Burrglar - Peter Hajek & William Strijbos by Pelikan



This is a very clever puzzle that I really enjoyed, I’m often struck by puzzles with only three pieces that are so much fun, it reminds me of Stewart Coffin’s ‘Three Piece Block’ puzzle that has stumped many puzzlers! 


I originally missed Pelikan’s drop of this cool puzzle but thankfully they released a few more and quickly snatched up my copy, special thanks go out to Pelikan.


Here’s Pelikan’s description:


“Peter Hajek’s exchange puzzle at IPP40. This is a 3-piece burr with simple notches. You are even shown its solved state shape. So far so simple. The problem is that this thing was designed by Peter Hajek and Wil Strijbos.”






I decided to make a box to house the pieces disassembled so the ‘Tom foolery’ can be continued once you open the box, lol.

Box is Walnut/Ash/Canarywood with an Ash Sleeve.  Top and Bottom are Ambrosia Maple with Roasted Ash Slipfeathers.
