Description

I’m reluctantly offering up this amazing 1 of 1 PuzzleBox from Kel to free up funds for other puzzles.

I don’t collect puzzle boxes so this is your chance to acquire one of Kel’s one of a kind creations, comes with full solution instructions with reset featuring accompanying photos.


This wonderful PuzzleBox is the second in a Limited Edition release from Kel using vintage wood yardsticks from days gone by.

In 2017 Kel first offered me the first in this series called ‘Pinch an inch’, of course I jumped at the chance to acquire this entire run of 10 puzzleboxes.

Please see my initial blog about his first release.

Here’s Kel’s description of this 2nd offering:


“Yard Schtick - Design #2/10.  Made from 2 vintage yard sticks.  


There are 3 knobs and 3 buttons and only one way in.  


An interesting concept I worked through was making it so that the two faces are removable, hmmm.


I think it's more of a challenge coming up with the puzzle's name, lol, and now only 8 more designs to go!”


Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Gouge Packing Puzzle - Gaétan Gouge by John Devost
I previously made a few of this surprisingly difficult packing puzzle by Gaétan and at the time I didn’t have any contact info for him but then a few years ago I was surprised by one of his puzzle purchases in ‘Paradise’.My plan was to make another run but life kinda’ took a turn so now I’ve managed to sort myself out and began making another run.Allard kindly blogged about the copies I made in 2014, here’s an excerpt:https://allardspuzzlingtimes.blogspot.com/2014/04/gouge-packing-p...

Tube It In - William Strijbos by John Devost
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...

This classic design was one of my earliest puzzle builds in the early 2000’s that I made for Bill Cutler.It features 18 pieces with four solutions, however finding one will definitely keep you busy for some time!I’ve always wanted to revisit it but in a smaller scale, I used a 3/16” unit size with the overall size being approximately 6” x 4”.The woods used were salvaged from an old upright piano from the 1920’s that I layed out the keys in a wall hanging (see last photo). Slipfeath...
