I know that some people in this section are also interested in wooden puzzles. A couple of hours ago I went to a medeival fair and met the most amazing craftsman named Torbjörn Sundström. I just could not believe the tools he built himself from ancient designs to produce amazing impossible looking objects.

I bought this one from him, which is seamless

and I wish to some day buy some of his more intricate work, such as the unbelievable objects found at

It was quite an experience being able to hold these objects in my hand to examine them closely.

I've seen the arrow through bottle versions before, but I like the fact that the chalice and the arrow are both made of wood. The rings are a nice touch.

Those are very nice! I am a woodworker also so I know firsthand the time & effort it takes to make very nice pieces like his. Much respect!
