IPP Exchange

"The Octo Burr is #110 in Stewart Coffin's numbering system. He made 130 copies as exchange puzzles for IPP-17, and the puzzle has been unavailable since then. Mr Coffin assisted Mark in making the Octo Burr by sharing with him the angles necessary for the sawing jig. The eight sticks are actually made up into 5 pieces. There at least two solutions to this puzzle. It is rated moderate in difficulty." -Eric Fuller
