Around the Bend - Frans de Vreugd by Brian Young
This awesome puzzle was Presented by Frans de Vreugd in Helsinki, Finland, at the IPP exchange in 2005
Here's Brian's description:
"The object of the puzzle is assemble the six plated end pieces (shaped like "L") into the six piece burr.
When working on another project Frans noticed that the principle of adding a ‘plate’ to the end of the pieces was an interesting variation on the standard six piece burr. As a result he created this puzzle which is the highest level burr of this type with notchable pieces. Will the piece around the end drive you around the bend?
Puzzle pieces made from Queensland Silver Ash with Queensland Blackbean ends"

Dubois Burr by Brian Young
Beautifully Crafted from Queensland Blackbean by Brian in 2006, this puzzle was originally discovered by Phillipe Dubois (Israel) back in 1985.
It takes 6 moves to remove the first piece and then another 4 for the second so not a trivial puzzle by any means!
