Description

No, this is NOT a tall drink coaster... use it to hold your bourbon at your own risk. This is Sticky Stack of Sticks... a slide together puzzle that fits so tightly it took me about 10 minutes to find a way to release the fist pieces. This puzzle has been in storage since 2003-ish... So, I wanted to make sure the pieces still moved and were not locked or broken. Thus I made sure the pieces could be taken apart. 

This is a devious puzzle... trust me... pieces can slide together and make you think you are on the right path... noooop... All that being said... these (I have multiples.) Have been on my shelves for almost a year until I finally found out they ARE Bill Darrah puzzles... when I first got them, I did think they might be fancy coaster. Lol.

Six dissimilar pieces, all glued from three planks in different directions, should be interlocked into a 5-layered square pack. Some unusual interlocking moves are necessary to find the solution. With original instructions and solution sheet.
IPP-23 exchange puzzle from Bill Darrah.

Shipping determined at close of auction.
