Description

I have decided to offer up this puzzle in an effort to further thin out my personal collection.

This was Henry Strout's IPP 41 Exchange puzzle in Houston, Texas.

This packing puzzle has a ‘Train’ theme with the goal of packing six pieces into the box, however they all won’t fit in the box, with an opening at one end you literally have to ‘think outside the box’.

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Tube It In 2 - William Hu by John Devost

I’m sure everyone is quite familiar with William Strijbos’ original Tube It In design so I don’t think I need to give a lengthy description but should say that William Hu came up with a novel design twist on this awesome puzzle and he has graciously allowed me to make a small run.I’ve long since left the puzzle scene after completely retiring, however I did finish up a select few of these and thought I’d offer them up for sale.This puzzle is crafted from Padauk with Yellowheart Slipfea...
