CASTLE - Christoph Lohe by Pelikan

This is a very cool design, well made by the Pelikan workshop from American Walnut and Cherry!

Kevin Sadler wrote about it:

“This puzzle is absolutely stunning made from American Walnut and Cherry – it even has turrets and small windows in the walls. There are 4 burr sticks to be removed from the Walnut frame. It is a classic design by Christoph Lohe who over the years has designed many many burrs with absolutely fascinating shapes and a wonderful move sequence that you discover by careful exploration and deduction. Each movement reveals one or more options for further travel and some very nice clever moves that give a great Aha! feeling when found. The sequence is actually very logical and not too difficult – this would actually be suitable as a caged burr for beginners. Having removed the pieces then it is perfectly possible to scramble them, leave it for a while to try and forget the sequence and then try to work out the reassembly from scratch. That part took me quite a while but even a numbskull like me could eventually manage it.”
