Rupture (2014)

RELEASED: 11.21.2014 PRODUCED: 45 Copies DESIGNER: Dan Fast CRAFTSMAN: Eric Fuller MATERIAL: Maple, Walnut, Yellowheart, Paduak COMMENTS: Dan's new puzzle is aptly named; it's very difficult and may rupture your brain! With a super tricky level 21.7, this puzzle is no joke. The four internal burr pieces interact with the three looped cage pieces to create a series of gates. The interaction creates an evolving mechanism that contains circles and dead ends. Simply disassembling this puzzle is a challenge! Finely crafted from several complimentary hardwoods, the construction is in keeping with our high standards at cubicdissection. The cage pieces are shouldered for strength, and the burr pieces milled from solid sticks. Fit is excellent, precise but with a bit of room to compensate for unusually dry shop conditions during construction. 45 copies were made for sale, each signed and dated. This puzzle is delivered assembled. SIZE: 2.25" PRICE: $59 (SOLD OUT) This item is sold out and no longer available. Our Marketplace is the best source for discontinued work.
