Description

This 5 piece cube design by Stewart came about shortly after his ‘Pillars of Hercules’ design, and it would ultimately lead to his infamous ‘Computer Killer’ puzzle.

I decided to make this one without the ‘trick’ as it’s a difficult enough solve as is.

Pieces are Jatoba with a Box and Lid made from Leopardwood with Maple Slipfeathers. There’s also two sleeves, one is Yellowheart and the other is Holly.

Everything is ‘triple buffed’ to a nice sheen.

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

The entire puzzle has been ‘triple buffed’ giving it a very nice sheen.Overall size is a little over 4...
