IPP39 Kanazawa exchange puzzles
7 August 2019At Mr Puzzle we made two puzzles designed by George Sicherman for this year’s IPP39 held in Kanazawa, Japan. The Edward Hordern puzzle exchange event is…
The puzzle is to assemble the four pieces into a square. Then using all four pieces try to make the other 12 shapes on the enclosed sheet which increases the difficulty rating to 3.
The concept of dissecting a square into a number of pieces to make a puzzle may at first appear to be a simple one but none-the-less it must be a good one because as early as 1749 the French toy catalogue Les Amusemens was publishing them. Each piece is identical and has two right angles just to confuse!
Size 155mm x 70mm x 20mm (each piece 75mm x 70mm x 10mm) Included is this sheet with 12 shapes to make with the Just Have Patience pieces.
