What is the definition of pulsar?
A rapidly spinning neutron star that emits a bright beam of radiation from its magnetic poles. The name derives from the fact that the star appears to pulsate every time the beam sweeps past us. Pulsar is short for ‘pulsating star’.
And that’s what we thought the burr looked like when assembled!
The puzzle consists of 4 pieces of 10mm acrylic and a single wooden piece from Western Australian Jarrah. One of the acrylic pieces is quite unique to any other burr we’ve ever made. Junichi designed it with a sweeping curve cut out of the piece.
Size: 60mm x 40mm x 80mm. Wooden piece is 80mm long.
Packaged disassembled. This is a very doable puzzle from someone who’s had a little experience assembling burrs. But it is designed by Junichi so it’s not a pushover that’s for sure!

Unusual mini burr puzzle
This isn’t a super complex puzzle, and it’s pretty obvious how the pieces are supposed to fit together, but it’s not at all straightforward to figure out how to get them there. When you finally have the burr done it comes together with an unusual and satisfying movement.
Recommended as an unusual or simpler burr.
