This puzzle intimidates me, especially after reading Brian’s comments! I’ve yet to find the first move of disassembly..

Here's what Brian said: Please visit Wood Wonders to stay informed of his wonderful puzzles!
“When my friend Ken Irvine said that he had not solved this puzzle after a good bit of time, I knew I was in trouble. I already had a batch of these on my bench after Andrew recommended that it. Well, after assembling and disassembling them (several times each) I must say, Ken was right. I knew the solution and even made a tool to aid in the solving and it was a bear! Even putting them back to gather was tricky. It's important to note that there are no rotations to solving this puzzle. For a real challenge try doing it without the tool provided. I couldn't do it! I have also included extra balls and ball bearings as I'm sure you will lose one or two when they suddenly pop out and role across your floor, never to be seen again. Made from Redheart, Yellowheart, Curly Maple and Curapay. These puzzles also have a snug fit and are not recommended for high humidity locations.”
