Briquet



This is a briquet.I first saw this type at the OAPC. I designed a symmetric layout for this.The opening is easy,but the difficulty rises in the second half.The empty space in the middle did not go wasted. Rules:
Place 2 sets of 6 rectangular slabs of 1x3 size ,without touching,each slab having a different permutation of the numbers 1,2,and 3.One set should be horizontally placed ,and the other vertically.

  1. You forgot to explain grid clues. But I'm guessing they're the sums of the numbers in the edge-adjacent squares. Also, can equal numbers in different briquets touch?

  2. No two numbers from different briquets can touch.Briquets are rectangles that do not touch at all.Yes,the clues are sums of numbers in adjacent cells.
