## House Party (STC #250) ### A tray-packing puzzle by Stewart Coffin Fit all four pieces into each of the two house-shaped openings. They appear similar, but the solutions are distinct and challenging to figure out. One of the openings seems significantly larger than the other, but it's actually just slightly narrower, making it unclear how to approach it. This puzzle is part of a series of tray-packing puzzles and serves as a sequel to Housing Project, which was more accessible. However, House Party was initially presented at the International Puzzle Party 30 in Japan in 2010 due to its increased difficulty level. If you're new to Coffin's tray-packing puzzles, it's recommended to start with one of the others before tackling this one. There are three STL files: the pieces; the tray; and an optional lid. It was designed using puzzlecad, and I've included the .scad file for remixing purposes. You'll need puzzlecad version 1.3 or later to open it. ### About the Designer Stewart Coffin is a renowned designer of interlocking mechanical puzzles.
