The 8 Rods puzzle designed by Rocky Chiaro

The puzzle was a souvenir given to puzzlers at the IPP26 Welcome Reception in Boston. The puzzle was designed by Rocky Chiaro and made by Bits And Pieces. 

Goal: To fully remove all eight "wand" rods from the block and then figure out the precise combination to insert them back in evenly.
The puzzle is made from Brass and is in it’s original box with sticker on front.  The puzzle is engraved with the IPP26 logo.
Size: Each rod is 60mm long.
Condition: As given. Never played with. But the brass has a patina; either age or rattling around in the box.

Import duties/tariffs are not included in the final price.The import duty or tariff rate may be different for every country so please check the rate that applies to your own country. It is usual practice that import duties or tariffs are paid by the buyer at the point of import or delivery in your own country.USA is the exception. The USA government has mandated that the tariff be paid to them from Australia before we can send the parcel. The tariff percentage for puzzles made in Taiwan is currently set at 10% + Customs clearance fee.
