Description

Selling two very special TIC designs!

HecTIC and EcTIC are very rare unusual TIC designs where the component voxels aren't all connected by their sides. Some of them are linked by their edges or more daringly by their corners! It makes for some very complex movements. I warn any bidders to be careful playing with this puzzle. The pieces are more delicate with the weaker connections. I know several unhappy buyers who weren't careful and snapped a part or two.

EcTIC is the easier tic of the two with only 3 parts and they're closer to the traditional tic shapes. But HecTIC is much harder with 4 parts instead of 3 and the parts have more edge-to-edge and corner-to-corner connections, making the solve harder.

It's up to the buyer if they wish for the tics to be sent assembled or disassembled. I will ask before shipment is done.

I accept and prefer using Zelle as my payment method of choice.

I accept Paypal. I prefer Friends & Family due to the IRS tax rules. But if you rather pay with Goods & Services, I will accommodate that preference.

I accept Wise for international (and domestic) buyers.

I am willing to consider other payment methods.

Shipping is USPS or UPS

Buyer chooses the shipping service and shipping speed, First Class or Priority (assuming the package is under the weight limit for First Class).
Insurance is optional, but buyer has to cover it if it is desired.
I ask the winner to hold off on paying until after I calculate and message final shipping costs to be added to the final bid.

Quad Slideways by Raymond Stanton

So once upon a time, Cubic Dissection came out with a lovely puzzle called Slideways that people just went nuts over. It was a 3-piece burr that assembled unlike any burr puzzle before it with coordinate motion moves! It was such an excellent introductory puzzle to the genre of coordinate motion puzzles, also co-mo puzzles for faster speech and slang. It had it all! It was small, easily shared around to even non-puzzlers and simple enough to convey the sheer magic of the deceptively simple and y...

Minima Dove by Andee Tao

Minima Dove is an interesting Minima puzzle because it's one of the few Minima puzzles not actually designed by Frederic Boucher himself despite his seeming monopoly on the concept with the way he pumps out minima after minima nonstop!For those who don't know, Minimas are what some puzzlers refer to puzzles that deal with a 2x2x3 box which is an awfully tiny constrained space to design a puzzle in. Hence the name coined for it by Boucher who originated the concept. Minima is about making the mos...
