I’ve never seen a burr puzzle quite like this one, it has an outward appearance of a traditional 18 piece burr, however once you look closer there are 8 smaller burr pieces tucked inside!

Here’s a brief description from Alfons:

“26 pieces for the puzzle ‘Alien’

Level: 10.8.9.9.9.2.7.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.3.2.1.

All the shorter pieces are inside the puzzle.”

Shipping cost will need 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.

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.
