Variant note
The preserved Crafty Puzzles solution labels 12 components: A1–A4, B1–B2, C1–C2, D1–D2, E and F. Other unrelated mechanical puzzles have also been sold under the name “Supernova”, so compare the diagram before following these instructions.
Important Supernova variant warning
SiamMandalay has sold wooden puzzles named Supernova, so the name is a genuine external match. However, the preserved Crafty Puzzles instruction sheet explicitly shows a 12-component version, while a historical SiamMandalay article describes a different high-level 18-piece Supernova. A current same-name product page does not by itself prove identical internal geometry.
Do not interchange solution sequences solely because the name matches. Use the 12-piece Crafty Puzzles diagram on this page only when your component shapes agree with it.
This page therefore acknowledges the SiamMandalay name match while deliberately retaining the archived 12-piece variant as a separate verified record.
Complete Supernova solution
The preserved instruction material is shown below. No additional assembly steps have been invented where the source material does not state them.
