Seriously tough puzzles
Wooden puzzles are beautiful to look at but can be large and heavy. Puzzles are meant to be played with and shared. These 3D printed puzzles in tough nylon or solid stainless steel are great to play with and easy to carry around in a pocket.  The puzzles range in difficulty from quite easy to fiendishly difficult and, unless stated, are all my own design. Puzzles work best in White, Strong and Flexible material.
If you would prefer coloured puzzles then you have three choices:
- Order in one of Shapeways standard seasonal colours
- Order white ones and dye them yourself
- Order directly from me through my Etsy shop.

Please note that Shapeways only print the pieces. You will need to work out how to fit the puzzle together. YouTube videos are available for many puzzles to help you with this.
