Twelve Straight/Twisted by Yukio Hirose (Cubic Dissection)

Twelve Straight/Twisted by Yukio Hirose crafted by Eric Fuller

Review:

This is a Paduak version of Yukio Hirose interlocking puzzle. As you can see, it is perfectly crafted by Eric at Cubic Dissection with the actual joints melting into each other perfectly.

The ends of the puzzles are made by of either double "H", double "T" or double "I" shaped pieces. These are either straight with each the opposite end or rotated 90 degrees. So with 2 ends that gives all 12 combinations of pieces (3 x 2 x 2) near king all pieces are unique!

Not having symmetry or an obvious start point to help the solve is rather tricky, but a couple of "oh, yeah," moments makes the solve possible in a sensible amount of time.

Nicely priced for the complexity of the  build and a beautiful display place. Probably better for the experienced puzzler than those new to puzzling.

Can be sent assembled or disassembled- your choice!
