Description

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 and decided to up the ante by giving us solvers 5 pieces with 10 notches over Volker's 4 pieces with 8 notches. And as an added insult, none of her pieces are identical in shape unlike Volker's design!

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.

LOL by Frederic Boucher

Frederic Boucher has a long history of coming up with wild puzzles, but he doesn't like to craft more than a handful of copies before moving on to the next design. Which is why I'm so appreciative of Pelikan for stepping in to make more copies of LOL for everyone to try!LOL is a packing puzzle where the solver needs to fit all of the pieces into a 4x5 space with only a 1x2 opening to fit the pieces inside. It's obvious that rotations will be required since there are pieces that wouldn't otherwis...

Minima Smiley by Frederic Boucher

Frederic Boucher has been crafting Minima after Minima design where he works to design a packing puzzle within a 2 by 2 by 3 box where either the solver has to fit in a set of pieces, or figure out how to take them out. He used to number them, but after reaching #14 which developed into a full blown sequential discovery puzzle (Jammed Gem), they've spiraled out into other names and really stretching the original packing concept of a Minima. At this point, the total number of Minima designs is ...

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

Rattler's Tail by Jesse Born

Selling Rattler's Tail to raise funds for a new puzzle!Rattler's Tail is a tricky puzzle that left me stumped after each step, but I had a lot of fun solving it! It does a good job of living up to it's theme of the Wild West considering it's based around the rattler snake which is iconic to the setting.In either case, this is a puzzle in excellent shape, only been solved twice ever, and comes with the original certificate and shipping box it first came to me directly from Jesse! The starting auc...
