Back by popular demand, 4L is one of our favorite designs. This diabolical packing puzzle seems simple, yet the solution is anything but - 4L is FAR trickier than it looks. The goal is to pack the four L-shaped pieces into a very simple box. There are two different types of L pieces (fat and thin) and several possible configurations. The solution is creative and devious and earned Mr. Hashimoto an honorable mention at IPP 2015, 95 copies, each signed and dated, were made for this release. This puzzle is shipped disassembled. Puzzle Mad wrote an excellent blog review of this packing puzzle. Our work is handcrafted to very precise tolerances and must be kept within the range of 40-60% relative humidity at all times. Failure to do so may cause inoperability or permanent damage. |
