This was shot for any customer that has one and took it apart. If you want to see them being made, check this video out. Another machining video will be posted shortly.

My old buddy Curly said "Oh, a wise guy huh!?!" Another great, simple, complex project Joe. Pretty cool

I have seen your old puzzle videos. It all makes sense. You are an alien.

This was so satisfying to watch. I would want to make one with alternating stainless steel and brass pieces for the contrasting colours.
(or anodise half the aluminium pieces in one colour and half the pieces in another colour. Maybe in red and green, just in time for Christmas ).

And off to find the dimensions...

Ya just never know what you're gonna learn, when you tune into Joe π.
hello from Wisconsin! Thanks again

[dlwilliams]

Joe, your brain works differently than the rest of us! Well done, sir!

[DonDegidio]

Hi Joe,
Even watching you do it, don't think I could complete either puzzle. 🙂 You and your family stay safe.

this is bonkers - i have the 12 piece, i never would guess it would be possible to put another two pieces in and have it still lock and have symmetry . also the way i do it is different to this way, but either way i would have never figured it out without vids like these

[dcraig]

I'd pick one up if you ever did another run

[mikeshort]

Are you going to make them again? I would love to get some

I used to have a similar puzzle when I was a kid in plastic. it wound up getting me into many more.. until I was about 14... They came assembled, no instructions, and it was fun just taking them apart, then learning to reassemble them.

[gentharris]

I have one of these and I thought I would never get it back together the first time!
They are very nicely made!!!! Thanks Joe😁

Video on Reddit I bumped into tonight called "12 identical pieces form a puzzle" located in the 'oddly satisfying' section of that wormhole website. Made me chuckle and smile a bit.

Beautiful puzzle, I’d like to get one for myself as a Christmas present 😎 You do wonderful precision work, I’ve been watching regularly since I saw you make those tiny Christmas ornaments. Your narration is great also, it adds so much perspective. Thanks for all the videos!

I don't have a mill, but I guess the bandsaw and file will help me stay busy this Winter. I'm assuming the stock size doesn't matter as long as all the proportions are the same?

[stephanmantler]

Planning to buy my first mill soon. Looks like making myself a set will be a good project to practice on!

[steventarr]

Great fun, both in quick construction and putting it together. I suggest rubber bands to hold the 14 piece together near the end.

[paddlefaster]

Is this one of your designs Joe? Very clever puzzle.

[angelramos-]

Yes, very interesting.That takes me back to RUBI´S CUBE some 50 years ago.I need to watch all the videos.Thank you.
