Two recent arrivals:

Mercedes-Benz Tangram by Puzzleparadox, on Flickr

Considering the price I paid for the tangram set it is actually of superb quality. It's made up of around 1cm thick pieces of acrylic! There should be a few more on eBay for anyone interested. ;)

Also check out my blog for a review of the best bottle puzzle I have ever come across from the brilliant Mr. Strijbos.

In response to Oli's (completely justified) enthusiastic post about the Mercedes Benz tangram set and its availability on that great auction website, I must advise MPP3 attendees not to buy it !-)

If you read my forum via your mobile take a look at the basic mobile version of my blog:

Oli's Mechanical Puzzle Blog - Mobile Version

I haven't enabled it yet as I want to see what you guys prefer. There's no doubt that it is more user friendly than the full page, but would you rather have this or the original?

Oskar's Blocks is from Puzzle Master.

Four Fit is made by Tom Lensch and came directly from him. :)

There's a Fourfit on the current Cubic auction over here [ http://www.cubicdissection.com/market/a ... _id=103052 ] if you're interested Karl - this version has 4 different woods for the pieces... and is being sold by one of our own...he said, noticing who happened to be reading this page at the same time!
