Three Card Burr

George Miller

This is a puzzle of my own invention and consists of three ordinary playing cards that have been cut in a certain way allowing them to be interlocked along three axes. Your puzzle will come with an acrylic stand to display the burr once you have figured out how to put the three cards together. There are actually two ways to put the three cards together, but, only one way will allow the cards to fit into the stand properly.

The cards can be bent, but not torn or creased so that the finished assembly shows no cuts and looks quite impossible. The puzzle cannot be taken apart without tearing the cards, so it is a one time puzzle.

Puzzle Palace is closed for good. I have enjoyed selling puzzles for the last eight years and have made enough money to pay for all of my equipment. This website will remain open so that those of you who have bought my puzzles can continue to view the solutions. I shall still sell selected puzzles at the annual International Puzzle Party, but none on the website.. Again, thank all of you for taking such an interest in my puzzles. George Miller
