Description

Ovoloid is a bit of a strange burr design that Juno came up with. First off, it's not made of burr sticks, but burr plates which isn't that rare of an idea, but is a niche category within the greater space of the burr puzzle genre. Secondly, it has an internal structure that the 6 burr plates are interwoven into which is visible from the start by seeing the seventh triple-stick wenge piece holding the rest of the burr together.

It was fun working my way through the burr's maze and like usual with Juno's designs, he puts a focus on designing it so that the burr pieces stay relatively stable for most of the solve up to the last few moves to pull everything apart. Too many burrs get very unstable and annoying trying to hold it all steady to progress in the solve making for a less pleasant puzzling experience. It's also fairly large which is more enjoyable to hold in my hands and mess around with compared to smaller burrs which can feel more cramped at times.

It's been kept in excellent condition with no scratches, dents, or marring. The main pieces are a lovely sandwich of sapwood bubinga, tasmanian myrtle, fijian mahogany, and camphor laurel along with the blocking wenge sticks.

Turtle Trip by Gerard Hudson

I almost feel like I'm selling off my grandparent's ashes and belongings with this one. Turtle Trip was the very first major 3d-printed puzzle I bought that wasn't just a packer or tic puzzle while also being one of the first sequential discovery puzzles which introduced me to the ever-popular puzzling genre.It's sentimental on multiple levels how much I've enjoyed keeping this puzzle around for years on end. I even miss Gerard since he vanished from MPD 3 years ago. I sincerely hope he simply d...

Archipuzzle by Lucie Pauwels

Archipuzzle is actually a sequel of sorts to Stuffing Burr despite both puzzles being designed by different people.Just like Stuffing Burr, Archipuzzle is an unusual burr puzzle where the goal is to assemble it instead of taking the burr apart. Furthermore, it has a catch in that it has no obvious goal shape unlike most other burrs. Instead, solvers need to figure out how to assemble the pieces in a way that every notch is filled in with another piece.Lucie was inspired by Volker's Stuffing Burr...

Smuggler's Hold by Jesse Born

When it comes to Jesse's puzzles, Smuggler's Hold is a nice compact one which makes carrying it around easy so I can show it off to friends and family without much worry about it being too big or delicate to share! It looks incredible as if it's an actual smuggling pirate's artifact and is deceptive in how much puzzling it can hide away in such a tiny space!I wouldn't consider it the best of Jesse's work, but that's because he's got so many utterly astonishingly incredible puzzles which overshad...

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...
