Heart Breaker Puzzle (Iron Heart)

myminifactory

When I was a wee lad, my grandfather had a cast iron version of this puzzle in his livingroom. It became kind of a rite of passage that us kids would have to each complete the puzzle on our own without any help. I have now recreated it for the masses. I looked online, and apparently this puzzle is called "Heart Breaker" or "Iron Heart". I found several variations of it. The idea is simply to separate the heart from the other piece (although since they print as separate pieces, I guess the goal for you will be to put them together.. unless you can find someone who knows how to put it together for you before you start) This should obviously not involve any breaking or flexing of the material.. remember, this was cast iron. If you don't find this puzzle challenging enough, maybe hand it to an 8 year old :)
