Description

There are 159 solutions to fit the 11 pieces in the tray so that they fill the tray. There are even more ways to fit all 12 pieces into the rectangular tray, if you can just figure out how!
Goal
The first goal of the puzzle is to fit the 11 larger pieces into the tray in a 6x8 grid (159 solutions).
The second goal is to fit all 12 pieces into the rectangular tray. (3137 solutiins).
