About the designer:
At the beginning of 2016, Brady Whitney began to develop a wooden puzzle book for his Senior Thesis Research Project at Iowa State University. After successfully grabbing an A+ for his work, Brady decided to post a few pictures to see what others thought of this new creation. It went viral!! It was decided then and there that a Kickstarter Campaign had to be put together. An extremely successful launch was completed in August of that same year.
