DESIGNER: Frans De Vreugd MATERIAL: Ash and Shedua RELEASE DATE: 10.18.2021 EDITION: 40 Copies Released SIZE: 3.4" x 3.4" x 3.4" Frans designed the Japanese Wood Joint Burr in 1999 for the London IPP. Originally crafted in very small quantities by Wayne Daniel, Frans considers it one of his nicest designs. As he still receives requests for the puzzle we decided to make a small batch. I'm glad that we did! This burr is uniquely tricky in both concept and operation. Japanese Wood Joint Burr is precisely crafted from Ash and Shedua. The fit and function are exact. This puzzle turned out very well and is representative of our highest standards for interlocking puzzles. 40 copies are available for this release, each signed and dated, and delivered disassembled (unsolved). Precision wood puzzles can be damaged by environmental changes. Please read the Caring for Wood Puzzles guide to ensure proper fit and operation.
