      My nephew gave me a metal puzzle and I couldn't solve it, but I could impress him with modeling it within a few minutes ๐Ÿ˜‰

      "within a few minutes"? ๐Ÿ˜ฒ ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘

        3 lines, 3 arcs, one mirror, one circle and one follow me ๐Ÿ˜Ž

                Now I feel doubly inadequate. . .I probably couldn't get a nice render like that, and I probably wouldn't be able to solve the puzzle either. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

                If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

                    So this is more a theoretical solution ๐Ÿ˜‰

                        I solved this very one in a few minutes. Needless to say it would take me longer to make it in Sketchup.

                        Arrrggghhh! Why won't it make a face!!! Stupid, no good piece of... Oh look! The line went to the wrong point. Whew... moving on. (My fights with sketchup.)
