Cast Chain - Hanayama Metal Puzzle

Despite the fact the puzzle is visually unappealing as the rest, it is still a GREAT puzzle! and a must have for your collection! the solution will allude you for weeks to come!

A high quality, seemingly simple puzzle that I have not solved yet. I am a pretty good metal puzzle solver, but this is taking more time than usual. I recommend it quite highly. The Hanayama puzzles I have (5 of them) are similarly high quality, apparently simple, but not.

This puzzle looks easy and the concept behind it is. The hard part is getting the pieces how you want them. Would recommend it to anyone who loves puzzles!

This is a solid brain teaser. Relatively simple design with some distinct details not to be overlooked for the solution. Some diligence in this will prove necessary movements but the overall solution - as with all Hanayama puzzles - will surely require your diligence. The finish is fantastic with enough weight and grip to prevent fumbling fingers from dropping and not show wear n tear from the hours it'll take to solve. Hanayama rates it at a 6. However, I feel it was more a 4-5. Of course that's always dependent on you level of solving prowess. Overall, glad I have it in my collection.
