A CNC Puzzle Work of Art Fit for James Bond

Last modified: February 20, 2024

Suppose you're an artist proficient in CNC and you enjoy creating three-dimensional puzzles. What would be the pinnacle of your artistic practice?

For GarE Maxton of Carson City, Nevada, his latest project is called "The INTIMIDATOR".  It's a metal 3D puzzle with over 135 pieces that can be re-assembled to make a .45 caliber muzzle loading pistol.  Here is GarE demonstrating his amazing art work:

Special features include choice of manual or laser site, a magnetic key to unlock the puzzle, a custom hex tool needed for assembly/disassembly, and hidden compartments to hold the caps (shotgun primers) and other materials needed to fire the pistol.

Here are some more pictures of this piece:
