Strimko #4, site news

Here’s the 4th Strimko set created for smartkit by the Grabarchuk’s.

And Congratulations to Peter Grabarchuk- Sterling recently published his book: Modern Classic Puzzles. Had a chance to do some of the puzzles, and they’re really good! The book starts off with easy ones, but they gradually progress in difficulty to very hard.

Finally, a new (hopefully improved!) smartkit website design is coming soon…

The Defective Ball

You can use the balance only 4 times. How would you find out which is the defective ball? Is it heavier or lighter?
