PUZZLEDDD

 

  After the new shop section and a new logo, I continue the branding improvement with a new domain name: PUZZLEDDD ! You can now access my humble blog directly through puzzleddd.com or www.puzzleddd.com . Short name, easier to remember.  I make puzzles, using 3D printing, hence the (very clever, I know) name !  

I finally added a Shop section to this blog ! I like the idea of maintaining a blog and a shop, with two different purposes, but it is true that it was lacking a proper shop section to facilitate ordering. So here it is ! I hope all works well. Check it out, in the top menu bar. And by the way, I took this opportunity to change the name, and start introducing the new one, PUZZLEDDD, and the new logo!

  I am releasing 2 new puzzles, Espresso and Caffe Latte !  They are both packing & unpacking puzzles, taking advantage of round shapes, which give some nice possibilities of rotation moves.  The goal is to pack all pieces in the cup (8 pieces for Espresso and 7 pieces plus a sugar cube for Caffe Latte), enjoy your drink and unpack ! The disassembling experience is nice as well. They are of moderate difficulty, Espresso being easier (3/6) and Caffe Latte a bit more challenging (4/6). Caffe Latte Espresso A few copies are available for purchasing ( catalog of puzzles ), and more will be produced depending on the demand. 

I just designed a new packing puzzle, Espresso! The goal is to pack all 8 pieces of coffee into the styrofoam cup, and enjoy your coffee ! This puzzle is of medium difficulty, with some nice Ah Ha ! moves. I played with the concept of a round packing puzzle and it opens new possibilities.  It’s an assembly puzzle but don’t forget that you have not really solved a puzzle unless you have solved it twice. The disassembly is enjoyable as well. 

  It took a bit of time but the first batch of packing puzzles is ready for shipping ! I am happy with the result, each puzzle has its own style but they form a nice serie. Skof, designed by Lucie Pauwels Rotabox, designed by Lucie Pauwels PentaStack, designed by Bruno Hemon

  I am going to release soon 3 packing puzzles, 2 that have been designed by Lucie Pauwels and that I have modeled in 3D (thank you Lucie !), and one of my own design. I am quite happy with the result! I was not that familiar with packing puzzles until I recently played with a few and enjoyed the packing experience. Each one of these packing puzzles has its own twist, with similar difficulty, it is a nice set ! Rotabox, designed by Lucie Pauwels Pack all six pieces into the box (2 goals) The solution involves rotation, obviously! Difficulty:4/6 Pentastack, designed by Bruno Pack all six pieces into the box Pentagon shapes can be quite misleading ! Difficulty:5/6 Skof, designed by Lucie Pauwels Pack all seven pieces into the box The inner drawer can move laterally in the box ! Difficulty:5/6 If you are interested, please fill in the waiting list form. It is useful for me to better estimate the quantities and then launch the production.
