Never Mind the Ball Locks. Here's The Gob Stopper...
A weighty 12 piece hex burr puzzle in an attractive configuration!
To accomplish making this engineering challenge, each hex piece is milled from solid brass approximately 6 cm long. The hex puzzle is assembled and placed in a lathe in a specific orientation (there is only one!) and then machined. Each piece is then tumbled to ensure every edge is gently rounded. The extended tumbling with additional abrasives means the colour of the brass is a little darker than other Two Brass Monkey puzzles. The finished puzzle has a real heft to it, as is similar in weight to the signature Brass Monkey series designs.
