Has anyone ever folded Robert Lang's Burr puzzle ? http://www.langorigami.com/art/gallery/ ... urr_puzzle

Is it the same as David Mitchell's 6-part Stellated Rhombic Dodecahedron, except that Mitchell's model uses silver rectangles and Lang's version uses squares? http://www.mizushobai.freeserve.co.uk/s ... ahedra.htm

Nope, look up Burr Puzzle. Though I guess techinically, you wind up with the same shape.

Has anyone ever folded this model?
I would like to see some pictures of the pieces.

There are dozens of types of burr puzzles. I asked that because I folded Mitchell's model and it looks the same as Lang's picture from his website. Maybe one type of burr puzzle just happens to be the same as Mitchell's.

Well, I do have this burr puzzle... Made out of wood, not folded. I will try to find it and take pictures

Here come the Pictures:

I could be wrong, It might be different, but it should be pretty close

Thanks, Cupcake!

I use to have a set of Burr Puzzle, but it was made of plastic. Unfortunately I lost it

Are all 6 pieces equal to each other?

There are different variants of this puzzle. The most common one has all 6 pieces exactly the same.

Yes, my puzzle has all the same
