Mikes first meeting with the puzzle world was in 1981when Rubik cube came on the market. When the fashion was gone he was still playing with it. Over the years there were occasionally other puzzles he was trying out but not enough for his hunger. He designed his first puzzle which was a box in 1995 but didn’t have the tools t or the knowledge to make it. All this came in 2001-2002 when he found the "puzzling world of polyhedral dissections" of Stewart coffins in Johnrausch web site. Mike says for Stewart Coffin "He is a living legend"

After making some of Stewart coffins puzzles he started having his own ideas. In 2002 he made his own website www.Puzzzlevision.com In 2003 he joined Johnrausch web site. He participates in International puzzle parties every year. His dream is to write a book on his puzzles with jigs and tips and all the things that will help the enthusiastic puzzler to begin his own creations, like he did with stewarts books. He has made some puzzle exhibitions and an article was written for him in Games magazine July 2007 issue by Tom Cutrofello. http://www.gamesmagazine-online.com/indexJuly07.html

Mikes favorite lines in Stewarts book is this:

“What unknown woodworkers in what distant lands may find it useful for making puzzles Finally ,and most important of all,encourage them to invent their own new and original designs following some of the guidelines I have set forth. (Puzzle craft 1985 edition)

Mike joined the cubicdissection to spread these reasons all over the world through his puzzles , and like he always says "Puzzling makes a better world".
