One SwitchEasy Nude UltraClear for iPhone 4, and some friggin’ iPod socks.

I’ve worked with Apple gear for over three years now, and I’ve wanted
Apple (iPod) socks for a good portion of that time – they always
seemed an Apple oddity to me, that one accessory that didn’t sell too
well because they only came in a pack of 6 and cost some exorbitant
amount.

Finally, they are mine.

Cue maniacal laughter.

Michigan machinist GarE Maxton makes many different interlocking solid puzzles of this type, but this one, which he calls The Intimidator, is his masterpiece. Starting the disassembly process requires a special key. Once diassembled, about 20 of the pieces can be recombined to make a functioning single-shot pistol. Other parts of the puzzle separately and securely store “a customized set of tools, all necessary hardware, 45 caliber bullets, a standard sight, a laser sight, a cannister containing black powder pellets, a secure storage area for 209 shotgun primers, a spent primer removal tool and a ramrod for loading the bullets.”
