Description

  


This design is my favourite Coffin Cube design.  I have made so many of these puzzles starting early in 2000.  I was always tinkering with scale, wood type, shape, Color scheme, etc..

More recently I had some 1/2” cubes from BAZ so thought I’d make more and also revisited a two-piece stand design I came up with in 2008.

Here’s what Stewart wrote:

“Now more than sixty years after fashioning the Mikusiński Cube from wood scraps, dissections of 

 the  3x3x3 cube continue to fascinate me, but especially those that interlock. Better still, with all dissimilar non-symmetrical pieces. Is such a five-piece version possible? I doubt it, after having searched for years. I have designed several that come close, but most use a piece or two that is symmetrical, such as a single block key. A four-piece version that satisfies all of these requirements can also be entertaining. Here is one.”

Puzzle and stand is lacquered and hand buffed.

Woods used are:

Makore & Marblewood pieces with a Roasted Oak Stand.

Grooved 6 Board Burr #7 by Juno
I’m offering up this extremely difficult board burr by Juno and as is the case with most of his designs disassembly is only half the battle, reassembly is where the futility begins!Here’s Yukari’s description from Pluredro:“The puzzle has a unique solution in a relatively small number of 91 assemblies, and the computer program Burr Tools showed its level to be 50-18-3-3, the highest number in the Grooved 6 Board Burr series. In the real world, the interlocking of the consisting pieces be...
