Description

I’ve been wanting to make this design for years and now after decades making puzzles finally made a copy using some of my Salvaged Piano Wood.

One of the first puzzles that I purchased from Interlocking Puzzles (Wayne Daniel - RIP) in early 2000 was this familiar 12 Piece Pentomino design. I made a box to contain the 3x4x5 (3940 solutions) and the 2x5x6 (264 solutions) configuration.

Everything has my ‘Triple Buff Finish’ and comes with printed solutions sheet.

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Christmas 2001 - Stewart Coffin #182 by John Devost

I originally made a small amount of this wonderful design in 2006 (sold at CubicDissection) and thought I might make a few more copies.This particular copy is crafted from Maple from an antique upright piano with Padauk slipfeathers.Stewart makes note of this particular version:“The Original Christmas has two design flaws - a piece duplicated and a symmetrical piece. Both flaws have been corrected in this 2018 version. Both versions have only one solution.”Entire puzzle has been ‘tri...

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...
