Carl's Puzzles

Designs by wwwmwww
Welcome to the Shapeways shop of Dr. Carl Hoff. I started publishing twisty puzzle designs back in January 2007 on TwistyPuzzles.com. Up until 2011, all my designs were made in POV-Ray which doesn't allow saving in a format suitable for 3D printing. However after seeing other designers offering designs for sale here at Shapeways, I'm now learning some new 3D modeling software which will allow my designs to be printed.

This is the Bubbloid122 puzzle.

This puzzle uses eight M3-0.50 screws however it will actually hold itself together without them. The screws I've used are 18mm long but anything 10mm to 18mm long should work just fine. You may purchase stickers for this puzzle here.

This is the Mercury Uniaxial 3x3x3. It is a super set of the Mercury Crazy 3x3 Plus Cube. This is an extension of a puzzle concept I came up with on January 31, 2011 for the Deep Uniaxial 3x3x3. Tom van der Zanden designed the mechanism for the Deep Uniaxial 3x3x3 and I've made a slight modification to his design (changing only 2 pieces) to turn it into this puzzle. This should still be considered a Tom van der Zanden design.

This puzzle requires five 16mm 3M Slotted Cheese Head screws to assemble. I have purchased mine here on amazon.com. No other hardware is needed. You may purchase stickers for this puzzle here. Note this is the same sticker set used on the Deep Uniaxial 3x3x3.

Shop Details

The models available for purchase in my shop include all the 3D printed parts needed to build your own puzzle. They do not include any additional hardware (screws, washers, springs, etc.) or stickers. In each puzzle's description, I will detail what additional material is needed and where it may be obtained. For example, I'm trying to make all the stickers for my puzzles available at Olivér's Stickers.

White Strong & Fexible is set as the default material for all my puzzles. If you want a puzzle with a colored body you can select from Black, Red, or Purple Stong & Flexibe here at Shapeways or you can order the White Strong & Fexible version and dye the puzzle yourself. I use powder RIT's fabric dye which has even more color options and for most should be easily available at your local department or hobby store.

Please contact me by clicking 'Send Message' above if you are interested in purchasing an already assembled, stickered, and broken in puzzle or if you have any questions about how to turn your Shapeways kit into a finished puzzle. I'll be happy to help.

Thanks for visiting my shop.
