Up for auction is a pristine example of the R2D2 mechanical puzzle, designed and meticulously crafted by the renowned German designer Roger Dieckmann. Known for his high-end aluminum "pocket-sized" challenges, Dieckmann's work is a staple in any serious mechanical puzzle collection.
Don’t let the minimalist aesthetic fool you. Milled from a solid block of high-grade, sandblasted aluminum and protected by a clear acrylic face, the "R2D2" (stylishly engraved on the side) is a masterpiece of precision engineering. The puzzle features two large internal steel spheres and one small "runner" ball, all secured by stainless steel hex bolts.
At first glance, it appears to be a simple dexterity maze. However, collectors know that Roger D puzzles often hide a clever physical "trick." The larger spheres act as gatekeepers, requiring more than just a steady hand to navigate the smaller ball from start to finish. It is a satisfying solve that rewards logic over luck.
This piece is currently out of stock at most major retailers and is increasingly difficult to find on the secondary market. It is a must-have for fans of metal puzzles or those who collect the "Roger D" series.
Shipping: Will be packed with extreme care (bubble-wrapped and boxed) to ensure the acrylic remains scratch-free during transit.
Shipping paid buy buyer and determined at close of auction. I will do my best to find the cheapest shipping options.
