Can you insert the dime into the large circular area?  The 10 cent challenge is to see whether or not you can do it in 5 minutes.  Very few people will accomplish this!  It's a lot harder than it may look......

This puzzle is related to the very popular 10 Penny puzzle, but it is more difficult.

The puzzle was created by Dave Janelle, and is based on circle packing mathematics where the area of each piece increases by an area equal to the #1 circle.  It is believed to have only one solution.

Pieces are laser cut and etched for accuracy.  Base is floorboard for stability and scratch resistance.  Pieces are alder and maple, though these woods may vary.
