Description

The puzzle is to get the T-bar through the cylinder to enable the corkscrew to turn and open your wine.

This is the plain white box used by the manufacturer of the puzzle – Bits and Pieces – with the original paper explaining the puzzle inside.  You can see from the photo the box has been opened and closed a bit. But the puzzle doesn't appear to have been played with. 

There is also a sticker we put on the box with some advice for buyers to avoid spoilers when we sold it on the Mr Puzzle website back in 2006.  

The puzzle was designed by Gary Foshee (sadly passed away July 2025)  The puzzle is made of brushed aluminium.  
Size – corkscrew is 113mm tall.

All prices in Australian Dollars (not US Dollars).  We much prefer payment via Wise because the charges are far less. But we can accept PayPal.

The puzzle will be shipped from Australia by Australia Post.

If we have other items listed and you buy more than one we’re happy to combine ship and quote postage based on weight.

Cost to ship this puzzle Standard:

Australia 10.00

NZ 21.00

US/Canada/EU/Asia  25.00

UK/Scandinavia 36.00

Other countries please request a quote.
