a LEGO puzzle/fidget toy I had made a while back, seeing the Toys and Games contest reminded me of this and I thought I'd post it here. It has one "solved" state, but there are any number of ways to arrange it! if you want to make it more of a fidget toy, you can swap the blue pins with 3 or 4 long LEGO axles for a looser fit. the puzzle is to get it to the shown configuration without separating any parts from the pins.

Supplies

All LEGO parts shown in the above photo

Subassemblies, Assemble!

Pretty self explanatory, all blue pins go into axle holes on all 16 of the connectors

Another Step of Subassemblies...

Take two of the sub assemblies you made in the previous step and put them together as shown, you should have four at the end.

Built!

Fidget Toy

Change the pins for axles to make it more of a fidget toy, the easiest way for me to get the proper alignment is to lay it out in a "snake" and then close the loop. This can be worn as a bracelet for easy fidget storage.

Solve, Fidget and Enjoy!!!
