Description
Padlock – Advanced Take Apart Puzzle
Padlock is a cast-metal take-apart puzzle designed by JinHoo Ahn and produced by Hanayama. Its lock-like outline conceals tightly interlocked elliptical and circular forms.
Separate the interlocked pieces, then rebuild the padlock-shaped arrangement. The challenge is to understand how the curved parts can move relative to one another, not to use the object as a working security lock.

Why You'll Enjoy It:
