Description

Joe Turner is famous for his coin release puzzles which he first only made for family and friends, but then his works circulated in the puzzling community and he was encouraged to develop his creativity and make more designs for paying strangers.

At this point, he's made 9 different coin release puzzles, and this one may be his best of the lot. It dramatically stands out by being a large puzzle box that solvers have to open with tools they find while poking at the box. It's much larger and more complex compared to his other coin releases which are far smaller and more compact. 1-7 and 9 may fit nicely into a pocket, but not this one! It also looks amazing with some gorgeous chatoyance as the wood shimmers and shines on the top of it. I was foolishly worried when I first got this puzzle thinking it was a sign of damage. I had never known that wood could ripple like a gem before!

I've had a lot of fun admiring this box and working my way through the wild mechanisms and enjoying his artwork. But it's been with me for a good 5 years now and it's time to let it go. I'm still fond of it as one of my first major SD puzzles from when I was first entering the hobby. But it's time for newer puzzles instead of letting this one gather dust in my storage space.

I've kept it in a sealed bag with a boveda pack for years to keep it at perfect humidity, so rest assured that it's in perfect condition. Unfortunately, I bought this second-hand and never got the solution booklet with it. So that part is missing sorry. There are solution videos for it online if you're truly stuck and need help.

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 buyers.

I am willing to consider other desired 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.

Payment Methods: Wise, Other payment method (see description)

T14 Popplock by Rainer Popplock

Where do I begin with this beast of a puzzle? It's one of the most sought after puzzle lock with multiple fanatical fans wanting to collect every single lock made by Rainer. He definitely knows how to make locks that would stump any thief looking to loot one's puzzle collection! It'll stump their minds and is made so sturdily that it'd stump their aching hands and demand power tools to break through!It's not an easy puzzle at all and I struggled for a long time working on it, but it was such an ...

Vertigo by Dee Dixon

Vertigo definitely lives up to its name considering how easy it is to go around and around in circles with this puzzle!It's a good thing that it's so pretty and nice to look at considering how long I spent just staring at it like an idiot lost on the next step to do! I liked it more than most of Dee's other works. It has some very nice steps that I was impressed by and liked to repeat just for the tactile pleasure of executing these steps.Grab this bad boy to enjoy as the first puzzle of 2026!I ...

L3NS SD Camera Build by EmGi/Kris Antibus

L3NS is a themed puzzle where you need to operate it as if it's a real camera to open the shutter and take a picture before then resetting it. I had a fun time tricking a few people into thinking it's a real 3d-printed camera that could develop the film on the spot. Of course that was a lie, but the craftsmanship of the print made for a very convincing camera! The puzzling was fantastic even if I breezed through the solve for the most part with only one spot that stumped me for long.It's inspire...

Archipuzzle by Lucie Pauwels

Archipuzzle is actually a sequel of sorts to Stuffing Burr despite both puzzles being designed by different people.Just like Stuffing Burr, Archipuzzle is an unusual burr puzzle where the goal is to assemble it instead of taking the burr apart. Furthermore, it has a catch in that it has no obvious goal shape unlike most other burrs. Instead, solvers need to figure out how to assemble the pieces in a way that every notch is filled in with another piece.Lucie was inspired by Volker's Stuffing Burr...
