Barcode Burr Master Set
When I first started selling variations on my original Barcode Burr puzzle, I came up with this "Master Set" which included a few new ideas of mine, as well as some of Derek Bosch:



At the time, these were the only variations that I had come up with. These sets came with two sets of body pieces preinstalled with black and blue insert pieces (Barcode Burr and CoordiCode Burr) and preassembled so that you get a chance to do these ones as disassembly puzzles rather than assembly puzzles.

I also sold an "upgrade kit" that omitted the preassembled Barcode Burr if you'd already purchased of those from me.

In the first few versions of this master set that I shipped out, I included an extra "copper" colored body piece so that you could opt to have piece #1 look different than the rest in order to make solving easier. Eventually I stopped doing this in favor of offering rainbow body piece kits as separate items to purchase.

After selling a few dozen Master Sets like this, I came up with several new coordinate motion designs such as:



In keeping with tradition, and new copies of the "Barcode Burr Master Set" that I sell will come with everything needed to try all of the puzzles, but minimal duplication of shared pieces so that you can save money and recycle shared parts between variations.
