Comes from a smoke free home.This final installation of the Havana's box is the "Bruce" after my buddy who tends bar there from time to time. He's a smooth talker with a complex personality, and that describes this box pretty well.

The goal is of course to set the cigar free. ...

Description:Designed by Frederic Boucher and made by Eric Fuller 9 years ago.Description from Eric's website: It's really a great puzzle; even if you don't necessarily like packing puzzles you should give it a try. There are three solutions for packing all the wood pieces plus the metal dowl in.
