is a tiny company located in Bodega Bay, California, that hand makes traditional, as well as our own designs of wire entanglements, generally from stainless steel or brass wire. Marichu Hernandez and Paul Wood make all puzzles on the premises. We know of no other hand crafters of wire puzzles who braze their goods achieving the same strength for the lightness of weight. We tumble clean and polish our puzzles for a minimum of five hours to give them a bright finish. We have sold wholesale and retail since 1989, but currently, the vast majority of our work is at craft shows and with mail and internet orders. Our puzzles are packaged with clues, sealed instructions and indications of difficulty level (basic through very difficult) for each of the 20 models that we currently make.

   Just about all bending is done by hand...(Mostly, Marichu's hand!)

                            

Paul is our fire-man.

Fiddl' Widdit's 'Godfather' Tom Burke makes frequent cameo appearances at puzzle central to supervise. He provides a whole lot more than just simple moral support. He's even responsible for the original fascination with wire puzzles.
Meet our 'Journeyman' puzzle master, Jordan Davidson. If it weren't for him, we'd probably still be fruitlessly fiddlin' with one of our newer models, an 800+ year old classic, which we couldn't resist calling Jordan's Journey. After our spending 2 years with no success (but having lots of fun) with a prototype, Jordan figured it out for us in about a week, after he'd quickly worked his way through our entire line. The kid is GOOD! (Oh, did we say that he was 12 years old when all of this happened?) Now, having "mastered" the puzzle of driving, he has decided to "invest" his 800 SAT math score with Stanford! (Does our pride in him show?)
