Description


It seems hard to believe that it's been almost 20 years since I first made a small run of this clever packing puzzle design in 2006.  William has graciously allowed me to offer up another run as there were only a dozen copies made in 2006.

The original metal version was William’s exchange puzzle at the IPP21 in Tokyo.


This version is made using many wood varieties and includes a Stand.  


The entire puzzle has been ‘triple buffed’ giving it a very nice sheen.


Overall size is a little over 4”x 3”x3”


Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction, please note that UPS will be used unless our postal system returns to work.

My One and Only - Stewart Coffin by John Devost
This awesome design by Stewart is one of my favourite, it appears so simple but is fiendishly difficult to solve.Here’s an excerpt from Stewart:“The problem here was to find a combination using the five non-symmetrical pentominoes (made of five joined squares) plus one other pentomino that fit into a rectangular tray one way only. After a long search, this goal was finally achieved.”Comes with a signed and dated sheet.Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Five Woods - Stewart Coffin by John Devost
I made several copies of this very tricky design by Stewart and thought I’d make a few more.This copy is made from wood that I salvaged from an antique upright piano with Padauk Slipfeathers.Everything has been ‘triple buffed’.Here’s an excerpt from Stewart:“In case you haven't already discovered, polyominoes is the name given to puzzle pieces made of squares joined different ways. A popular recreation is to fit them snugly into a square or rectangular tray. The long-time popularity of...
