18 matchsticks aka 18 nails aka 18 toothpicks


It’s a while ago we had matchstick puzzles, so here’s one again. And yes, you are perfectly right, matches are on the way out with electric cooking and all such. Luckily, you can use nails or toothpick sticks instead. I mentioned it in a previous post and I’m now also mentioning it in the title of the post.

In the image below you see 18 matchsticks aka nails aka toothpicks making up six squares. Now re-arrange the 18 matchsticks to make twenty.

New puzzles are published at least twice a month on Fridays. You can check your solution here.
