First, the puzzle is received as a sealed up and heavily lacquered rectangular box. Then as the solver pushes the lid open, the "pin" piece pops up. Like a grenade, when the pin is pulled, pieces will go flying! Hopefully to less than fatal consequences for the solver though! The challenges of the puzzle is three-fold:
First the solver has to figure out how everything goes back together just for resetting the puzzle, which is no mean feat! But the lid refuses to slide open any further than halfway!

So secondly, the solver has to find the alternative way to pack the pieces inside.

And once that's all said and done, the true meaning of the puzzle's name finally comes up! Try to pack the pieces back inside with only one hand! It seems challenging since the magnets on the pieces love to push against each other to frustrate all solvers, but it's easier than one would think if one pays careful attention to the order of insertion into the box.

Please keep in mind that next week is the Thanksgiving celebration so I may be delayed in shipping out puzzles until the Monday after Thanksgiving at the earliest.

I accept and prefer using Zelle as my payment method of choice.
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 accept Wise for international buyers.

I am willing to consider other 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).
Insurance is optional, but buyer has to cover it if it is desired.
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.

Tenchi by Frederic Boucher

Tenchi is a fun little assembly puzzle that Cubic Dissection made from Fredric's design. It's an "anti-slide" puzzle where all of the pieces have to put into the square and positioned around the single cube notch in a way that none of the pieces can slide right back out of the square on either end. It sounds impossible, but I promise that it's very doable even if you have never tried this style of puzzling before.If it ends up being too confusing or demanding to fully solve, I have a solution Bu...

Knot-a-2x2 by Rex Perez

Knot-a-2x2 made for a wild flashback to my younger years playing with a Rubik's Cube. I'll be honest here, I struggled just as badly here as I did back then with the Rubik's Cube hahaha.I had fun with Rex's prior designs when he was mostly selling coin releases and burrs, so when I heard that he was designing an SD for seemingly the first time, I knew I had to get it. And hearing that it's based on the design of a Rubik's Cube, that just sealed the deal.The goal is to scramble up the cube so you...

Grooved 6 Board Burr #7 by Juno

The Grooved Board Burr series was an amazing innovation in the design of board burrs where instead of just burr plates that the solver has to figure out how to take apart, they now have to deal with blocking pins obstructing their ability to dismantle this burr. I only ever had the luck to try #6 and #7 in the series, but they were both an absolute blast to solve!It's the hardest one in the series and stays stable for an impressively long time. But the final few moves before the first piece can ...
