I decided I should make myself a copy of this cool design. I’ve only ever seen pics of Tom Lensch’s 4-colour version. I thought I’d make my copy with both the 3-colour and 4-colour variant along with a 2x3x4 Box and a 4x6 Tray.
Here’s Stewart’s description:
“Five multi-colored solid polyominoes come assembled in a 4x6 tray, and the problem is to rearrange them so that no two like colors are next to each other, and also with color symmetry. A second 4x6 arrangement exists and also a unique 3x8 arrangement, but neither satisfies the requirements of symmetry.
The solution is to pack them in the unique 2x3x4 solid arrangement. There are two different versions of this puzzle: three-color and four-color.”
Box and Sleeve is Leopardwood with Black Limba Top & Bottom and Wenge Slipfeathers.
Piece wood variety for the 4-colour version are Purpleheart, Yellowheart, Redheart and Black Palm.
Tray is Padauk with Holly Slipfeathers and a Black Limba Sleeve (removable) and Bottom.
Piece wood variety for the 3-colour version are Yellowheart, Bloodwood and Black Palm.
