Description

This is another of Jakub’s ‘Kumiki’ style puzzles featuring ‘animal’ shapes. Your goal is to take it apart into its many pieces and then reassemble it, it’s not as easy as it sounds!

I made a Box and Lid from Peruvian Walnut with Holly Slipfeathers and Roasted Ash Sleeve.

Gouge Packing Puzzle - Gaétan Gouge by John Devost

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...
