Description:
Coathanger is a complicated puzzle requiring not only logical and creative thinking, but manual dexterity as well. Virtually the entire length of the cord is needed to remove the floating ring from the puzzle.

The Coathanger puzzle was patterned after the Sydney Harbour Bridge and was intended as our exchange puzzle for the 2007 puzzle convention held in Australia, but was actually used as our exchange puzzle at the 2008 puzzle gathering in Prague.
