Description

Offered here is "One In A Trillion," a versatile and highly challenging mechanical puzzle designed and presented by Steve Nicholls for the IPP 31 Exchange in Berlin (2011). This is a "dual-threat" puzzle that offers two distinct challenges in one beautiful wooden set.

​The Challenges:

​The Tray Puzzle: Fit all 9 pieces into the wooden tray. While there are technically 7 known solutions for the tray, finding even one is famously difficult.

​The Cube Challenge: Use 8 of the 9 pieces to construct a solid 4x4x4 cube. This 3D objective is notoriously tough and has only one unique solution.

​Product Details:

​Presenter: Steve Nicholls

​Origin: IPP 31 (Berlin, 2011)

​Difficulty: High (Multi-level challenge)

​Condition: Excellent, complete with all 9 pieces and original tray.

​Note: This is a genuine IPP exchange gift, meaning it was never mass-produced for retail and was only available to attendees of the 2011 event.

Shipping determined at close of auction.
