A while back, I found a neat Redline-Glico advertising puzzle (another variation can be found here). The goal is to navigate a ring into its home location. The design comes from an 1892 patent where you must put a ring through the bull's nose. Redline-Glico was a British petroleum and motor oil company that merged in 1931, so the puzzle was made sometime thereafter. The walls of the maze are not deep enough, which makes it easy to cheat. So I thought it would be nice to 3d print a non-cheatable version with deeper troughs. This is my faithful reproduction of the puzzle (as best I could do).

Goal

Get the ring into the hole marked "Home". 

Printing

I printed the plate in 2 colors by adding a Pause in the print and changing filaments since I don't have an AMS. The lettering is raised so you could also print it in one color, but I think it really pops with the 2 colors. 

Metal Ring

I included a ring that can be 3d printed, but the puzzle is much nicer with a metal ring (the printed ring doesn't move as easily through holes and is bendable). You'll want a 25 mm (outer diameter) ring with 2mm thickness. I ordered mine on Amazon here. I was able to bend the gap wider using my hands so that it can fit on the plate.

Bonus Gift

But what do I do with those 24 extra rings, I hear you say. Not to fret - one thing you can make is a set of Tumbing Rings , an early mechanical illusion. Quite a nice fidget toy! I followed this video to make it.
