visibly tight but movement is very smooth. Kawashima does amazing
work.

Juno - Reza 4-4 (2017)
one of Juno's many Platonic Solid burr constructions, and one of the simpler ones at that. i can only imagine
the jigwork that goes into cutting these pieces, although it wouldn't surprise me to learn that Juno just eyeballs all these angled cuts and uses an X-Acto handsaw, because he's just that good.

Stickman #13 - Chopstick Box (~2012)
i suppose this is technically the third edition of this puzzle, made
about five years after the originals, but according to Rob:
Originally
the first and second editions were only a few months apart back in
2007. These days, since they were made in the same year and so
long ago, I kind of lump them together into the same edition
run.
The one in the picture is from the next
generation, around 5 years later. It is what I would say is
from a 2nd edition run, because I l...
