Designed by Wil Strijbos.The object of the puzzle is to open the cylinder. As you'd expect with a Wil Strijbos puzzle, this is a challenge.

Benjamin Franklin’s Lost Inventor’s CaseAn Artifact Not Meant to Be FoundThere are whispers of a case—one never recorded, never cataloged… yet somehow recovered.A singular object. The only one known to exist.Believed to have passed through the hands of Benjamin Franklin himself, this enigmatic construct defies simple explanation. It is not merely a puzzle—it is a sequence of discoveries, a chain of concealed intentions, a mind speaking across centuries.Very rare and unusual tools.Nothi...

designed by Dic Sonneveld in the late 90's and made by Tom Lensch, though i don't know what year he made it.the cage is made from blue mahoe, avodire, and primavera, with burr pieces made from granadillo (a.k.a Mexican rosewood). this is the complete description from puzzleworld.org: A three-piece burr is contained within the cube. It is very difficult to disassemble and assemble, requiring rotations and other unnatural acts in addition to the usual burr movements. ...

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...

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. buyer pays shipping. shipment will be by USPS Priority Mail, insured for the full sale price. payment via PayPal only. ♫:  all puzzles in my col...

like all of Juno's boxes, this is still fun and challenging to solve even after a dozen times. any further comment would be a spoiler. buyer pays shipping. shipment will be by USPS Priority Mail, insured for the full sale price. payment via PayPal only. ♫:  all puzzles in my collection have been kept out of sunlight, in a humidity-stable room, away from pets unless they can solve them, and in a non-smoking household. thank you fo...

this is the original 'iron' version, with the 3D-printed metal and other metal parts chemically aged with salt, vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, and i'd like to think a 150-year-old fifth of rotgut whisky as well, all applied and slowly simmered in a closed sun-heated container to lend the finished work that authentic 'old, rusted, and possibly containing a skeleton' aesthetic. certain items inside are also appropriately 'aged' with the enlisted help of Jesse's sister Christina and a pot of bl...

every side of this is its own secret compartment. when completely solved and everything is open, personally i think it looks like a flower.  or a multiaxial windmill. tolerances are visibly tight but movement is very smooth.  Kawashima does amazing work. buyer pays shipping. shipment will be by USPS Priority Mail, insured for the full sale price. payment via PayPal only. ♫:  all puzzles in my collection have been kept out of sunligh...
