Description
Nutcase – Expert Take Apart Puzzle
Nutcase is a cast-metal take-apart puzzle designed by Oskar van Deventer and produced by Hanayama. Its nut-and-bolt form contains two related challenges rather than a single separation task.
Disassemble the puzzle to remove the small nut, then put it back together. For a further challenge, change the lettering arrangement from nut-case to case-nut. Both goals depend on understanding the interlocking construction.
