Ring Bracelet is based on an
idea by Carl Hoff. Carl's idea was to have a puzzle ring, in which the set of rings is linked in a loop, similar to
Weave Five, such that the scrambled puzzle can be worn as a bracelet. He calculated that 10 rings would be needed for this. Bram Cohen analysed what the order of the rings should be in the solved state. Oskar found a weave that worked, and he produced a few prototypes to perfect the design. This is the second prototype, which has three layers of weave, making it a bit more robust than the
first prototype.
